JFC! I just came back in and turned the game on. They're kicking our ass again? But there's hope. Freddie with the tater and Markakais with a double.

If I had to guess we are gonna bring up Flowers,Bautista, and Acuna and get rid of Bourjos,Perez, and Culberson the same day.

I'd be fine with that, but the sooner, the better.

I'm not thrilled about the prospects of Bautista taking playing time away from Camargo(I think he should be starting over FLaherty), but as much as I don't like him, if he can help the team, I'll pull for him.

You don't know the half of it.

That Freeman homer was our first hit, and we struck out 11 times.

Looks like Flaherty and Tucker remembered who they were.

I think Flaherty's hot start is over. Let him go back to being the bench piece he's been his entire career. Put Camargo in there. Hasn't had an AB that I remember since his game tying triple against the Mets.

God damn Tucker, you've gotta catch that. Horrible route and it hit your glove.

So much for that shutdown inning.

How can this team struggle with the pitching staff for so long? I swear this is like Tommy Bowden's reign at Clemson. He could never put together an OL and ever year it was "we're young," We're injured," We're thin," and any number of excuses. I don't get it. Bring in the fucking talent or get someone who can.

Just got to tip your hat to the Reds right there.

Tucker has not only been useless at the plate these last few games. He just cost us a run.

We've got plenty of starting pitching talent. This bullpen needs a complete overhaul though.

(though to be fair, Preston Tucker directly cost us this last run with a horrible route and a leadoff double hitting off glove when Acuna should have been with the team to start this series)
