Hoping for a spilt against this juggernaut of an offense.

Bruce, Phillips, Duvall, Suarez and Barnhart are carrying the offense. Reds are #1 in MLB in % of strikeouts vs RH pitching. Less striking out is one noticeable positive so far this season.

Over/Under

Reds wins 1.5
Phillips hits 4.5
Reds bullpen HR allowed 4.5
Bryant HR 2.5
Rizzo RBI 4.5

Every Reds pitcher so far has an ERA tonight of over 10. And each succeeding pitcher tops the one before him!

"He deserved better" ----that was actually said. He gave up 6 batted balls that inning over 105 mph off the bat

Wonder if Arrieta is liking it in Cincy more than 12 months ago?

Yeah, Deadspin verified it as real. I guess I can understand. After last year ended, I was definitely more in the "Pirates made playoffs for third year in a row" train than the "Pirates just got utterly schooled in their one-game playoff trial run game for the second year in a row" one. Gotta look at the bright side; they were patient at the plate!!!

They had an IG post with the same thing but after it it said "but seriously, congrats to Jake Arrieta on an awesome performance."

Yeah Lisa Braun said she did it as a joke. Being playful about not getting a hit.

My Reds fan buddy is developing serious HATE for Hoover. I was over at his place for beers last night and let's just say the time Hoover was in the game was quite the fun time to be alive!

Predictors have the Reds as THE worst team in MLB.
