He also has a 42% strikeout ratio. Never been a Happ guy never will be...but what did we do? Signed him to a big 3 or 4 year extension. If Happ could play in GABP every game he would be a HOF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Not a good start for the Reds in St. Louis down 4-0 going to the bottom of the 3rd. Reds can get runners on but can't get them in. All 2 innings they had runners in scoring position and less than two outs but didn't score. De La Cruz is human after all with him striking out I'm 5 straight at bats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Reds starting pitching is abysmal. Lively was going well but his last 3 starts has been bad. Weaver and Williamson has been pretty bad as well. Since Abbott 6 shutout innings, the Reds starters ERA has been over 12 in the last 4 games.

IU Scott Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Sometimes David Bell is such an idiot. Reds cut the lead to 5-2 in the 7th but he kept Lively in the game. He just just gave up a 2 run home to make it 7-2. That was the 3rd two run homer he gave up tonight. Also in the top of the 7th the Reds had scored two runs and had runners on 1st and 3rd and two outs. Benson tried to steal second but was thrown out and had MClain up.

rico Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 (edited) Alexis Díaz, RHP, RedsThe Reds have a number of potential trade chips, including infielder Kevin Newman and right-hander Buck Farmer, but Díaz is the one coveted by many teams around the league. The younger brother of Mets reliever Edwin Díaz, Alexis has pitched to a 0.82 ERA over his past 10 outings entering Wednesday, striking out 20 batters in 11 innings while earning seven saves. He’s under club control through 2027, but the Reds could likely bring back a haul of talent if they were to part with the 26-year-old. https://www.prosportsdaily.com/articles/8-potential-mlb-trade-chips-whove-gotten-hot-781253.html Edited June 10, 2023 by rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happ. I'd love to know the run support stats for Stroman. There was a stretch in all of May where I felt like we gave him 1-2 runs each start max. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats jmo, though.. and yes, I'm sure the Cubs will botch his contract. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I just don't understand social media He's always been very active on twitter. More so than most MLB players. Just like any idiolect sometimes putting things out there in the public puts the pressure back onto the Cubs. I mean he's our best pitcher and should be a cornerstone of the rebuild (ala Lester when he took the leap before things happened) but yet the Cubs who will be going on their 7th year of not winning a playoff series keep tripping over themselves. Every day/month/year that goes by I realize more and more how much Jed hung on to Theo's coattails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landrus13 Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 I am fully expecting the Reds to win this division in 2023. And yes, that hurts a little as a Cards fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
