semiotter Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 Hey everyone, about the time I think they going in the tank. They come back on the road in the Division and sweep the Stros and then start off on the right track in St. Louie. Is this team for real or what??I hope so because it would be nice for a change to have something to cheer during the summer for a change. Go REDS keep up to fine job....... Quote
bengalboomer7 Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 I still don't think we have a playoff team, but we'll get to watch in enjoyment for awhile. Quote
jditty47 Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 hopefully we'll be fighting for the wildcard all year...i think the cards wont falter even without puljols. but ya, i agree...we play great some days, and terrible others...not a sign of a playoff team. Quote
Stripes Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 We added one more worthy pitcher in the offseason (Arroyo) and I think that will warrant a little extra time to enjoy Reds games. Rather than running out of gas in early June, we'll run out of gas in early July, or something similar.If we do make the playoffs somehow, we'd have to have the worst playoff pitching staff in a decade.

ArmyBengal Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 I would like to reiterate, Jason LaRue SUCKS BALLS !!! Thank you...WHODEY !!! Quote
AGrizzlyBaer Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 it seems like they are hitting the pattern yet again... Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 Well after winning 8 straight, they've managed to lose all but 2 of their last 11 games. It's just rediculous !!!WHODEY !!! Quote
Stripes Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 Why have the Reds played so much better on the road as of yet? We sucked on the road last year, and our winning at home is the only thing that kept us afloat with 70+ wins. Now it's backwards. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 21, 2006 Report Posted June 21, 2006 I think that some of that may be because the Great American Ball Park is suck a hitters park and especially the deep ball. Couple that with our pitchers having the uncanny ability to give up more than their fair share of homers and I think we may be onto something. I do however, think this can and will change as the pitching staff improves or (gulp) worsens, but that is just an idea...WHODEY !!! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Well, the Reds pulled another one out their asspiece last night after Hammond f*cked up another good start... I'll take the win, especially over the Mets at this point, but our relievers blow monkey balls !!!WHODEY !!! Quote
bengalboomer7 Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Good game, though. I know Billy Wagner isn't what he used to be, but with the Astros lurking and getting Clemens back, the Nl wildcard has really tightened up.(Yes, I know it's too ealry to be talking about the wildcard) Quote
bengalindian Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 I think the Reds will be up and down the rest of the season. The new owners did promise that they would go out and get the people the Reds need if they were still in contention at the All-Star Break (which they will be). So I'm hoping they go get Zito or D-Train and say goodbye to Larue and/or Dunn.P.S. Brandon Phillips and David Ross were amazing pickups by Wayne Krivsky. Quote
AGrizzlyBaer Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 man they still are right in the race for the central 1.5 back of st. louis Quote
bengalindian Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 Just like the Reds to lose to KC. Hmmm, weird....the bullpen blew it again! Quote
