    Makeup game against the Braves on Thursday. That will make 24 straight games without a day off before the break.

    The break can't come soon enough. Hope it gets them healthy and rejuvenated.

    Lackey is off to a great fucking start. 3 walks in the first, 26 pitches. I'm gonna call it now. Finnegan is gonna carry a no-hitter into the 6th for Cinci.

    Nothing like serving up a 2-run homer with 2 outs on an 0-2 count. Fuckin bum Lackey.

    I prefer the winning cubs as opposed to the shit these pitchers are doing now. At least they all suck at the same time and they can work it out of their systems now before the break.

    Good way to get the crowd back into the game joe. Might put some life into the cubs bats.

    Baez and bryant back to back.

    Bryant is on fucking fire this month. Did I hear Kasper correctly? Major League leading 25th for bryant?

    It's unbelievable to me that major-league hitters don't know how to lay down a sacrifice bunt. Baez should be taken out of the game for that ridiculousness.

    I hated the call to begin with. His bat has been hot, dumb call to bunt. Take your 3 shots to get 1 hit with him then top of order vs giving up an out.

    Absolutely not a bad call. First and second, nobody out, you bunt. Period. Get your runners in scoring position so a fly ball can score a run. So they walk bryant to load the bases. Look who's up next, rizzo. I'd take my chances with that any day over letting go baez swing a bat. Bottom line is, get the fucking bunt on the ground.

    Nothing like giving up a fucking 3-run homer to a kid that has now hit exactly 6 dingers in his 3 year career. Unfuckingreal.
  • HesCalledDyerHesCalledDyer Posts: 16,435
    The Reds have the worst bullpen in MLB and they are outbullpenning us two days in a row.

    It's starting to get ugly in here. :giggle:

    Not good at all. Bad enough getting swept by a decent ny team but losing a series at home vs last place cinci, unacceptable.

    20 games over .500
    9 game lead over the Cardinals
    And I am losing faith.

    How would this team do right now if the playoffs were today?
    How would they do against Washington, the Mets, or the Dodgers?

    My guess is they would get their asses handed to them.

    Wild Card? Right?
    I could have mentioned the Giants....But FUCK THE GIANTS!!!!

    What is the difference between a Giants fan and a carp?
    One is a scum sucking bottom feeder, the other is a fish.

    And the bullpen strikes again! What is this? Rondon's 5th straight blown save?
