Not a great feeling with Leake going....he cannot get out too many of their guys (Cutch, Harrison, Walker, Marte)

From Game 1 I was very disappointed in BP. Hitting was fine though he got robbed of 2 hits but when that game ended everyone was celebrating and happy as can be....BP never cracked a smile or said a word....just robotically went through the hand shaking/congrats we won line and went straight down the tunnel. I beyond being ready for him to move on.

I'm ready for BP to be gone as well.

I still like BP. If that attitude continues for a couple weeks and its hurting the team then trade him. Just don't think we would get anything and whoever plays 2nd would likely be a huge downgrade on both sides of the field.

BP was my favorite red for a long time. Pulling for leake, I think he could win 15-16 games.

Back to reality when our starter isn't named Cueto.

I'm thinking about a significant, significant wager on Friday's Marquis vs Wacha match-up.

Hoping Cole can make that step forward this year. So far, he's been in the 7IP, 2ER; 6IP, 3ER sort of path where he winds up with decent numbers but never was anything more than "good". He needs to move towards "great" this year for the team to be the division contender so many say they should be.

enjoy watching the poor mans greg maddux pitch.
BP is one of those guys who is great, when things are going good.

I can see him pouting becoming a problem when this team starts to struggle.

Future weather radar showed storms from like 7-30, then nothing for a few hours.

I imagine with a sellout crowd, or near sellout, they will let them linger for quite a long time.

It's going to be Marquis vs. Lackey and Cueto vs. Wacha.

I think Todd Frazier and the 3 spot are a nice combination. Dude is an animal right now.

Toddfather is the man. Leake is the opposite of the man right now.

Leake has nothing tonight and I told you he can't finish off the lefties of Pittsburgh

Ump isn't as generous as the other night either

All Reds runs this year have been scored by either home runs or the pitcher F-ing up. Sounds about right.

Looks like the Pirates have defensive catcher problems!

Leake got a gift strike on the first pitch to Walker and took advantage by parlaying it into a K.
