April 20, 200718 yr comment_475008 Lets hop they can get some base hits and get to hamilton to see if he can hit his 6th home run.
April 20, 200718 yr comment_475009 Lane is really locked in at the moment. Your starting pitching completely shut the Stros down, but the pen...ouch Still one more chance for the Redlegs, and Wheels went 2 full innings last night
April 20, 200718 yr comment_475020 Arroyo is probably pissed. He has pitched good every time out. What does he have..........0 wins and2 losses.
April 20, 200718 yr comment_475026 Bullpen pitched shitty and Castro pinch hit for Ross in the 9th instead of using Valentin.
April 20, 200718 yr comment_475027 i went outside and played some basketball, i come back in and see this bullshit wow. i was going to go to the reds game tomorrow, fuck that.
April 20, 200718 yr comment_475030 Perhaps it will be a good thing if the Reds get off to a shitty start, at least that will lower our expectations and won't make it such a surprise when they are at or near first place in the Central at the All-Star break before going into their predictable late-season skid. Hey, maybe if they suck it up now, they'll turn it around later in the year! Reverse psychology and all...nahh, nevermind. Weathers and Coffey are still on our team. Goddammit! I hate the Reds sometimes, and yet every year, I get sucked into watching and listening to every game I can catch. HORRIBLE loss tonight. I hope Narron lets them have it.

April 20, 200718 yr comment_475267 [quote name='Jason' post='475171' date='Apr 20 2007, 09:27 AM']Josh Hamilton used to pitch, make him an outfielder/reliever.[/quote] All the Reds pitchers would get embarrassed by seeing that an outfielder can throw harder than most of them.
April 20, 200718 yr comment_475284 Pretty much doubting that. Pitching isn't just about "throwing 95 MPH". This isn't high school...major leaguers can easily hit that.

He does have better stuff than almost anyone on our team.
