ArmyBengal Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 Mike Leake takes the mound for the series opener against the Cubbies.GO REDS !!! Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 Our boys got off to a pretty good start in this series tonight! Gomes was awesome with 4 RBI's, and Leake even got one himself. The Reds really need to sweep this set of games with Chicago. Quote
Stripes Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 At least they seem to refuse to drop back below .500. It's still too early to be too concerned, but the division deficit has grown too large. Time to start winning, and today was good for that. Quote

It's still too early to be too concerned, but the division deficit has grown too large. Time to start winning, and today was good for that.Let's see how things look at the All Star break. Remember how the Reds came on late last season? Just remain within striking distance. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Posted June 7, 2011 They need to just relax out there and not worry about winning them all. Just try to get the series win. I think that's what bothered me about the last series with the Dodgers. They had the series wrapped up and then pissed it away. They simply can't continue to do that after the break and expect to remain in striking distance.They still need to do something at the SS position and have heard rumors of possible trades. If Gomes could play more like last night and less like the beginning of the season, they will be just fine. I wonder every here and there how much the ongoing football problem plays into owners and management really wanting to have a contender this season ?? You have to figure if there's no football, baseball stands to make a bunch more money this season and if your team is in the playoffs, CHA-CHING !!!Oh the rumor was about Reyes, the SS from the Mets...

BengalszoneBilly Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 The Reds are playing their usual game tonight. Fall behind early, then catch up later. Lets hope this lead holds! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Posted June 8, 2011 Volquez cut his hair off. Hope that helps. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 GRAND SLAM BY CAIRO!!! Reds up 8-1, which is a good thing because the Cardinals are winning too. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Posted June 8, 2011 They go for the sweep today in an early game. I think the game starts at like 12:30pm (EST).It was funny, because when Cairo came up to bat, I said to my wife that he was about due and BAM, out it goes.Nice... Quote
