Sure, a dumb managerial decision and a bad pitch have the Reds down by two, but this game isn't over.

Janis woulda got that one
We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come.
who knows?
he’s been a better hitter than OCab. But then again, he wouldn’t be allowed to bat 2nd, so you might be right
Reminder:
his season offensive stats (.266/.350/.405) are still better than Cabrera’s (.260/.303/.338).
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
but
Cabrera has 37 RBIs, while Janish has only 21.
Clearly, Cabrera is a better hitter!

That one, and a Mercedes Benz.

i figure the bullpen will be
LeCure
Ondrusek or Smith
Bray
Chapman
Rhodes
Masset
Coco
Joey Votto is my MVP.
this isn't looking real good here
he imploded against the Cardinals last series hopefully he doesn’t do that again
Hey, you know who I'm still happy isn't pitching right now

It's not that I am wishing death on him, but I think the world could be a better place if Carp would cease to exist.

Joey Votto is my MVP.
got ya
I’m not convinced Cobain’s version is really Votto’s AB music actually. It could easily be “Smells like Nirvana” by Weird Al, which would mean Votto is trying to make an ironic statemnt about grunge music.
Or, he just likes how that nice, loud intro sounds in GABP.

really needed the time off, way to go
"I gotta show em' how to eat right man, that's all...I got all five food groups. Pancakes, sausage-egg McMuffin, cinnamon roll, large orange juice... I just be juiced all day."
that would be good

He's out now
and that makes me feel relieved. The thought of a Felipe Lopez/Bill Bray matchup would have made me flashback to bleaker times.
you know Majewski is still only 30?
There’s hope yet

This team is pathetic against the Cardinals.
This team is roughly .500 against good teams though, awesome against shitty teams, and really struggles against the worst team with the worst fans in baseball.
Correction: This team can't consistently beat the Cardinals or Phillies.
Two teams that have soundly beaten the shit out of the Reds this year.
Phone's ringing, Dude.
The Astros...
oh, wait
What does a mama bear on the pill have in common with the World Series? No cubs.
yep.
We were in each and every game of that series.
"Red Reporter - An elitist clique full of like-minded douchebags." - BK
You're missing the point..
The point is that if we play them in the playoffs, we have just as good a chance to win as they do.
common, man.
Those games could have gone either way, and the reds were playing their worst baseball over that stretch.
"Red Reporter - An elitist clique full of like-minded douchebags." - BK
yeah that was why they wre so tough
we could easily beat the Phillies in my mind it’s just a matter of the ball rolling our way this time
and we've proven we can hit halladay
even though we didn’t the next time we faced him. How good would he look in a Reds uni…
And a 9th inning meltdown.
A few breaks here and there and we win 3 of 4.

That's what I'm saying.
They can’t consistently beat good teams like the Cards and Phillies, and that is not a good sign.
Phone's ringing, Dude.
Against other teams with a .500 record, besides those 2, the Reds have a winning record.
The Cardinals won’t be in the playoffs, don’t have to worry too much about them. The Phillies will be, and we played them extremely close in our games against them this year.
Fuck it...
came in up 8, leaving up 7. Ain’t no thang.
What does a mama bear on the pill have in common with the World Series? No cubs.
yeah
avoided the sweep, which is cool. we’re banged up, and as much as i hate losing to the cards, we’re still up 7 games with not a ton to play.
looks like a slug

??
What does a mama bear on the pill have in common with the World Series? No cubs.
The "magic number" has shrunk.
They picked up 1 game in the standings in a 3 game series and now have less time to make up the rest of the games. If they picked up just 1 game every 3 game series, we’ll still be in first place in 18 days. But they don’t get to pitch Garcia, Wainwright, Carpenter every series – that’s reserved treatment for the Reds.
i'm not afraid of any colorado pitching besides ubaldo
i think they consistently play over their heads.
which is a problem when you need to play them

Dewayne Wise
is being surprisingly useful this year, despite having a gawd-awful OBP. But then then, that pretty much sums up the Jays this year. A whole lotta hitting despite a terrible OBP.

Whoa state of the day
Reds vs 1st/2nd place teams 14-26 (.350)
"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, October 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped, and summer was gone." - A. Bartlett Giamatti

More important stat of the day
Reds record versus everyone 79-57 (.581)
What does a mama bear on the pill have in common with the World Series? No cubs.
It's actually 20-21
and would go to 23-21 if the A’s can win today to get to .500 (assuming you meant .500 or better).
Red Reporter or follow on Twitter: @redreporter. Buy The Wire-to-Wire Reds today!
And the Cardinals are 26-16
and it ain’t gonna do them a lick of good.
By the way, that stat isn’t right. The Reds are 17-26 against 1st/2nd place teams. I imagine Lance left out Oakland, which I’m assuming he’ll say doesn’t count so that he can make his numbers more dramatic. And the Reds are 11-14 against first & second place teams when you take out the Cardinals.
Red Reporter or follow on Twitter: @redreporter. Buy The Wire-to-Wire Reds today!
And I say take out the Cardinals because, frankly, they just have the Reds number this year
and also because they aren’t going to the playoffs. Yep, I said it.
Red Reporter or follow on Twitter: @redreporter. Buy The Wire-to-Wire Reds today!
this is just one loss
and we still have a 7 game lead, but I think losing to teh Cardinals is so unpleaant because we have lost to them 11 times!
They have to go out and play well tomorrow. It’s Jiminez, and they have just faced a buzz saw of 3 great pitchers. Last time this happend they lit up one of th best pitchers in the NL, Josh Johnson. Ubaldo, get ready for the ERA to gain a point!
this is kinda off topic
but I’m pretty pumped for our bullpen next year. Arredondo, Masset, CoCo, Ondrusek, Burton (?), Smith, EDR (?), Rhodes if he re-signs, Bray if he improves.
yeah our bullpen is in pretty good shape
a few pitchers in it tend to have more bad outings than others but we don’t have a Coffey in there.
Bats clinched a playoff spot yesterday
Kind of backed into it. A loss by Syracuse took them out of the wildcard race.
With two games left, the Bats are half a game behind the Clippers. One of them will be the wild card, the other the division winner.
The recently promoted Jeremy Horst goes tonight for the Bats.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
uh, boy
Nobody wants to win the IL West, it appears. Bats losing. Clippers losing by a lot.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Bats tied up the game
But Danny Ray gave up two runs and the lead.
Columbus down 9-1 to Toledo, so it looks like the standings aren’t going to change tonight, barring a last minute comeback.

