April 16, 20196 yr comment_1589610 https://www.mlb.com/news/yasiel-puig-homers-against-dodgers They're hitting that Bengals sweet spot of good enough to watch but not good enough to get your hopes up! (& like the Bengals, that's an improvement so I'll take it for now)

May 9, 20196 yr comment_1592363 Good News. I thought MLB.TV had auto renewed for the season, but my credit card info wasn't stored, so when I finally (today) got around to logging in, I couldn't.

May 19, 20196 yr comment_1592751 Everybody remain calm but they've actually been playing pretty well recently
May 19, 20196 yr comment_1592759 OK I take it back.. I think Puig has them all smelling their own farts a bit. 5 games under .500, winning a few in a row is nothing more than a nice gesture. Maybe go easy on that shoulder lean when you're jogging off a useless solo HR? Radio yutz says they are 0/8 on Sundays so far this year
May 20, 20196 yr comment_1592775 Thought I heard they were some ridiculous margin of losses in 1 run games compared to the rest of the league. Think Iggy being shaky has hurt. Hopefully they get Wood and Scooter back and can right the ship before it gets to the point they have to sell.

Yeah I really don't understand what their strategy is for the next few years, like what was the point of renting Puig for one season? I can't imagine extending him.
June 17, 20196 yr Author comment_1593722 It's just shocking that this team has the #2 ERA in the NL playing half their games in Great American Launching pad and has a losing record. The next lowest team ERA with a losing record is 0.8 runs higher.

June 29, 20196 yr Author comment_1594018 ...and this one belongs to the Reds!!!!! I love beating the Cubs almost as much as the stealers.
July 9, 20195 yr comment_1594207 So are we gonna double down or cash in our chips? Trying to game the system & do both has been a disaster for that other team in town we're always talking about. Aside from the fan outreach, sense of direction, obvious & clearly-stated desire to win not just "The Big One" but as a consistent expectation, the investment, the willingness to take smart risks but also admit mistakes & move on as best as they can (Bye-bye, Bailey) the impatience with just being average & having hard standards... Where was I going with this... Oh yeah, the one thing both teams have in common besides ZIP code is the need to make some tough decisions about the roster.
July 13, 20195 yr comment_1594336 Tried to listen to some of Inside Pitch on WLW on the way home. All I got from it is that Chick Ludwig is still an insufferable ass.
