Now we’ll win!

you sell the cincinnati home or the michigan home?

if it was the cincinnati one where are you moving?

I’ll be asking more personal questions later

I just sold Dusty Baker’s house. He’s gonna be so pissed when he gets home and his keys don’t work.

…if he ran any slower, he’d be going backwards. You know, like the Reds organizationally.

So allow me to stir things up a bit while we wait for first pitch…

Sean Casey could beat him in a footrace to a plantain buffet. With a rock in his shoe. And Javy on his shoulders. In full equipment.

a batting practice tickle party!

My pictures shows him winning the catcher’s sprint to see who gets to flog Mike Stanton…of course he’s gained a little weight since then…but he’s fast when he needs to be bitches.

fluffy

I was looking at the boxscores from yesterday’s games and I am extremely confused by Mike Lincoln’s line. 0 innings, 3 hits, 4 earned runs. He didn’t walk or hit a batter, but he faced 4 hitters. What the heck happened there? It’s gonna bother me if I don’t figure this out. Catcher’s interference or something?

Oh, and, beat the Cubs for us please

Dickerson CF
Kepp SS
Bruce RF
Phillips 2B
EdE 3B
Votto 1B
Cabrera LF
Hanigan C
Arroyo P

Patterson sits against the tough lefty Ted Lilly. will the Reds have enough team speed to overcome his absence?

which player is seen here checking out donkey’s ass?

It sorta looks to me like my old shop teacher, Mr. Krangle, who had 3 full fingers and a penchant for young Asian boys. But I’m pretty sure he’s doing time in Lompoc, not roaming the field during batting practice to glance closely at form-fitting polyester that hides only one’s inflated OBP.

Lohse got suspended five games for throwing at EV. Sweet.

but do we have any righties besides Rosales, Philips, EdE?

eesh.

wonderful insight there chris. of course the replay didn’t even have lee in the picture, so there was no way to tell if it was an out or not…

8 pitches? not good….

predictions on bronson? im going conservative with 17.

we have an obc sighting.

Speaking of which, I have some good info for ya son, call me.

again

i want a chimichanga

“Sometimes a manager will put a hit and run on to get a slumping batter going”

You can read more about this in my book “Wins and Losses are the Only Stats They Should Keep and Other Ridiculous Shit I Make Up to Fill Time” forthcoming from Oxford UP.

second game in a row where they have been retired in order in the first three at-bats.

they’re together again.

note – this is from WGN feed.

“I Love a Rainy Night” Eddie Rabbit

Thoughts?

Lilly, Oh Lilly

2nd in two nights

just the wonderful repartee of RR community.

Why is Hobart in this game?

Haven’t scored since Sunday.

Lilly’s on, this lineup……perfect storm.

Maybe Rosales should get some ABs/PT couldn’t be worse than this shit

Gotta go work. I may be back, may be not. Love and hugs and kisses all the way around.

He’s 10-10 with a 5.40 ERA.

if they hired This Guy to get it written.

BOOOOO

Lazy fuck

RBIs the backdoor way.

I woujld like to watch the game with occassional commentary…please

Hallelujah

I was just about to comment on how, after getting 15 walks in his first 151 PAs, Bruce got only 3 walks in his next 160 PAs.

And then he walked.

WTF is BP swinging at?

I going homesitting – done babysitting

The Reds might win this game. Craziness.

Well done, Bronson.

hold on to your butts

boom….outta here

the karma bites him in the ass

And Coco got an actual save! Holy shit!

Oh right……

. . . who is up right now . . . and who hit a three-run homer in the first tonight. Oh, and Griffey homered too.

It’s so refreshing to hear a home announcer praise Adam Dunn for taking a 3-1 fastball on the outside corner. Fuck, that would have been nice the last 7 years.

And after a lengthy at bat results in a walk, the announcing crew notes “you’re looking at the .194 batting average against lefties, and then you look up and he’s standing on first base.” It’s amazing how some people just get it, while others are completely clueless.

I finally realized that I have a problem. I’m on vacation in Charleston this week, but I’m here checking old game threads. The Olympics are on TV, but I’m here checking old Fan Posts. The women’s beach volleyball final was going on IN THE RAIN, and I was getting pissed off by Reynard instead of determining if the Chinese team was hotter than the Americans.

I need help.

I’m watching the Giants/Marlins game . . . Giants SS Ochoa was batting and the runner on first took off. It was a pitchout, but Ochoa reaches out and hits the ball, taking part of Paul Lo Duca’s hand with it. LoDuca was pissed, until he realized he fucked up by getting in the way.

and after going to the Bramble Patch to see if bob was still there (He as gone – just missed him), I came back to see if anyone was still around.

Yes, Cy I do babysit..The bold parents are #1 daughter and Hubby. Mrs. M and I were trading off walking the 4month old grandson. I am bit jaded at times here on the RR threads, but most of the time (when not drinking or bowling) I’m just your average near postal American slob. While as a kid I read Walt Whitman and Tom Jones but my real heroes were Charles Whitman
