ArmyBengal Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 With the day off today, maybe they can get use to being back in their own time zone huh ??Anyway, the Cubs come to town on Friday for a 3 game set and have been playing some good ball since Pinella called it quits.Cueto will be taking the mound in the starter and the Cubs will counter with Gorzelanny (7-7 3.70era).The Cardinals start a 4 game series tonight at the Nationals, so maybe we can pick up another half game tonight.The Nats haven't been playing very well at all lately, so the Reds need to keep up the winning back home.GO REDS !!!

ArmyBengal Posted August 26, 2010 Author Report Posted August 26, 2010 Look out, the Nats are up on the Cards 3-1... Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 Look out, the Nats are up on the Cards 3-1...Oh h*ll yeah! Go Washington! Quote
Stripes Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 8-5 Washington. It's hard to worry too much about the Reds when the Cardinals are so often blowing it. Quote
Stripes Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 10-8 Cards in the 9th. Relying on Washington to do anything was foolish anyways I suppose. Quote

Stripes Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 Washington tied it at 10 in the 9th. Neither team wants to win this game. Quote

Sea Ray Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 Washington tied it at 10 in the 9th. Neither team wants to win this game.Let's hope it goes about 18 innings Quote

The only thing I can come up with is the sweep early in the season that the put on the Reds. You have to remember that they have beaten the cards a few times this year also. From what I could find the Reds are 8-5 and the Cards are 6-3 against the Pirates, not much difference there. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Posted August 27, 2010 Yeah, I'd be more than happy to explain the comment,THE PIRATES SUCK !!!Sure, I'm happy they have beaten the Cards, but 43-84 ?? Wow, that just blows. Even crazier is, the Pirates haven't done anything in FOREVER and that organization still turns a really good profit. Quote

It's hard to worry too much about the Reds when the Cardinals are so often blowing it.Yet some doofus labels the Reds as frauds.You what's next right? Not that we won but that the Cards lost?from the St Louis Post Dispatch:The Cardinals have not won a series against a team with a .500 or losing record this month. They've lost or split series with the Chicago Cubs, the Milwaukee Brewers, the Pirates, the Houston Astros, and the currently .500 Florida Marlins. Those five teams are a combined 87 1/2 games out of first place. Not since sweeping the Pirates at the end of July at Busch Stadium have the Cardinals won a series against a team beneath them in the standings. And that's only half of it.http://www.stltoday....127992bc8b.html Quote

I didnt know you were so liberal. Oh no you don't....I have no issue with the business of the Pirates and those people turning a profit, I just find it hard to believe. There's a difference.They are starting to rank right up there with how Mike Brown has run the Bengals for so many years. Minus recent ones of course.The number was like 25 million in profit last year for the Pirates, if I heard correctly.Unreal... Quote
ArmyBengal Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Posted August 27, 2010 REMINDER:Tonight's game is being shown on WGN...GO REDS !!! Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 REMINDER:Tonight's game is being shown on WGN...GO REDS !!!So far so good! Reds just went up 2-0 on Jay Bruce's monster home run! Quote
Stripes Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Two dingers for Bruce, this one a three run shot. 5-1 Reds! Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Bruce goes yard AGAIN for a 3 run shot, followed by Valaika in his 1st MLB game!! Quote
semiotter Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Jay Bruce with another Clout. Wow now the new guy with a shot!!!!!Valaika. Wow! Quote
Stripes Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Admittedly my first reaction to seeing "Chris Valaika" in the lineup was "the f**k?"With a double and a homer, I think he's answered my question admirably. Quote
Stripes Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Three homers for Bruce! Holy crap! Quote
semiotter Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 So what's the word on Brandon? And OMG!!! Jay's in the ""Zone"" tonight. Could he hit 4??? Quote
semiotter Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Cueto with a good game going to I might add!! Good to see that from him. Quote
