BengalszoneBilly Posted April 4, 2016 Report Posted April 4, 2016 May as well start a thread for the regular season, and it's probably gonna be a long and ugly one. Before one game is in the books, five pitchers are on the DL. They are only projecting the Reds to win 67 games as well. Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 4, 2016 Report Posted April 4, 2016 in first place, probably won't be saying that very much this season. Quote

redsbengalsbucks Posted April 5, 2016 Report Posted April 5, 2016 To be honest I didn't think it was going to happen in 1990 either 1 Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Posted April 5, 2016 I ran across this MLB payroll comparison chart. Hard to compete when other teams spend over twice what yours does. Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 5, 2016 Report Posted April 5, 2016 Pretty telling. Seems like if you want to compete with a small budget you had better spend it on pitching and that is not what this years Reds are all about. Quote
COB Posted April 6, 2016 Report Posted April 6, 2016 Well, the tribe looked exactly like they did last year. They threw Kluber out there, then could barely score to even support him. I'll tell you what, Mike Napoli looks like we just tossed washed-up stiff Nick Swisher out the door and went out and found his twin brother to replace him. He just looks hapless and old. I'm fucking pissed. We throw our Cy Young winner out there and can only manage 5 hits in support. If any of you Reds fans are interested, Francisco Lindor, the shortstop the tribe got from Puerto Rico, is a stud. They brought him up from triple A last year and he immediately became, and remains, the best player the Indians have. Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 6, 2016 Report Posted April 6, 2016 Anything from the mistake by the lake draws no interest from me. Quote

redsbengalsbucks Posted April 7, 2016 Report Posted April 7, 2016 I think I like the fact that the Cards are 0-3 better than the 2-0 Reds. 1 Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted April 7, 2016 Author Report Posted April 7, 2016 The Reds roll to 3-0, the Big Red Machine has been reborn!! 1 Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 7, 2016 Report Posted April 7, 2016 They looked good winning today. Im starting to believe. Now comes the fall. Quote

These wins were against the Phillies. Hardly top notch competition. Still, first place does feel good. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted April 9, 2016 Author Report Posted April 9, 2016 Well the Pirates ended the fun. Now they lead the division and they're playing good ball too. I'm just hoping for something interesting to watch in baseball, because last year was rough. Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 9, 2016 Report Posted April 9, 2016 so far the youth movement looks pretty solid, maybe in a couple of season they will get back to the playoffs. They need to get some more good young players for Bruce and Phillips this season, when they start selling off talent. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted April 10, 2016 Author Report Posted April 10, 2016 The Reds take 2 out of 3 from the Pirates, and finish the home stand at 5-1. Another walk off win. On the road to Chicago up next. Quote
COB Posted April 11, 2016 Report Posted April 11, 2016 The Reds jump out to a hot 5-1 start, and the Tribe sits at a desultory 2 and 2. The weather in the mistake is so bad they can barely play games. On the plus side, I managed to watch a few innings of Sox ace Chris Sale as he beat the Indians. Dude can frickin' whip it in there. He's a freak. Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 22, 2016 Report Posted April 22, 2016 Wow, the Cubbies destroyed the Reds last night in no-hit fashion! Quote

COB Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 Lindor cranks one out last night to win in extra innings. Tonight the Reds have the chance to avoid the sweep, a goal they will likely accomplish. The tribe can't stand prosperity. I'm actually amazed they won the first 3, they were more likely to lose 3 in a row than win 3 in a row. In spite of great starting pitching, and a couple nearly great bats, it is just not their year. Again. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 The Reds suck big fat donkey balls. BIG. FAT. BALLS. The bullpen's level of sh*tiness has reached levels of sh*tiness never thought possible. They're sh*tty. Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted May 20, 2016 Report Posted May 20, 2016 You would think a head coach that used to be a pitching coach would have at least an average pitching staff. Quote
