    Ohhh man, I hate Javy Baez with a passion.
    So obviously he and Garret have a history and last time AG got suspended for 5 games for bullshit that MLB decided was instigating.
    What will happen to asshat Baez, now?

    I am all for letting dudes celebrate but this is over the top.  I'm glad Garrett didn't go beat the shit out of Javy, although with how the bullpen has dissolved again I guess it would not be much of a loss and would be worthwhile to see that jackwagon get called on his mouthy bitch act.


    I like baseball rivalries.  Too bad neither team is worth a shit this year.

    Baez is an asshole.

    What a fuckface. It’s a lazy flyball. Not like he hit it 500’. 

    Yadi’s no angel, but this type of fuckery is long way past anything he’s ever done.

    Great to see Votto on a tear. 
    Stinks the ownership is weak and they dumped so much headed into this year -- if they had any bullpen this team would not be bad and would be right there for the division.

    Votto is interviewed last night about his hot streak, his 2 homer game, his beauty of a catch in foul ground and throw out at the plate....and he ends by apologizing for arguing with Umps and breaking his bat recently.  Says that is not what he believes in and he doesn't want kids in Cincinnati to think this is how they should act.

    Dude is hilarious, humble, and a really good leader.  Wish he had a team around him for more than a few years of his career. 
    Will be a border-line HoF player, of course as a huge fan I will support him in this but I think it will be close.
    If he can have another good year after this one it would help.

    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Dang, tough call. It could really go either way. If he can get to 400hr and blow past 2500 hits fairly easily it’d be hard to keep him out. Should be at 2k already but for the COV. Surprising he only has one GG. RBI numbers are criminally(Reds’ management) average.

    The management brutalized him over the years for prioritizing getting on base over RBIs.  His advanced stats for a spell were only in the same range as Bobblehead Bonds.  An on base machine.
    He was robbed of an MVP one year but even though he is one of my all time favorites I do think he will be a very close call. 
    Will likely depend on how he wraps things up.
    Not the end of the world, Reds fans will always love him.  Sense of humor is top shelf....the guy is really smart but kind of a clown/joker.

    I'd say Votto's HOF chances are slim as of now, he'd need a couple more monster years and at 37, not sure that's likely.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    At some point I will go back and find an article I read this year sharing reflections from teammates on how much of a kook the guy is, in a good way.  Very unusual dude.

    Definitely not first ballot. But if he can stay on the ballot awhile he might have a chance. But there are people ahead of him that hopefully will get in.

    Another double homer game last night.
    Good to see it, and timely against those fucking chirpy Cubs.

    Fuck off, Cubbies!

    I agree on that, first ballot wasn't a thought.

    A bunch of the trolls were giving that info yesterday...

    Dude, Votto goes deep in his first at bat again! Six games in a row, 8 HRs. Locked in.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Is 8 still the record for Donnie Baseball & The Kid?  Or, did someone pass that?

    Record was 10 in 8 consecutive games I believe.
