BengalRep85-9 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 This west coast trip is absolutely crucial if we want to seriously think this team can win the division. A disastrous 2-8 or 1-9 and I think that will put us too far back, ffs the PIRATES are 1/2 game behind us. This team needs to hit its stride and quickly. Not sure if the starting pitching will allow for it however. Here's to a productive road trip to keep us in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBandJoeyV Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 [quote name='Jason' timestamp='1307649694' post='996753'] A little speed, and better defense than Gomes. [/quote] His defense has been pretty bad, almost if not as bad as Gomes. Hes faster but he doesnt judge balls well at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes faster but he doesnt judge balls well at all. [/quote] Yeah. I'd rather see Gomes out there. At least Gomes is a threat to get hot and have a 5 RBI game. Lewis is just not a very good ball player. Might as well just bring up Frazier or Alonso and stop being so stubborn Dusty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBandJoeyV Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Cueto is a stud and turning into the Ace I thought he could be. Now lets get Bailey back and turn him into the ace he as hyped up to be. And then get Volquez pitching like the ace talent he has and showed in 2008.

[/quote] Fortunately was able to get out of the second without giving up a run, but has already given up 4 hits in two innings. Hopefully he'll get better as they game goes on.

JBandJoeyV Posted June 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Wood continues to give up hits...not fooling anyone. (He escaped again without giving up any runs, but thats not gonna keep lasting if he keeps pitching like this). Janish needs to go, his bat is fucking awful.

JBandJoeyV Posted June 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 How many times have we had to hear "Thats a tough loss for the reds this year"...Im starting to get pessimistic on this season. Just no breaks going our way and not doing the little things like we did last year. Cant win close games. Need leake to some how take down Lincecum tomorrow, but that is not a very good matchup. By the way for those not following, we walked 3 guys in the 9th inning before giving up one hit to lose it. Thats just fucking awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
