Cincinnati Reds - 2018 Second Half Thread

Nice series win...again

Castillo was brilliant. 

The #Reds have acquired RHP Lucas Sims, RHP Matt Wisler and OF Preston Tucker from the Braves in exchange for OF Adam Duvall.

Dang I liked Duvall

Word is Sims is a likely starting pitcher in the rotation next year 🤷🏻‍♂️. I never know but knew Duvall was going somewhere.

I liked him and he had his place but an easy out way too often. Reds will have some pitifully producing outfield lineups out there the rest of the season

Best guesses on who else gets traded today?

Harvey would probably be the most likely candidate. Maybe Iglesias, but they'd need to get an absolute haul for that to make sense. Scooter could also go, but I don't see it happening.

I think Harvey is a lock. And that’s all. 

Crap, since Cleveland can't find an OF, they might give the Reds a minor leaguer for Hamilton as insurance in CF.

agree

1. Hamilton

2. Harvey

3. Iglesias

Hughes/Hernandez/Garrett ...all would help any bullpen to an extent

Ill be surprised if Scooter goes.

I think Harvey goes after trade deadline in August

Martin to Tribe....that moves Billy down the list and a no chance to Cleveland

Damn...Dodgers are going after Iglesias pretty hard it appears.

Must include Verdugo.

Must include Verdugo.

Knowing Reds it will be Joc Pederson

Ex-Reds related: Cueto to the DL, high probability he'll need TJ surgery.

Hate losses like tonight

Hate losses like tonight

Trying to hit HR in that park is a terrible plan

Damn, Bailey does the 8 inning CG for a loss. 

Bailey's last two starts after coming off the DL:

14.2 innings
4 ER
8 H
14 K
3 BB

Ervin looking like Winker....can hit, can’t firld well, throws poorly, bad base runner and slow

Votto just cannot read a damn ball off the bat

Casali bad base running

Horrid 2 game series
