Brewers have had 25 baserunners this game and we are in the 7th inning
Votto has been lazy....balks, 4 hit batters, 8 walks
only lost 12-1 last night
On a good note Jay Bruce is leading all of MLB in slugging % when trailing by 7 or more runs

Reds got blistered in game 1 by 11 runs, gave up 25 baserunners in game 2 and now it's Leake vs the hottest hitting team in baseball. He'll struggle with lefties and Braun, Lucroy and Ramirez will wear him out.
Reds lose 9-3

Red's suck. So glad I didn't go to that game last night. Just watching it on tv was enough for me to want to blow my brains out.

The past two nights they have had their awesome fireworks display....but waiting thru those two games had to have been the worst.

Ok....Leake throws 28 pitches and a couple seeing eye singles keep him out there and in the bottom of the fist against a pitcher no one has ever seen and has a crazy unorthodox motion and Phillips and Votto swing weakly at the first pitch for little league easy grounders? What the hell? Worst gamelan ever...no one cares? When Phillips leads off he almost always not only watches the first pitch but just stands there. Votto hacking at a first pitch of a new pitcher. Seems unbelievable or bought off or something.

Just need to blow this team up. We've done absolutely nothing with Votto Bruce Phillips in 5+ years. That's not going to magically change.Ironman92;1738864 wrote:Ok....Leake throws 28 pitches and a couple seeing eye singles keep him out there and in the bottom of the fist against a pitcher no one has ever seen and has a crazy unorthodox motion and Phillips and Votto swing weakly at the first pitch for little league easy grounders?

None of those guys have that "it" factor at all.SportsAndLady;1738867 wrote:Just need to blow this team up. We've done absolutely nothing with Votto Bruce Phillips in 5+ years. That's not going to magically change.

Lose all 3 games and score a total of one run when they were not already behind by at least 5 runs.

THe second half has all the signs of being historically bad.
In the paper yesterday Price mentioned how he is a little concerned about the innings for the young pitchers. I could see them shutting down some of them and/or skipping innings. If that happens that will bring up even more young guys who may not be ready.
Or they could find a diamond in the rough. The reds are pretty silent right now and want to keep a good face on it with the ASG looming. I could see some explosions afterwards thoguh
