No fucks given. Most players are hitting, playing good defense, stealing bases, pitching good, late bullpen great and rest of bullpen formidable.

I do not know how long this will last...but this is great to watch.

Go Reds!

Too early to say either way. I'm leaning towards just a hot start to the year and the league will eventually figure them out. Especially the young guys.

But either way, it's exciting baseball and it's great not to watch BP pop up on the first pitch out of the zone, Bruce go 1/5 with a solo HR in the 8th inning of an 8-0 game, and overall predictable baseball.

I do agree. Guys you get sick of over the years (Phillips, Bruce) are gone and whether they can keep it up or not, it's nice to see guys who want it taking advantage. Lets be real, Schebler probably isn't a starter, Duvall, Cozart and Suarez are all hitting over their heads, but you never know what will happen if Mesoraco returns and some of the pitching comes back. They do have some arm talent.

Over their heads but Suarez especially is having great great at bats and really seeing pitches. Crazy enough Votto is the only one with poor approaches...but he is showing the signs of doing what he does.
