Odd man out right now with all position players being healthy and the team carrying 3 catchers. And, he still had minor league options.

IU Scott Posted June 21, 2023 Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 Abbott finally gave up some runs in his 4th start but still pitched well. 6IP, 3 runs, 4 hits, 0BB, 10K's. Gave up 3 so homers. Gibault got the win and he is now 8-1 which is impressive for a reliever this early in the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 If you draft a guy #1 and he barely hits .200 as a rookie and is then hitting .224 the next year, is it anything to worry about? Asking for a friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 After a day off to savor 11 straight wins, the Cincinnati Reds look to match their longest win streak in the modern era on Friday when they host another red-hot club, the Atlanta Braves.The Reds have taken over first place in the NL Central while the Braves, who have won eight straight, boast the best record in the NL East and the league overall.Entering this season, the Braves were expected to contend for another NL East title and their second World Series championship in three seasons. The Reds were coming off just the second 100-loss season in their long history.That makes what Cincinnati has accomplished in the past two weeks all the more remarkable. With a victory on Friday night, the Reds would match the 1957 and 1939 teams for the franchise's longest single-season winning streak since 1900. The team record in the modern era is a 13-game run that started in 1918 and ended in 1919.The Braves will send right-hander AJ Smith-Shawver (1-0, 2.03 ERA) to the mound in the series opener. Smith-Shawver will be making his fourth career start and his first vs. Cincinnati.The Reds will counter with right-hander Luke Weaver (1-2, 6.47 ERA),In six career appearances (five starts) vs. Atlanta, he is 1-3 with a 4.91 ERA.Weaver gave up a career-high-tying 10 hits in his most recent outing, on Sunday at Houston, when he allowed five runs in five innings. The Reds rallied from a 5-2 hole and beat the Astros 9-7 in 10 innings https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/teams-on-long-win-streaks-clash-as-reds-face-braves/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 Joel Luckhaupt@jluckhauptElly De La Cruz has not faced a pitcher who is younger than him all year (even in AAA).Today's Braves SP, AJ Smith-Shawver, is 10 months younger than EDLC.It'll be the first MLB matchup ever between a hitter & pitcher born in 2002 or later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 First inning finally over Reds down 5-0. Weaver threw 43 pitches. This what happens when you pitch a pitcher with a 6.78 ERA vs the best offensive team in baseball. His last 3 games his ERA was over 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
