I know your point on KB and it's well documented....but to have this many players perform this poorly?? I don't think anyone could see all of them at these levels....with the exception of us on this board. Haha. I'll say the same thing as I did in 2018. This wasn't on Maddon. Never was. Shoot even Chilli Davis said this about these guys at end of 18 as well. Have a young group of guys who had so much success early on they knew better than anyone else. Oh well. Thanks for the title. Multiple playoff appearances and division titles but time to blow this one up and start again with end of 23 being the goal to start winning playoff series again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 Reds with a walk off win in 10 against the Indians. Reds were down 2-1 in the bottom of the 9th with two outs and no one on. They ended up scoring a run to send it to extra innings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Little tidbit that maybe you guys caught already. Kevin Stallings, the basketball coach, has a son in the majors.  He’s on the Pirates and I think his name is Jacob (Stallings). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, but I hadn’t heard that.  It’s hard to believe when there are guys like Molina or Dan Vogelbach floating around lol.  I thought I heard Molina might be the slowest. I saw a sequence where he was on first and on a long double in the gap could only get to third.  The announcers said anyone else would have scored.  He then got stranded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep! Tell me about it. We unload our Cy Young candidate for AA talent at best....and piss the clubhouse off even more with some of the service manipulation. Great times at 1060 W.

IU Scott Posted April 20, 2021 Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 Louis Castillo came on with an era over 7 and gave up 3 in the first inning. He had been really had the lady two years and have to wonder what had happened to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) This umpiring crew in this Reds game is ridiculous. It had been pouring down rain for over an inning and had puddles in the infield. They should have delayed the game but they kept them out there. The Reds pitvhrtdcould not get a grip of the ball or get any traction on the mound. In the top of the 8th after the Reds walked in the go ahead run. After the Reds pitcher Simms kept throwing out each ball he was given and the manager complained long enough they finally delayed the game.  Edited April 21, 2021 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By what measure was Luis Castillo bad last season (2020)? His E.R.A - 3.21 MLB Average E.R.A. - 4.44 And, if I recall correctly, he got hit hard in a couple of starts that helped inflate that E.R.A., but in most of them, he was as good as Trevor Bauer,  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) Reds lose the suspended gameb5-4 to Arizona.n I was hoping lady years struggle for Surez was more to do with shoulder injury and the pandemic. So far this year his struggles continues with hitting .160. In this he he went 0-4 and 4 strikeouts so if he continues to struggle the Reds are in trouble.
