Game 104: Reds vs Rockies

and g’night everybody. I’m outta internet access for awhile. Like the pitching match up, hope we can draw ever closer to that elusive .500

“I actually had a dream about Matt Stafford last night. You want me to tell you the dream? I’ll tell you. Well, I just got engaged to my fiance and I’ve been having these crazy dreams about her leaving me. Cosmo says its natural. So I’m having this dream that she’s leaving me and I went out following her because, you know, I had suspicions. I find her at a bar and so up to her and trying to say, ‘What are you doing?’ and she tells me she doesn’t want to marry me so I’m trying to shake her and slap her to get her to focus. I turn around and Matt Stafford punches me in the nose and said, ‘You don’t hit women.’ All the sudden the backup quarterback that is now at Delta State, Blake Barnes, comes hitting me and I’m fighting all these quarterbacks from the Manning camp start jumping in. I was doing pretty well fighting them off, twisting their arms because I know all these Army Ranger moves in my dream. I was laughing about it so I texted (Stafford) and told him. He didn’t respond. I don’t know if he likes me that much."

Even with the trading deadline less than a week away, the Reds have had very little action on Adam Dunn. But one club that spoke with the Reds says the Yankees have explored what it would take to plug Dunn into their revolving outfield/DH vacancies. The Reds, however, are continuing to ask teams for one top-of-the-line prospect and one second-tier prospect. And that’s probably more than the Yankees are inclined to give up for Dunn.

I was really hoping their collapse would be closer to the end of the season, but I’m enjoying it nonetheless.

Go Reds
Go Wrong Danica

This time its war!

7pm tonight.
No pay per view

He is the only poor bastard that makes me feel better about my lowly existence

When you see Edinson wild and fighting himself, that is probably what he looked like in Texas. I wondered how they could have given up on him!!!!

with 2 outs and the pitcher on deck? Stupid

this is not good at all

so they took the night off

...Damaso Marte and Xavier Nady.

They wouldn’t say who they’re trading them to, but Nady was pulled from the game, and Marte and Nady were hugging their teammates in the dugout and saying goodbye.

Dusty must be outdoing himself tonight.

only Reds pitcher to have 20 wins and a .800 winning percentage in the same season

Seriously?

Volquez at 92 pitches in the fourth? Ouch.

are hitting Cook pretty well, and the lefties…aren’t. So far.

FTH?

our offense seems to have taken a vacation. I hope it’s only for one night!

As you were, gentlemen/lady.

Where the hell is everyone? Fight night in Dayton?

It’s the 5th inning, we’re down by 4. If this isn’t Coffey time, no time is.

I came in as Dunn was very foolishly told to bunt.

Someone needs to smack him with a rolled up newspaper.

Bako is down to .212?

coffey time?

being from OSU and all..

nine pitches, three outs.

A triple? For rizzle?

But I swear it seems he has been playing harder in the last two weeks than he has in a couple of years.

I’m calling it right now.

Final home games vs. the Cubs this year, who wants to go and rub it in that they’re four games behind the Brewers after their great start?

at least we didn’t get shut out?

intentionally walking the bases loaded.

is the better twin of Todd Coffey

But I’m not sure he’ll be horribly missed. Give me a guy with great stuff instead.

Weathers is in – it’s in the bag!

When?

Situations like this are the ones that make me indifferent. Bleh.

and the one Monday night versus the Padres make me feel like crap. It is also the type of game where fans pretty much wave the white flag on the season along with management.

But I’ve never understood not giving a great hitter the green light on 3-0. It’s ALWAYS bothered me. Everyone knows exactly what’s coming – a fastball down the middle of the plate. Why not give one the world’s best athletes a chance to drive that crap 450 feet?

With the kids in the booth.

RALLY CAPS ON

ENTERTAINING MYSELF. VOTTOMATIC!

AND IT BEGINS.

HA, HA.

IT CONTINUES.

with a RBI.

But I fear the Curse of Chandrathan is more powerful than the Catcher Witch.

The Red Sox and Yankees are playing, I had no idea!!

Sweet. I wonder how his night in jail went.

Seriously, this is just retahded – This isn’t beer league softball, damnit.

Apparently didn’t miss much….How come Dustbag’s still leading off w/Bruce ? Why is Andy Phillips on this team and what is wrong with Voltron?

Tune in tomorrow, Masterbunters….When Dusty will regale us with warm and sincere doubletalk and prattle, but probably make no significant changes other than starting LLM and Cophat.

Good Night Mooners
