You ain't gonna be getting any love from them either! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind one bit if the Cubs bats make the trip to Pittsburgh and have this thing finished up before Thursday. I just hope we don't completely collapse like we did last year...

It's on all of our minds. Or at least it should be. I don't want any piece of the White Sox lineup this weekend in a must win situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Well the bottom of the second was a typical Reds inning. They had 2nd and 3rd a no outs and don't end up scoring. Winker had a hard hit lin e drive that look like it would go down the 1st base line but it was right at the 1st baseman. This is a big series against the Brewers and right now it is 0-0 in the top of the 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Reds have to lead the league in taking 3rd strikes. Just do Toney Perez's hitting philosophy of see ball hit ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Looks like a pitching duel between Woodruf and Castillo 0-0 going tp the 5th. Reds just had 1st and 2nd and one out and Winker hit into a DP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Reds win 6-3 against the Brewers who we were tied with so a big win.

It's hard to imagine moving a perennial All Star (based on results for his career). Only move now is to give him the off season to get healthy and see what happens first half of next season. If arrow is pointing up you can move him....or if arrow is pointing up try to work a discounted deal out. Something is obviously wrong health wise. You don't have the numbers he had and have this.

IU Scott Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 Reds up 2-1 in the bottome of the 6th inning with a two run homer by Castellanos. Gray with a very good outing comong off the DL going 5IP and 1 run, 2hits. Reds hitting is still not good and only have 3 hits against a slow pitching lefthander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 Cubs get first 2 guys on. Double play and strikeout. Sounds about right. I'll check the score in 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
