Unacceptable for a playoff team.

Eh, playoff teams lose all the time, sometimes with crappy hitting like that. Phillies have lost 6 in a row including yesterday when they lost a walk off after being up 5 runs. And we all know which team beat us in a heartbreaker in 2012 that no one could come back from

All teams pretty much will lose 60. All teams will pretty much win 60.

It's the 40 other games, and when you hit .150 and K 10 times you're going to lose a LOT of those.

I'd trade places with the Philth right now.

Interesting game. Ray goes 5
3H
9K
1BB
all good, except two of those hits were HR.

3-2 good guys B7...will it be FYWW or FUWL?

I'd 'stay tuned' but I don't have phuking Roku.

You want to compare us to to Philly?

Who is our Harper? Who is our Turner?

Good teams slump. Bad teams just play badly.

I seriously doubt we see Whisenhunt this year. No reason to burn a year on him already.

And I forgot that he is currently on Sacramento's 7 day IL. Don't know the nature of his injury so I don't know if he is done for the year.
Roupp should have been the name I gave instead.

Fitz does it again...5-2 good guys T8.

What a story this kid is. Between him, Ramos, Harry and Birdsong it's been a very good developmental year.

Damn. I had no idea we had a buttcrack of dawn game today…

Forto with a double and the Giants breaking it open. 6-2 T8

 

[calsnowskier]

Who the hell is that in the booth?

Edit: oh, this is national. Interesting that Lopez is doing a national broadcast…

 

[tzill]

Jer-ARRR with a 2 run double. 8-2 T8

you have Roku?

 

[calsnowskier]

you have Roku?

Yes, but watching on MLB

 

[calsnowskier]

It is John Sadak and Javier doing the national broadcast. I assume Sadak is a Reds broadcaster?

 

[calsnowskier]

This is how I think national broadcasts SHOULD be done. One guy from each team’s booth working together.

 

[calsnowskier]

Jer-ARRR with a 2 run double. 8-2 T8

Small sample size thus far, but I like what I am seeing.

 

[filosofy29]

What would you give Cleveland to get him?

That was the joke

I should’ve put my smiley guy lol

unless you’re this year’s White Sox, then you win 40

So would I. My point is one can and does “accept” shitty games every year including the very best teams

Good teams slump. Bad teams just play badly.

And promising middling teams play like the 2024 Giants

 

[filosofy29]

wasn’t it against the reds that one year where we had an unacceptable loss that marked the end of our season…..
