Game 131: Reds at Rockies
Cincinnati Reds at Colorado Rockies, Aug 24, 2008 3:05 PM EDT
|
|
|
It's a matchup of young, hard-throwing Dominican phenoms today. Cueto has been pitching very well of late, but the Reds only have one win in his last 5 starts. He still needs two wins to get to my artificial goal of double-digit wins.
Jimenez is a couple of years older than Cueto and a much wilder, but his ERA is better because he's only allowed 9 HR compared to Cueto's 26. He threw 6 shutout innings against the Reds last month in a game in a game where he only allowed 5 hits (2 by Dunn, 1 by Griffey, Votto, and Bruce). Hopefully the offense can continue to be the juggernaut they've been so far in Colorado.

I don't know if anyone caught this last night
but Brantley tried to make a case about how the “Post Dunn and Griffey Era” has made the Reds a better team.
I recall him saying something about how the Reds can score in every other inning now with the young players and “not have just one big inning of getting 4 or 5 runs.”
Not only did his statement not make any sense but the Reds scored 6 runs last night and lost the game still! Must be the ghost of Adam Dunn’s bad influence then.

I heard that
And chuckled at the idiocy. I also heard him state at some point recently that this team was “a couple of guys away” from making a run at things. I think he’s either retarded, drunk, or both.
How can such a good looking man be so bad at getting to first base?

I haven't really been following Olympic baseball
But I just noticed that Jeff Stevens was on the team. Yup, the guy we traded for Brandon Phillips. So does Stevens’s bronze medal help even that trade up a little? No? Ok then.

Still rehabbing that broken knee
Which doesn’t make me feel especially good about his prospects for next season. Even though he had a bit of pop last season, we brought him in for his defensive prowess. That was already questionable last season, but counting on the man for his defense after he missed an entire season with a bad knee doesn’t fill me with confidence for 2009. I’m not really sure that he really would be better than all of the in-house SS candidates. At the very least, it doesn’t seem prudent to rely on him 100% for next season, and the higher-ups have to realize that shortstop has been abysmal for us this year. I just no longer see the harm in at least looking at what Phillips can do there.

How does a ground out to first base tickle you?
It’s a testament to Corey that he still manages to amaze me with his ineptitude. I know he’s terrible, but he does things so badly on such a consistent basis as to truly be stunning. It’s even passed the level of farce. It will take a greater mind than my own to properly contextualize the Corey Patterson era in Cincinnati.

When CoPat came up, I looked at my girlfriend and said, “I got twenty bucks that says this guy strikes out or grounds out to the second basemen”. She almost took the bet until she saw his name come up. Then she said, “Wait, isn’t that the guy who always gets out? No way!”.
She doesn’t even like baseball.

Pshaw!
Saturday, Aug. 30 is Ohio State versus Youngstown State in the Tressel Bowl. I am infinitely more excited for that than ’Bama-Clemson.

start of NCAA football season, right?
I think we overmeet as a society.

UC starts Friday I think
They have the longest schedule in the country by days, or some shit like that.
How can such a good looking man be so bad at getting to first base?

Sunday is the only day you should care about!!
When your precious pussycats get stomped into powder by the heroic Cardinal football te — ah fuck it, I can’t even pretend to care about football at this point.

You see that UK got a top flight qb commitment this week?
he was originally recruited by louisville. and kragthorpe thought it would be a good idea to take him to lexington last year to see the UK/Louisville game. of course, uk beat louisville, and he decided he’d like to be recruited by UK. great coach you guys have over there….

As long as Petrino eats shit and dies I'm happy
Please note – I don’t fault him for taking the money. I would do the same thing. But I wouldn’t lie my ass off in front of several cameras, saying I want to stay, 24 hrs prior to bolting. He’s a douche.

Like I said
I understand him finding $24 million dollars irresistible. Just be somewhat honest about it. Then again it seems to be a personality trait of a lot of coaches.

sounds like a coach with a similar name to his...
it was like that during his whole tenure though. petrino is a snake

Yup
My favorite Petrino idiocy was the Auburn fiasco.

Bruce with a bad case of Donleyittis
Time for EdE to deliver
You can tell your uncle stuff that you could not tell your dad. That is kind of the role of an uncle. I feel very much like a father sometimes but sometimes I feel like a teammate.
