ArmyBengal Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 The Reds are back home starting tomorrow with the next three games against the Cubs.Looks like Arroyo, Bailey, and Cueto are the starters for this series.Man if Votto keeps up this pace, the Reds are going to continue to be a force going forward.He's batting .358 with an OBP of .484.How nice was it to see Cozart go 4-5 yesterday ??I was happy for him and hope to see more of that.GO REDS !!!

skyline Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Series actually starts tomorrow night, I believe.But yeah...they're looking strong right now. Against bad teams, granted, but Harvey is the real deal and they managed 4 off of him. Why anyone would throw Votto a fastball down the middle on a 3-0 count is beyond me.

ArmyBengal Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Yep, fixed the original post. I missed that one. Good catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Good win to continue the domination of the Cubs. I'd love to see another sweep, though today's pitching matchup figures to be tough. I trust Bailey to give us a good effort though.Votto is back in the MVP race suddenly, and frankly he might be on top of it. Now that he is starting to get that slugging percentage up around .550, his OPS has climbed to 1.046 -- easily tops in the NL. The only things holding him back are RBIs (a near-useless statistic anyways), but even those are starting to come in droves.The NL Central is going to be a dog fight all year. The Pirates are at it again too... we'll see if they can get through the entire year this way as they've failed to do the last two seasons.

skyline Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Marshall back to the DL It's a good thing Ondrusek seems to have regained his form. I have no confidence in Broxton right now at all. His fastball last night was only topping out around 91 or so, which has me very nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted May 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Yep, Broxton isn't looking like the guy who was given up on by the Royals and out to prove them wrong like we saw when he came over.He's looking like the guy who was given up on.

ArmyBengal Posted May 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Reds win 5-2 today with Bailey getting the win.There was even a nice squeeze play if you missed the game today.Going for the sweep tomorrow with Cueto back on the mound.

skyline Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 And the Cardinals finally lost. The NL Central is ridiculous this season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 I found the real Ondrusek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 I found the real Ondrusek. So glad. That's the kind of loss that makes you sick to your stomach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted May 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Never been a fan of Ondrusek. NEVER.That being said, Frasier didn't help in the least with his fielding efforts yesterday.Oh well. Series win. Moving on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