"Nothing wakes you up on a cold January morning like hot horse-piss." - Kevin Mitchell is Batman
I think it's the Sunday conversation
Catch it if you can. He’s as honest as I’ve seen an athlete in an interview in a long long time. Hell, I almost started to get a little weepy when he was talking about his dad dying and his eyes welled up a little.
"Nothing wakes you up on a cold January morning like hot horse-piss." - Kevin Mitchell is Batman
I'll go and find that
hopefully someone is youtubing it as we type. I’d love to see him on the Sunday Conversation—I just hope thge experience was good for him. I can see how opening up could be either liberating or unpleasant (maybe a bit of both).
he basically admitted that he was really frustrated about his all star snub, resulting in his ejection at Wrigley the next day
"Nothing wakes you up on a cold January morning like hot horse-piss." - Kevin Mitchell is Batman
I expected as much and I think we had all pretty much presumed it
he must have been really angry about that—and rightfully so. That was an unbelievable snub. I remember at the time I was really concerned we’d lose that game once he left, and most of us were annoyed he got himself ejected, because Lily was pitching. But, that was the game where Corky Miller hit one out of the park and Janish went 4-4. Memorable game and day. I’m glad the ejection didn’t come back to bite us or Votto.
If you find a video of it, let us know a link!
I’m looking, but haven’t found it yet.

I think some good person
will have it up on youtube soon. Hopefully we don’t have to go through too much NASCAR. Did you see the promo on ESPN for their sportscenter or ESPN2?
Just saw promo on ESPN
looks like it is the “Triple Crown” highlight that they had on the list earlier before NASCAR took over ESPN2.
Gnight, Slim
get to see it?
I thought that was a good interview. jch said it was an honest interview and I think he’s right. There was palpable disgust in his voice with respect to celebrity.
The Ted Williams stuff was great. He really is a student of teh game it seems. It would be unbelievable if Votto managed to get the triple crown. Obviously I’m pulling for our guy, but if Pujols somehow managed to get it that would be incredible too. Now I hope that Omar Infante doesn’t wreck it for them or my little pony in Colorado.
Yeah, he REALLY doesn't like fame :)
"Nothing wakes you up on a cold January morning like hot horse-piss." - Kevin Mitchell is Batman
lol yeah
he seems to be fine with doing SI and what not but I suppose other aspects of celebrity don’t sit well with him. He seems to be incredibly private so he probably doesn’t like the idea of letting people get to know you in any more than a professional way as often goes along with celebrity.
I’m not sure what his reasons are, but I think you’re right about that being a fairly honest interview.
Wow, a 2 RBI sac fly in the ATL-FLA game

Logan Morrison, yet another good-looking Marlin rookie, took a foul ball to the side of his head in the batter’s box. Looked to be bleeding and dazed, but left under his own power. Had to go to the hospital for x-rays, etc. Had 2 doubles and a triple today against Braves pitching. Kid’s got a sweet swing, hope he’s alright. He’d look good in LF for the Reds. He’s a 1st Baseman, but doing alright in LF.

That was a scary ass injury
He had a gnarly bump under his eye.

I just saw the replay and it was nasty
I saw he tried to get up on his own, but they forced him to wait. Hopefully he has no lasting damage. I knew a girl who played softball and took a pitch in nearly the same spot it took her weeks to fully heal, but she thankfully had no lasting damage.
Rox now only 4.5 out of West lead
Padres may hit the snooze button too many times.
And this next series just got a whole lot more interesting.
You're never as bad as you look when you lose. You're never as good as you look when you win.
I think we'll do well in Colorado.
This team seems to come back well after tough series. And it’s crazy, but although we lost 2 of 3 to the Cards I feel pretty good after this weekend.

hard not to
The Cardinals are still up shit creak without a paddle, and gaining just one game in the standings really doesn’t change much, time is running out.
I am looking forward to drinking a beer and watching the NLDS.
Joey Votto is my MVP.
I have been worried about this series for a while now
because of the way we played against them last year. This is a different team though. I just hope they haven’t gotten too confident. The Rockiex will be trying to win every game with everything they’ve ot. They could win their division.
That game sucked.
And Cardinal fans are total douches.

I just stumbled across this article
where Dusty talks about who he thinks is cool. Is this completely made up?! If not I think Dusty compared Votto to the Most Interesting Man in the World.
bizarre as it sounds
It’s not made up. It’s the NY Times baseball blog. Tyler Kepner is one of their regular baseball journalists, and he doesn’t make stuff up.

thanks for the info
I just felt like I walked into some spoof site despte the fact that it said NYtimes. Dusty is a strange, but amusing guy.
Kepner
is the guy who wrote the NY Times piece on the Reds. They must have sent him to St. Louis for that. That blog entry is probably material that didn’t make it into the article.
