There's that Big Jon soft hands party. I'm telling y'all. Hands are SO good. He makes it look easy. 🥰

[Joseph Zarr]

Oh Joey. Oh Joey. Having a couple classic rookie mistakes today. Woof.

[Joseph Zarr]

I swear the Reds' Matt McClain has put on 15 lbs since just last season. He was not this built last year in the lower levels. Not even remotely. What a wild physical transformation. Their club has to be tickled pink.

Argh. Come on, Rea. Get through five.

Rea has been quite the offseason pickup for the Brewers. Who knows where they would be without him. He's made 9 starts and has gone 5+ in 8 of them. He's also yet to give up more than 4 ER in a start. He's been a big time upgrade of Jason Alexander last season.

[Joseph Zarr]

Wiemer catches that screamer to CF (which he should have) and Rae essentially has 0-1 runs? Can't recall. Regardless, this has been a fantastic outing from Rae. His 2-seamer (for the most part) and his curve have been really dang good today.

[Joseph Zarr]

And, as per usual (good grief), @wiguy94and I essentially double post. We do it every Tuesday and Wednesday night in the Minor League threads. We're obnoxious.😅

I dunno, man, butterfly effect and all.

Reds announcers: "Joey Votto starts his rehab assignment tonight..." 

Thinks to self:

"When isn't Votto on a rehab assignment these days?"

These walks are giving them life……..

[Joseph Zarr]

Seven steals for the Reds? My goodness. 

[Sixtolezcano]

Yea a strike.

 

[Joseph Zarr]

I will say seeing Megill for the first time with the Brewers, I absolutely get why the Brewers sold Erceg to Oakland. Megill has more experience. He essentially throws the same stuff but with more size and we bought him. Just throwing it out there. Regardless of how this inning goes, btw.

[willie key]

Take him out.     My god

[Sixtolezcano]

Time to pull Megill.

[Nola Beery]

Let's not let this get ridiculous, now. :-/

[markedman5]

What the hell,is going on out there ?

[markedman5]

Just ridiculous 

[Sixtolezcano]

Counsell please open your eyes now.Wake up.

[Nola Beery]

Killah Megillah.  Get him out.

[Joseph Zarr]

EIGHT stolen bases? WHewwwwww. That's a first since 1976 😅

[willie key]

9 stolen bases.    What the heck.      That’s not professional baseball.      What the heck is this.    U8 travel ball

 

our catchers are embarrassing 

[markedman5]

Line drive at Miller mercifully ends the inning………..

[mohlmonster]

With an 80% success rate league-wide on stolen bases, why not steal? Feel like teams should be stealing more often than they are
