Reds batters has already 7 times through 3 innings. SF pitcher is making his second career start and he is their top prospect If I didn't know better, I'd swear you were talking about the Yankees!! In last night's game against Detroit, the first 8 batters all struck out!! But the Yanks did manage a 4-1 win with Severino pitching a decent game no less. I think Severino was auditioning for other teams as I don't think he will be back in New York next year, JMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like he ain't been the same since he won 19 games back a few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Breaking News.... Yanks 3rd basemen, Josh Donaldson, who was due to come off the IL, has been released. This indicates the Yankees are going to get younger and will play Peraza. Anyone need an experienced, over the hill, 3rd basemen?? One of the worst trades Cashman has made, JMO....

None of these guys are Schwarber types where you can kind of live with the K's because of the constant HR threat and his ability to go nuclear for stretches throughout the season. So many unproductive outs. And, it falls on scouting, coaching, and development. Saw this on Facebook. Schwarber 160 K's this year Suarez 162 K's this year Tony Gwynn 188 K's in the whole decade of the 90's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Reds are totally falling apart. Down 5-0 after 3 at SF. 1 run scored on a balk 1 run scored on a wild pitch 2 unearned runs on a two out error then a homer Reds has no hits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) Tip of the cap to Justin Steele... Rough 30 pitch 1st inning, and it seemed like he was in trouble a lot, but he scuffled and hung in there going 6 innings and throwing 111 pitches... Helped himself by only walking 1... Bullpen was stellar, allowing 1 hit and no walks over 3 innings....1-0 good guys 🙂 Rubber game tomorrow...Brandon Woodruff vs Kyle Hendricks...

rico Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 "Why certainly I'd like to have that fellow who hits a home run every time at bat, who strikes out every opposing batter when he's pitching, who throws strikes to any base or the plate when he's playing outfield and who's always thinking about two innings ahead just what he'll do to baffle the other team. Any manager would want a guy like that playing for him. The only trouble is to get him to put down his cup of beer and come down out of the stands and do those things."---Danny Murtaugh 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Bader, good centerfielder and was hitting around .240. His problem was staying healthy. I'm sure some team will pick him up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
