Nice job making up a five run deficit against Zambrano. I'm watching Lou's postgame press conference. He's killing his team. It might be a long year in Chicago.

were you able to see it? i was listening to it until zambrano hit the home run. what happened in the fifth?

Anytime a team's best case scenario includes the words "call up" three times, I don't like their chances of winning a division.

Well what is your perfect scenario for this team?

The Cubs misplayed a couple of balls, the middle of the order got some hits, then the Cubs bullpen walked the ballpark.

St. Louis and Milwaukee play poorly, the back end of the Reds rotation pitches roughly.500 ball, they win 87 games and are in contention during the last week.

I do not know why, but Milwaukee scares me.

They're the only team in the division with any quality depth in their starting pitching. That's why they should concern everyone in the Central.

Pinella had a breakdown after this failure.

Milwaukee is my pick to win the division. Reds come in second and the cards in third.

Would any one else give their left nut for Todd Jones?

I know I would!

No. Just another old, washed up reliever. He's the gringo version of Jose Mesa.

I never said it was an ideal situation, but do you have a better option?

:good!:

Go with the guys you've got. I certainly wouldn't trade a player of any value for Todd Jones.

The guys we got suck. I dont think Todd Jones would be the answer tho

No worse than Todd Jones and they don't require giving something up.

 

[vols kick balls]

which is why i said i dont think todd jones is the answer

He gets the start looking for his first win

 

[Cincy Vol o5]

The Reds were only in the race last year because the Cardinals tanked in September. Everyone seems to be forgetting Cincinnati finished with a losing record last year, with their top two starting pitchers having career years.

No, we led the division for a good part of the year. St. Louis was only in contention because we tanked after the break.

The losing record was indicative of how badly the team played after the break.

No, the losing record was indicative of what kind of team the Reds put on the field.

i blame a lot of it on narron's constant, and absolutely stupid at times, lineup changes.
