ArmyBengal Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 The Reds start a 4 game series tonight with the Cubs coming to town.Saturday's game is a doubleheader.The Reds have Arroyo, Cueto, and Latos taking the mound, but don't have listed who is pitching the 2nd game of the doubleheader.Like I mentioned in the Mets thread, the Pirates and Cardinals start a 3 game series tonight, so the Reds need to take advantage of gaining some ground on one or the other, playing a Cubs team that has the 2nd worst road record in the whole league.GO REDS !!!

ArmyBengal Posted August 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 It's ok, Frazier is yet again with a 2 run shot to put the Reds up 4-3.Arroyo has been struggling though and don't want to see him stay in long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted August 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 The Pirates did beat the Cards last night 2-1.Pirates stay 6 back and the Cards 8.Now lets see the Cards win the next two against the Pirates while the Reds complete the sweep.Both teams would be 8.5 back of the Reds since we have a doubleheader today.

BengalszoneBilly Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 This could be a very good day for the Reds. They beat the Cubbies in the first game of the double header, and the Cardinals are up on the Pirates 5-3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 It's weird as hell seeing someone new get a pitching start. Todd Redmond it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripes Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Dreading the Valdez at-bat in the 9th. Granted I groaned about Cairo too and he's given us a homer and a triple today. Shut me up, Wilson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 F*CKING ONDRUSEK.I can't stand that dude.I can't say as I agree with the whole bringing Redmond up to start the 2nd game of a doubleheader either.There are plenty of team that, when the situation may call for it, they only give a starter 4 days off.It may have something to dowith not having another day off until the 30th of August, but I don't like it.Every half game makes a difference in the standings.I guess if that's the only thing to be irritated with, i'm doing ok.Latos just needs to ensure the series win today.If we split this series with the worst road team in the majors, I will be pissed.Oh yeah, early start today.

Stripes Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Ondrusek's ERA is still in the low 3's. That makes him below average for a Reds reliever but still very decent overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
