Sorry for the weak and late game thread.  My day got out of hand this afternoon.

Maloney

He showed up in this week’s Prospect Hot List chat from BA, too:

Maloney very easily could have made this week’s list. I’ll be fascinated to see how he does on Saturday when he gets his first big league start. Maloney is one of those pitchers who has always managed to get strikeouts despite only average stuff, and his 58-9 K-BB ratio this year is outstanding. The concern has been that his average stuff doesn’t give him much margin for error at the big league level, but it’s time to give him a chance to prove doubters wrong. Maloney’s one of several Reds pitchers at the upper levels doing well—Travis Wood and Zach Stewart were on the cusp of the Hot Sheet as well.

"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.

The only problem with "pretty girls pictures" is.........

It makes masturbation an easy way out for sex instead of just going out and getting the real thing. 20 years ago, masturbation was considered pathetic. Then by the late 90’s if you masturbated in front of a girl, you were “hip”.

How this relates to the Reds, you pick.

Ok, I need to drop some knowledge on your sorry ass

1) Ear infections are known to frequently bring on anxiety attacks in adults. The dizziness causes a rise in heart rate and that spurs on more dizziness. It can be a vicious cycle.

2) Ear infections can take weeks to completely clear up. Votto got sick about 3 1/2 weeks ago.

3) You have no idea what the fuck you are talking about. Nowhere have the Reds said anything even remotely resembling what is wrong with Votto.

Scouts say there’s two kinds of outfielders. The ones who read the ball off the bat, and the ones who just react with raw speed and athleticism. The ones who read the ball off the bat often say it takes them time to get used to playing corner, because the angle is so different.

All right ...

all I’m saying is that there are a ton of Cubs ‘fans’ from small little towns all over the Midwest. The grand majority of them also happen to be mouth breathers. Not knocking the town, but the type of fan.

I know what you mean

I don’t really understand the mentality of Cubs fans in general. They’re really the only base of baseball fans I can think of that routinely feel the need to go to opposing stadiums and fuck shit up.

I honestly think that it's not about being a fan of baseball or even the Cubs

it’s the whole WGN/loveable losers/douchebag Northsider thing that people fall into. It’s like going to an OSU game — there are fans and alums and students and then there are the idiots that show up for the ‘party’ and to ‘fuck shit up.’

No shit, the majority of arrested ‘students’ following the 2002 Michigan victory were actually not OSU students. They were from Akron, BG, Cincy, tons of small colleges. The actual number of OSU students arrested was something like 20 of the what 200? arrests?

Not saying that there should be any arrests, but my point is that big entities like Cubs/OSU/Red Sox/etc. bring in a bunch of fringe fans that aren’t there for the right reasons.

I couldn't agree more

I lived with a dude that was a Cubs fan like that, from northern IN. He loved to know when the Cubs were winning, but never watched a game. The only player he knew on the team was Derrek Lee, and he couldn’t spell it. Whenever they were in town, he’d talk me into going down to the ballpark with him, while he’d high-five the other random idiots when they did something notable, and yell at cheering Reds fans when the Reds did something good (at GABP, no less). It’s more cool for them to say they’re a fan of a team like the Cubs and say something like “they haven’t won in awhile, I’m not jumping on the bandwagon!” instead of actually following the team night after night like fans of other teams. Yeah, I hate Cubs fans.

Douchebag Northsiders

It’s funny, I always roll my eyes when fans of team x complain about fans of team y, because in general, people are just people; a fan of any other team would be as rude.

But the exception truly is Cubs fans, because of the douchebag Northsider contingent. I can’t comment on small-town Cubs fans, because I don’t know any, but I’ve been to the North Side of Chicago many times, and it’s really one of the nation’s strongholds of yuppie fuckfaces. They might as well rename the site to “Hot Chicks With Cubs Fans”.

It sucks losing games in which a pitcher's home run was the difference

At least Zambrano didn’t hit a three-run job like Josh Johnson last night.

Yeah no kidding
My only prediction is that we will see at least one home run by a pitcher tonight.

Thanks a lot Slyde.
