February 28, 200818 yr comment_636440 Ok rant on! Majewski is foking terrible. I cant stand that retard, everytime i see him warm up in the pin i start to cringe. Ive ranted about his dumbass before. But everybody said things like...ehhh he's playing hurt give him some time. Next year he'll come around blah blah fokin blahhhh. Well its next year everybody. And guess what! Were off to a great start again with majewski. All these new pitchers came in yesterday in our exhibition opener and did a pretty dayum good job. They throw majewski in and here what he does. Majewski IP-.1 H-6 R-6 ER-6 ERA-168.00 I swear to god. If the reds dont put him down to the dayu minors. The reds wont be shit once again this year. Hes a CANCER! Report
February 28, 200818 yr comment_636456 On a positive note the rest of our pitching has pitched pretty damn good the past two days, they won 6-1 today, with this being their pitching... Cincinnati IP H R ER BB SO HR ERA Belisle 2.0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0.00 Fogg 2.0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0.00 Mercker 1.0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0.00 Weathers 1.0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0.00 Cordero 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.00 Stanton 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.00 Lincoln 1.0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0.00 Only gave up 5 hits, all singles, 1 run was unearned...so far so good Report
February 29, 200818 yr comment_636575 We don't really need him. We already have Cordero, Weathers, and Burton. Roenicke and Coffey are in direct competition for his spot. Report
February 29, 200818 yr comment_636582 I hope Coffey comes around. He's got the heat, but he lacked endurance and mental fortitude last year. Hopefully with all the weight he lost and a new attitude he makes it back into the bullpen as a quality reliever. Bray needs to get healthy too. Report
February 29, 200818 yr comment_636716 The Reds finished on top of the Grapefruit League last year, and look where it got us. The sky is not falling...yet. Report
February 29, 200818 yr Author comment_636890 I could give a shit less if we win or not. BUT this is a very GOOD test for a supposed good pitchers that we've picked up this year. Remember the pitchers are supposed to be ahead of the hitters and performing well. The pitchers also arent facing Full blown lineups. Oh on another note. The mister VOLQUEZ stud that everybody was praising. You know the guy we gave up HAMILTON for. Well he made his debut today. 1.2 IP 5 hits 3 Earned runs. Those really look like the stats of an up and coming! WHAT A TRADE! Report

February 29, 200818 yr Author comment_636918 i didnt like the trade from the start. And no im not BASING the entire trade off this one game. I was stating the fact that his opener sucked. Which puts the ball on my side of the floor at the beginning of the game. Yeah the rest of the game is still to be played. But right now my opinion has the advantage. -fucking idiot Report

Pre-season is the time for pitchers to shine. Hitters are rusty. They dont face "real line-ups" Its a well known fact pre-season is a pitchers game.

I dont know exactly, but Im not gonna make judgements on a guy that gave up 2 hits in his spring training debut. Report

March 10, 200818 yr comment_642184 Predicting someone's greatness based on spring training numbers is just as foolish as predicting their demise based on spring training numbers. If Josh stays healthy, and more importantly stays clean, I am sure he will do just fine. If he plays like he did last year, he will be due some very big time money here very soon...and likely would have been too expensive for us to keep anyways. Everyone around here has been crying for pitching, but nobody wanted to trade anybody other than Adam Dunn. You gotta give some to get some. Only time will tell how that deal works out. Report
