Game 153: Reds vs Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers at Cincinnati Reds, Sep 19, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
|
|
|
You know, if Ramon Ramirez keeps pitching like he has, he might find himself pitching in the 5th spot in the rotation next season while Bailey and Thompson get sent to Triple-A (and I almost forgot Micah Owings). Not that I think that Ramirez is turning into a star, but it sure is nice to have so many options for next season's rotation already. Hopefully this means that the Reds won't be signing any Josh Foggs or Kirk Saarlooses.
This series is the Reds last chance this year to pay back the Brewers for 1999. What's weird is that I'm kinda rooting for the Brewers to make the playoffs (my NL rooting list goes DBacks, Brewers, Phillies right now). However, it sure would be sweet to get some redemption for the last time the Reds came close, but not close enough (2006 doesn't count since the Reds didn't deserve it anyway). It's nothing personal, battlekow. It's just business.

I’m going to the game tonight, and a little bummed that this may be my last chance (realistically) to see EdE in a Reds uniform, and he’s not playing. At least I can celebrate knowing that this will be the last time I see "K"orey, right? Right…?

At least not after Johnny was let go. It was well known that he needed to go. We just got extremely lucky to land a good/great pitcher out of the deal.

Dikembe is just a crazy dude that has a bit of a temper, and he would undoubtedly admit this. This is his signature:
If I’m not drunk, I’m at work.
He’s not at work.
We’re all passed the point of “pissed off” and in the stage of “denial” and “shock”. Don’t think any of you aren’t welcome or anything because one guy jokingly invoked that he didn’t want to talk about Bill Hall. Only Cub fans aren’t welcome, Reds fans are fine. You guys certainly raise the quality of the less lively in-game threads.

I like checking out other SBN sites (you may have noticed me over at BCB), but the average poster Blah Cubbie Blah is just such a mouth-breather. Never anything funny to say, rarely anything insightful to add about the game. They suck so much, but at least they generally leave our site alone. I’ve seen them on yours. It’s not pretty. I don’t want to be that guy.

There's a guy at BCB right now that's pretending to be a royal's fan, but is a cub fan
he says stuff like “You guys are still complaining about that no-hitter?” (no one is) and then says the Brewers won’t make the playoffs for years. Give it up, folks. I’d hope there is a bit of a permanent peace treaty between posters at BCB and Red Reporter.

Oh, OK. Cindy! Yo, Cindy! Cindy! Hold its neck back and insert the knife below the jaw. Bring it all the way around, there’s going to be a good amount of blood. Don’t let it bother you. Have a bucket there, for the blood… and the innards… and the feathers

The Cubs are the brains, the Dodgers are the looks, the Phillies are the muscle
And the Mets are the WILD CARD!
And the Brewers are the useless girl that just stands there and doesn’t do anything.

The Reds are the traditional, unchanging amish girl that wears a lot of clothes and is worked so hard in the field that they’re permanently damaged. :)

ahh
i looked at Hiram for a bit (as well as Wooster), but i chose Otterbein. the proximity to Columbus was the clincher.

I don't know whether I like using Micah Owings as a pinch hitter
Yes it’s fun, and he’s a pretty good hitter, but isn’t his main value to us as a pitcher? Why bat him more often when you need to, especially when BP and EdE have both gone down recently to injuries sustained while batting?
by Brendanukkah on Sep 19, 2008 9:33 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Nah, he can run the bases to his heart's content
And we have used Bronson Arroyo and Johnny Cueto as pinch runners a fair amount this season.
by Brendanukkah on Sep 19, 2008 9:38 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
We could use a centerfielder
I’d rather use him as a pitcher though.

That warrants taking the rest of the season off, I guess
Word is, he’s dating Dusty’s daughter, which explains quite a bit.

But I’d like to see a return of the themes. Weren’t Tuesdays at the beginning of the season fun? My specific vote would go to split-personality day, that was a hell of a thread

One out left, game on the line. For some reason, the Orioles are pinch-hitting for Juan Castro.

No, no
Mariano Rivera was on the mound. He’s right-handed. You can’t pinch-hit a righty against a righty.
