what do you mean this game has been awful...

Reds 3-12 with RISP
DBacks 1-4 with RSIP

doesn’t that mean we’re winning? BA w/ RISP is the most important stat there is.

I’m sorry… but the game on the line and you’ve got a chance to drive in a runner from third without needing a hit – you have got to find a way. This kid has been a HUGE disappointment. The season has been long enough to say that now.

I can't believe he blew that

He also did some crap base running last night

by Red_Poodle on Jul 2, 2009 3:30 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I didn't say so last night

but I don’t think that base running was as bad as everyone makes it out to be. I don’t think it’s a given that he gets sent home anyway, and if he does I don’t think it’s a given that he scores.

He's definitely underperforming

But I don’t know what the answer is. He’s already proved he can mash AAA pitching and I’d rather see him challenge himself up here. Maybe he needs a confidence boost though.

no more pinch hitters left – should’ve let Richar hit for himself (lefty vs. righty, too), then have the pitcher take Richar’s place.
