Last night the Reds won 3-2 in 11 despite only having 3 hits The Reds make back end of the rotation pitchers look like Cy Young or Walter Johnson regularly. Â It will be a miracle if they reach .500, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted July 28 Report Share Posted July 28 Once again today's managers ruin a great outing by a starting pitcher. David Bell takes out Hunter Green after 7 innings of two hit shutout pitching. He brings in Cruz who hasn't pitched well lately. Reds up 1-0 but the bullpen has given up the lead on a based loaded strikeout but a wild pitch and a bases and added walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He keeps bringing in Cruz and Sims who are awful. For some reason he doesn't use Moll in late game situations. It was also idiotic to take out Green after 7 because he only had 100 pitches. In a 3 game series the Reds scored 4 runs on 13 hits Edited July 28 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted July 28 Report Share Posted July 28 I'm all "Jazzed" up, are you all Jazzed up?? Yanks traded for the Marlins Jazz Chisolm, don't know where he will play as the outfield will be crowded. Lot of trade rumors surrounding the Yankees, but as usual, I think Cashman sh*ts the bed and won't address the real need of another pitcher and a closer, Clay Holmes aint it. IMO, he is Aroldis Chapman part 2!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't understand why they keep trying to have Martinez start games. His ERA as a starter is 7.83 but as a reliever it is around 1.80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stlboiler23 Posted July 29 Report Share Posted July 29 Love the Cards trade. Fedde has been a stud and Pham can help against LHP.  Will miss Edman but not having to give up any prospects was clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinals gave up nothing right? White Sox GM needs to have head examined.....and while he's on a stupor I'd call the South Side and see if he wants to give up GC for a player to be named later.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a five inning starter, but anymore that’s okay if you have a deep bullpen.  I guess the Brewers figure that they do since they’re leading the division.
