Sabathia on back to back days? Well, now the Brewers are just getting desperate…

(racking my brain for something to say about him)

I went to the game yesterday and it was one of the best games I have been to in a long time. It was fun to see the kids playing well. Also, where the hell did all the Brewers fans come from? It seemed like they made up over half the crowd. It was almost like a Cubs or Cardinals game. Next thing you know the Pirates will be showing up in GABP.

did you and rick finally get a house togeather? It is so nice that he got you out of your mothers basement.

I watched that episode of the office last night.

And then I understood.

Should I watch the Bengals get killed or another meaningless Reds game featuring the peerless Corey Patterson?

135?

our starting outfield today is Cabrera/Patterson/Hairston

i hope Dusty isnt tipsy from all the champagne he had before the game

nice

And his fastball is sitting in the low 90’s. He was used in relief three days ago in Chicago, so that might be affecting his performance today.

But he swung at the first pitch when McClung has been so wild. And that’s one out.

Even after Palmer didn’t bother to catch the snap.

I thought that was the Titans’ offensive coordinator.

are we losing yet?

He’s got five strikeouts already.

why does the camera angels suck, and the rader gun never works?

quite the barnburner in the Meadowlands.

Consarn it!

After all that, only one run.

And still only two hits for the Reds.

Why isn’t Cameron a Red?

in the Fleaflicker league?

He has two quality starts.

he’s got four rushing and one passing now

looks like we can only win 2 outta 3 in these series, huh?

here to play!

“Joey Votto and Ryan Braun, Prince Fielder and Jay Bruce, JJ Hardy and…Jeff Keppinger. or Edwin Encarnacion.”

one of these things is flat out not like the others.

in anticipation of having 85 recieving yards on the season?

now thats a hummmmmmmdinger!!!

common defense

Were just toying with them.

do it Palmer!!

Hmmm. That doesn’t sound right…

that saved many a knockouts

Denny Neagle saying “We’ll win more games in a week than the Bengals will win in a season, listen to the Reds on the home of the Reds 700 WLW.”?

2 out of 3 ain’t bad

Pray to the deity of your choice tonight and thank it, because I came within a hair of starting Ronnie Brown instead of LT in our fantasy league since LT’s been up and down thus far. FIVE damned touchdowns for a bench player, ouch.

/kicks self in ass

this winter. he would certainly be an upgrade over BP in the cleanup spot, and if Walt wants to make a run next season (all signs point to him doing so) i think this might be one of the best ways to do it.

the question is, what would it take to make it work? if the Tigers are going to move him, it looks like they would want to move the money. perhaps a package centered around Homer? i dont personally want to move Homer, but my guess is Walt has no recollection of Good Homer and might be more inclined to move him.

personally, the deal i would want to see is Coco + a mid-level prospect. Maggs is due about 50 mil over the next 3 years, and Coco is due around 40, so thats a net savings of 10 mil for the Tigers. plus, it gives them the closer they need, which would be a move for contention for them for next year. Coco does have a no-trade clause (i think) so who knows if that would even work out. just some food for thought.

There’s a subtle irony in there, I think.
