Bengals1181 Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 [quote name='JBandJoeyV' timestamp='1307285692' post='996077'] it was a 4-2 game with guys on second and third and they pinch hit with heisey who hit a 2 run single...i guess it comes down to what would you rather have a 2 run lead with 6 outs left with cueto at 88 pitches or a 4 run lead with 6 outs needed by the bullpen... either way the bullpen is to blame, no one else really imo. [/quote] I wasn't watching at that point, thanks. I thought it was already 7-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBandJoeyV Posted June 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 wood really sucks right now. I'm starting to think I way overestimated this starting rotation. Wood and volquez have been major disappointments and bailey can't stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBandJoeyV Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Jay bruce continuing to raise that batting average...3/4 tonight. Leake with great start 7 innings 2 runs...lets get some more insurance just in case the bullpen decides to do a repeat performance of Saturday.

JC Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Jay Bruce=GOAT in RF. Robbery that he isn't first in all star voting. Leake was benefited by some great defense tonight. Got out of multiple, multiple jams. Good for him. That's what we need. Let your defense do the work..because it seems like the guys are trying to hard and that's resulting in too many walks. Great start. Gain a game on the Cards and keep on trucking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
