I had to suffer through Stubbs leading off for 4 years...prefer to watch Hamilton do the same.

Cozart is the 2nd worst choice after the pitcher for leading off

Votto at 1.36 walks per game played this season. Book it

In all reality, the lineup isn't awful. The rotation, when 100%, has some promise. The bullpen is going to lose a TON of games.

I think the Reds are going to be better than most think. Not gonna make the playoffs, but not so horrible that they should be relegated to AAA.

I'll say their W/L record will be better than last year, but that isn't very difficult to duplicate.

I think I could lead off 25 games this season and pitch 25 innings and Reds could beat last year's win total.

Took off work so I could go down Wednesday night and there's a 100% chance of rain. Fuck off.

Votto strikes out after being up 3-0 in pitch count. Cozart single-handedly saving team from being no hit.

We are gonna be so bad... made helickson look like a legit ace. Cozart the only player who has even hit a bad hard.

Will this be one of them? They kept the deficit from growing, but can they hold the lead?

BP figured the bullpen could hold a 4 run lead and he wanted to hurry up the game and get out of the cold.

Phillips gets thrown out at home by 20 feet in an inning that Cincy has fortunately blown it open.

8th inning heroics to start this season also. Hope the others work out better.

Pirates yesterday brought in closer Melancon and he made it very interesting with the tying run at the plate. Will the Reds use Hoover and get similar excitement?
