Kind of a hidden gem that most don't know about. Shhhh this comment will delete in 60 seconds. Haha. Less crowded. Easy place to get lost at for a few days. Happy for the Reds fans on here! Your team is still competing and winning. Mine? Every single loss is a reminder that our front office punted during the winter. Happy 4th of July to all! I’ll trade you Shildt for Ross. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlboiler23 Posted July 4, 2021 Report Share Posted July 4, 2021 I wasn’t sure before but now I’m convinced the Cards really don’t care about winning. After being subbed in late in the game last night and going 0-2 with 2 K’s, Matt Carpenter and his -0.7 WAR, 35% K-rate, and .588 OPS is hitting cleanup today. 🤮 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted July 4, 2021 Report Share Posted July 4, 2021 It is actually nice to see two pitchers Miley and Hendricks that no how to pitch. They don't just go out and try to strikeout every batter bit they know how to pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even during this losing streak, he keeps saying he likes how hard guys are fighting (he said this after they lost 7-2 to the Tigers lol). He’s delusional.

Hopefully the Reds will take advantage of this I think it's more of my own frustration with front office but Ross has made some moves and lineup cards that are making me curious about him as a manager. Of course I don't he should be judged with what he was given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our bullpen has been awesome this year so I get why he does it....but to lose 3 straight close game because starters pulled hurts to say the least. We have to be the only team in baseball history that loses 9 in a row after a no hitter was thrown. Haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rico Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal · 22h Will be interesting to see how borderline NL contenders approach the deadline. Six teams - CIN, CHC, WAS, STL, ATL, PHI - range from two games above .500 to two games below. CIN is the closest to a wild-card berth, 5 1/2 games behind SD.

Maybe I'm reading into things a bit much but Jed has made a couple comments in public about his displeasure with guys who haven't been vaccinated. Namely Rizzo. I could see him getting shipped because mainly you don't give $ to aging guys who might on the decline....and as I mentioned Jed hasn't been real happy about the clubhouse leadership which is essentially Rizzo. To me it should be total purge. The farm system has some guys (mostly pitching) coming up soon. Bite the bullet. Trade everyone. Go Padres or Theo route....and set this thing up for start of 2023 season. I'd much rather do that instead of watching guys I love bat .188 per month. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 Well the Stankees are sure trying my fandom. A couple of weeks ago, they were in the AL East fight. Now? They've are on a terrible losing streak, no thanks to Aroldis (washed up), Chapman. A few nights ago the Yanks had a 3 run lead against the LA Angels. In comes Chapman, and what does he do? Walks the first 3 batters and gives up a grand slam HR! The Angels scored like 9 runs in the inning to win 11-8. Then yesterday he comes in against the Mets and is the losing pitcher!
