Game 70 Thread: Reds at Blue Jays

A RR burger adventure, and the Displaced DC meetup (with featured guest, Gray). But in the spirit of the Red, White, and Blue, nothing is impossible! Beat those lousy Canadians (pay no attention to first base) and do better than that other La Roja.

I BROUGHT BEER!!!!

game’s on. Joey walks in the first. Everyone else acts like Joey isn’t back.

Let’s hope that changes tonight.

so we can trade him.

Bronson Arroyo cannot pitch in Toronto.

im thinkin’ Molson doesnt sit well with him.

fuckkkk

The shot of Dusty in the dugout was priceless.

Can we start a petition to end the sadness that is Interleague Play?

Bronson ERA for the game is 45 but his FIP for the game is only 42.5.

so strong

Find ass, insert thumb.

Arthur Rhodes is pitching instead, righ?

give us somethin to talk about

I guess not….

Common, Reds. The Yankees wild card hopes may be resting on you.

just homered off Joba.

What happend? Is it necessary that Bronson pitch like the whiffle ball wqorld series everytime he goe stpo Tornoto?

Are we going to score more runs?

That is starting to sound like a soap opera cliffhanger. Find out next on Reds of our lives.

I really need to do something to alleviate my anger and frustration with this team. I’m thinking a bucket of chocolate ice cream. Any recommendations?

But games like this where the SP gives up 5 runs and then is still allowed to pitch for 3 more innings, and our batters go out there and still swing at the first pitch since our “hitting coach” is so awesome, really make me start to HATE this team.

I love the Reds… but I am completely fed up with this stuff.

His exchange rate is awful.

who gets sent down to bring up Bailey on Saturday? (not “who do you want sent down?”)

boom boom clap!

is this being discussed somewhere that I’m not seeing?

That sucked.

At least Jay did not ground out to the second baseman FOUR times . . .

Any one else concerned that Dusty is thinking “See, that’s what happens when Taveras and Gonzo are not in the lineup!” Because I’m pretty sure that’s what he’s going to take from this experience.

Think we can steal the last game form them? I love my team but these losses are bumming me out!

He walked three and stuck out two and fell to 2-5 with a 6.82 ERA in nine career games against Toronto.

So, anyone thinking about trading this guy should probably stop considering AL East squads.

Lets see what Bailey does is his next start, Voltron is is still out for a while and Micah isn’t keeping the opposition off the scoreboard much either and Harang is getting no run support. Under these circumstances Bronson becomes more acceptable. Unless you want to throw in the towel for 2009 and work towards 2010…which ain’t gonna happen the way things are dragging along.

The sad part is seeing Hanigan on the bench, BP still batting 4th and Richar getting the start while Jannis rots…Dusty’s approach is not working and it can’t – this is my mantra.

That quote he chose:

“Well,” said Arroyo, “It can’t get any worse. Can it?”

There it is, highlighted in its gray box at the top of this thread, mocking us…

Arroyo really sucks sometimes, but doesn’t seem to care to figure out why. Kind of like our entire offense. What tangible changes have been made other than benching ther zeroes for a day?

Bailey will probably be pitching Saturday. I guess that’s something to look forward to.

and Chris said he talked to someone with the Jays who said they had something on Arroyo. They werent specific, but Welsh figured he was talking about Bronson tipping pitches. i would believe just about anything at this point.

That’s all I’m going to say.
