Cincy the Red
It all starts with heart.
I was just looking at some season to date averages for our Reds and a few stood out to me....
Hitting:
1 - 8.60 hits/game (excellent!)
2 - 1.05 HR's/game (very nice)
3 - 4.80 runs/game (would love to see that get over 5)
4 - 4.01 walks/game (I have not done the research but that seems to be an awesome average per game....obviously Votto plays a big part in that)
5 - 7.78 K's/game (obviously I would like to see that lower but it is what it is....the team is still hitting more than striking out on average)
Pitching:
1 - 8.21 K's/game (pretty good but with this staff, could be better in my opinion. I still say we need Cingrani up here to replace Hoover/Ondrusek....be nice to have another lefty)
2 - 2.64 walks/game (very nice)
3 - 3.54 runs/game (this accounts for all runs not just earned...so excellent in my opinion)
The Reds are doing very well on both sides, hence a top 3 win/loss record in MLB thus far. Scary thing is....I still see room for improvement and, once again in my opinion, our best ball is yet to come. They seem to be playing with purpose (which is good) but I feel there is a "switch" yet to be flipped as a team that will elevate them to a dominate level.
Long Live Reds Nation!
