In the middle of the fourth, the Reds are leading 5-0. No lead is safe, of course, but the team's looking much better today than they have in what seems like a week.

That's usually not a bad pitch
but it is when you’ve thrown 8 straight pitches to the outside black to the same batter. Gotta work it inside at some point.
Good Lord, guys.
I’m back. We can stop giving up runs now.

According to the MLB Network announcers, the Reds are doomed.

after Giambi's HR, they were like, "Now we have a ballgame! No lead is safe here! The Reds should be worried, they don't want to let this one get away!"
I mean, I understand it’s a closer game now, but it’s not like it’s tied.

Nice comeback by Wood.
Let’s get those runs back…5 runs is not going to be enough today. Just feel it.

The walks aren’t very nice though. Colorado is a frustrating team. They always get hot at this stretch in the season and playing them in Colorado is not fair.

Honestly
Henne is only a slight downgrade from Matt Ryan. He’s got Brandon Marshall (as good as Roddy White). And DeSean Jackson is way more valuable in a vacuum than Matty Ice anyway
another fun fact from this league
I’m texting back and forth with BK and realized one of the guys kept Philip Rivers over Michael Turner, whom I drafted this year. :)

Exactly
Logan hitting in this situation is understandable before September, but not with expanded rosters.

There are all kinds of secondary effects to having Edmonds sit on that 40-man spot.

Would have been the perfect time to sub in an OF
Heisey looks lost and ended last inning. Double switch and Logan doesn’t have to bat .

I got a letter in the mail today
I can buy playoff tickets, but it is mighty pricey, and October 16th-23 I will be in Florida on vacation. hmmm.
You think wrong
I’d rather go through five tornadoes than another hurricane, given that I can get to shelter. :)

Unorthodox
Just a big city word for “bad.”
I really hate that Logan Ondrusek was given an at bat. It’s a direct result of poor roster management.

It seems to me that he kills the Reds for some reason
I’d look up facts to back that statement up, but let’s be honest…..I’m way too lazy for that.

so no.

fair enough
Did he kill us in a game/series or something? I have no idea why I feel this way.

Ridiculous

I simply don't believe these aren't Rox announcers
its completely legit, if a little Hawk Harrelson if they are…but this is just weird if they’re not.

why the fuck did Logan bat and start a second inning
doesn’t make any sense at especially with supposedly expanded rosters
I raised the point about why the hell he used Maloney and Fisher last night
in a lost game. He’s sowing the seeds now.

So maybe it was high.

it was ruled a fielder's choice
But usually there’s an out involved in those.
