Wonder how the Rays will fare without him? It will be interesting to see which pitchers stay the same and which ones tail off a bit. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/15/mlb-unveils-plan-to-enforce-rules-on-cheating-with-sticky-balls.html Looks like it is a dog fight between the Rays and the Red Sawks! My Yankees? They're struggling to be above .500. Judge and Stanton trade places on the IL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Votto collected his 300th home run on April 30. According to EliasSports, Joey would be the first player to reach all 3 of those milestones in the same season since HOF’er Billy Williams did it in 1971. Working for Elias Sports must be so cool. I also love it when Tim Kurkjian is calling a game because he sprinkles in great little nuggets like this during the broadcast.

IU Scott Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Got home hoping to see the last few innings of the Refs and Padres and saw Bally Sports is showing the Indiana Fever. They are the worst team in the WNBA and it is a rerun from earlier in the night. Reds ate down 1-0 in the 7th. Miley had a no hitter until Tatis hot a home in the 6th. Reds offense the last 3 games has disappeared because they have stopped working the pitchers and making easy outs early in the count Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Reds was down 2-0 going to the 9th but just scored 4 runs to take a 4-2 lead. Joe Musgrove can't catch a break because he had a 2.50 era but is only 4-6. Tonight he pitched 7 scoreless bit they took him out after only 91 pitches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 What the hell is David Bell thinking because he just brought on a rookie pitcher who is has never gotten a major league Dave. Ryan Hendrix had like a 4.7 era and Bell is bring him in a 4-2 game in the bottom of the 9th. He just walked the first batter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 SD just tied the game on a 2 run homer. If the Refs lose Bell had a lot of explaining to do with pitching Hendrix in this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) Reds bullpen totally imploded in the bottom of the 9th with them giving tup 2 2 run homers to lose 6-4. Have no idea what is wrong with Garrett because he has been awful all year. The last 6 games the bullpen had pitched 18. Innings and only gave up 3 runs but they gave up 4 runs in .1 innings in the 9th. I just hope losing a game in this fashion does not start a down slide since they have played do well lately. Still has three more games in SD and then 2 at Minnesota. I know when you make a schedule you have to look at every team but how the Refs road trip was scheduled is ridiculous. Played at Milwaukee then go to SD and then go back across the country to Minnesota Edited June 18, 2021 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stlboiler23 Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 Yadi has thrown out 50% of base stealers. That’s absurd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 I don't know how much longer the Refs can just keep putting Suarez in the lineup every night. Last year in 57 games he hit .202 and in 65 games this year he is at .161. I couldn't care less about his 14 home runs. To start the season he went 4-50 with RISP. And you can't have that with a player who hays in the middle of the lineup. When I heard his goal lady year and this year was to hit 50 homers I knew the Refs was in trouble. He is more worried about home runs over making contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 SD hitting had been horrible the last 4 weeks but they are feasting on the Reds pitching. In the last 13 games they scored 30 runs but the 12 innings against the Reds they have scored 10 with 7 home runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 Well it was fun while it lasted but the Refs are back to their old selves especially the bullpen. Going to the 9th they are down 8-2 and the bullpen had given up 5 runs in 5 innings. The offense hasn't been much better the last 4 games. They scored 10 runs in the first game of the road trip but they have only scored 10 in the last 4 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 The west division has been a Reds killer and if you take them out the Refs has a very good record. Their record against each team. Arizona 1-5 SF 1-6 SD 0-2 LA 2-1 Colorado 5-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true...Yadi never played against a Lou Brock, a Tim Raines, a Maury Wills, a Rickey Henderson, or a Vince Coleman. As a matter of fact, I doubt he's ever played against anybody who is in the top 50 career wise. Sure, the game has made the stolen base less of a weapon than it used to be, but those before him had to face the very best at their craft...not a bunch of wanna be home run hitters who only steal bases as a last resort...

IU Scott Posted June 20, 2021 Report Share Posted June 20, 2021 Reds lose their 3rd straight on SF losing 7-5. The bullpen gave up a 2 run homer in the bottom of the 8th to Tatis backup. Tatis went out with a shoulder injury but to the bullpen it didn't matter Twice the Reds pitchers got the first two batters out but gave up a 3 run double and a 2 run homer. You have to be able to finish off an inning once you got the first to batters out. In the 3 games the Reds have been outscored 21-11 and out homered 10-1.; They are now 9-18 against the west and are 10 games over .500 against the rest of baseball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
