Tonight, I think we will find out if a team can win a game without actually scoring a run. Two excellent pitchers facing two bad offenses? We may not see any runs for the rest of the weekend.
You know Johnny Cueto desperately wants to make up for his atrocious performance last Monday against the Phillies. The real question is whether or not he is hurt or if it was just one of those nights. I'm fearful that it was the former, but hopeful for the latter. We'll see tonight, I suppose.
Johann Santana hasn't been his normal self lately. Over his last six starts, his ERA is 5.79 and the Mets are 2-4 in those games. Santana might just be suffering from a case of the Harangs since the Mets have scored a mere 3.06 runs per start for him. Hopefully, that trend will continue today.
Jay Bruce is back in the lineup tonight, batting 2nd. Strange that he would come back against a tough lefty, but hopefully the challenge will cause him to be more focused. I know we'd all like him to show us something special soon.
Game time is 7:10. With the pitchers on the mound, it could be over by 9:10.

First!
Over/under on number of times Taveras and Bruce reach base vs. Santana?
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
I'll take over
Taveras is due! ;-)
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I'll take even
They both get on base but Wily T. gets caught stealing because he slowed down to stick the thumb tac in his batting glove. Thus the 1.5.

under it is
Taveras and Bruce reached base 0 times against Santana. Taveras did single, but it was after Santana left.
I still think it would have been over if Bruce hadn’t been injured. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Also...
If by some miracle from the béisbol gods we happen to beat Santana tonight, he will have the exact some record as one Bronson Arroyo.
Funny game, this baseball.
I'm gonna be out for at least the first half of the game
So I won’t be able to help you all curse out the Mets! Bubba, you have to give regular updates on what the Mets crew is saying about Votto and if they continue clamoring for a brush-off!
I suspect a homeurn for Cueto, you just know he wants to make up for last week lol
Wait, they wanted a brush-off for Votto?
Do they think he crowds the plate or something?
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
yes
They said he was draping himself over the plate and Nieve should throw at his elbow to get him to back off.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
oh, they were
They saw the home run Votto hit in his previous at-bat.
I doubt they’d have said boo if he’d struck out.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
lol exactly
I watched a clip of Votto’s homerun and it did not appear he was draping himself at all. He’s probably beocming their Werth, they better not hit him though! I love that descritpion AMets radio gave of Votto “the wicked bat of Votto”. Thanks to Bubba, we can continue to hear such classics lol.
I hppe Votto has a monster night. He is turning into a bit of a Met killer
Incidentally, Cueto's ERA over his last 6 starts is 7.42.
The only thing that will make this game a quick, low-scoring affair will be the attrocious batting.
He sits alone...Reds are not home.
And before you clamor to throw out his last start,
it is 4.85 in the 5 starts prior to that.
He sits alone...Reds are not home.
He's been struggling of late, no doubt.
Hopefully he bounces back.
Like Slyde, I fear he has some sort of injury.
That's what my opinion was after last game,
considering how he looked in the beginning of his start against the D-Bags.
He sits alone...Reds are not home.
Anyone have a clue why Dusty is batting Bruce at the 2 spot?
Is it to get Bruce seeing better pitches or something? I really don’t get it.
He's hoping the pitchers don't realize it's Bruce...
People Don't Kill People. Burning Couches Kill People.
Can Paul Janish give up SEVEN runs in one inning?
Against this Mets team, that would truly be the stuff of legend.

I've got strong hopes
that this will be a really good night for Cueto and that this series is the one that we all look back to as the one that gave the Reds the jumpstart they need to win the division. Of course I also hope that someone will send me a check for about fifty thousand dollars next week. Hopefully, this won’t be another night when the double decker Lion’s Den Adult Superstore sign that shines in my living room and bedroom windows is more appealing than the game.

When Matsui broke his wrist, it looked a lot worse. He did throw the ball back in, but he was in so much pain the game came to a halt for a long time while they got him up and off the field.

Because they suspected he might be old and shitty.
And he had a bad spring training.

He struck out against Johnny Cueto

I was drinking tequila without wincing last night. Apparently, I had sex. Only the vaguest recollections. Is this win?

Have they announced Jay's broken wrist yet?
Or are they going to keep him active for a week before they decide to xray it?

I hope you're wrong
Stubbs I the long term answer for centerfield (although he should be the present answer). But Heisey hasn’t been stopped this year. Challenge him now and found out where his ceiling is. If it’s stubbs, fine. Unspectacular in right field, but fine.

Huh?
Mets crew just said the Reds though Jay was going to give the Reds a guy with a high average and some home runs, but he turned into the guy the Reds traded away. . . Adam Dunn.
This seriously posses me off. When did Adam Dunn hit .210? Where would the Reds have been the last 6 years without Adam Dunn.

Four runs is not insurmountable
The Halos spotted the Yanks four runs in each of their last two games, and came back to win.
Somehow, though, it feels like this game is over.
