Reds (Weaver) vs Brewers (Rea): 7/8/23, 3:10pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

Last night wasn't a pretty win but it was a win. Too bad Williams had to close out the game.

This afternoon, the pitching is less compelling. One might even call it pretty bad. This feels like it favors the Reds a bit but hey, it's baseball and anything can happen.

Score early, score often, please.

Hopefully a repeat of last night with Weaver pitching, score a bunch early and maybe the B Team can hold a lead. However, a blowup by Rea is certainly possible even though he has been excellent of late. Teheran will be available on full rest as well with the All Star Break coming up..

I don't get it, why is he even here then? Certainly not a defensive replacement.

Makes me wonder if he will be the one to go when TT is brought back up.

[82brewcrew82]

Yea, Rea.

[Brewcrew82]

Willy's hot, man. 

[82brewcrew82]

Stay hot Adames

[treego14]

Adames is upon us!

[Brewcrew82]

OPS back over .700

[homer]

Man if Adames could get back to average that would be a big boost.

[Brewcrew82]

Gotta make that catch, Tapia. 

[markedman5]

Tapia’s defense doesn’t inspire confidence 

[wildcat2237]

We can dfa Tapia any day now.

His bat doesn't inspire much confidence either.

A Tyrone Taylor swap is definitely in order.

[markedman5]

Way to pick him up Rea

[82brewcrew82]

Crooked number please

It's just a shame we gave Tapia like 2 million for a months work.

Did they just say Burnes is going to the All Star Game?

Yep. Been added in place of Spencer Strider, who is unavailable due to pitching today.

Have a chance to actually watch this game and fs1 is stuck on a race.

That’s odd - he’s had a mediocre year at best

He’s not deserving of being an All-Star
