He's cooled because he never gets at bats... I don't know why it's so hard for CC to figure out that guys need to play to be productive. He looked like Benjamin Buford "Bubba" Blue. That’s why he didn’t see a lineup for awhile. I'm not saying Pina is awesome but I think we can all agree he's far better defensively, and his 2nd half OPS is about 100 points better than Kratz. It is indeed pretty puzzling.
-
Even if we lose, it's not over, but with so few games game and none against the Cubs, it goes without saying that dropping a game to them at this juncture is highly damaging to any chance of winning the division.
-
Well, at least it didn't get away from us. Come on, offense.
-
Likely because Pina is not good either. Horse apiece. .301/.343/.419/.762 in the second half and the far better defender. I don't think that's a tough call.
-
I just don't know why Kratz has basically become our starting catcher.
-
Be better, offense.
-
Well this isn't good.
-
Other teams rotations don’t walk guys? Man, what is Stearns thinking. He should go get those guys. Since the start of the trip to Wrigley the starters specifically are averaging over 7 walks per 9. Obviously they've been winning, so no harm no foul, but that number is playing with fire. Not that it should never happen but it shouldn't happen quite so frequently especially with Peralta no longer in the rotation.
-
Stop walking guys and 2 out doubles won't hurt you like that.
-
Well, in the right context it is, lol. Seriously though, when you consider he took over a rebuilding team with a poor farm system, I'd agree that's quite impressive.
-
Christian Yelich. Because MVP's shouldn't have a .320 on-base percentage.
-
They hadn't made the playoffs in 26 years and felt it slipping away as they were in a big September rut and wanted to make a desperation move to try to spark the team. I think it was pretty fully baseball related.
-
I already despise the Cubs enough without seeing them pull off win after win by the skin of their ass this year.
-
Scooter destroys us, has been utterly worthless against the Cubs.
-
The Cubs are doing what they should be doing against an inferior team. The Reds have absolutely nothing to play for at this point. Sometimes those are the most dangerous teams. Loose. Obviously not in this case. You would sure like to think the Reds could win a game in which they allow 1 run.
-
Sal Romano sucks.
-
Reds can start scoring some runs anytime now.

2018 Standings and Playoff Race Discussion

It puts a lot more value on winning your division which should be a huge advantage. The Wild Card should be a harder path to winning a World Series and in the past it wasn't, now it is. This is one of the better changes they have made. Also teams play different schedules, being better by a game or two over 162 really means nothing at all. If there is a 20 game gap between teams I get your point but most of the time it is 2 or 3 games and that is nothing. If you want the highest chance to win in the playoffs win your division, every team has plenty of time to accomplish that. No, I disagree, I think it was one of the worst changes they have made. 4 playoff teams made a lot of sense and they really watered things down further, and reducing a 162 game season to 1 game makes no sense to me. The format punishes teams without a true ace (us) and rewards teams that might be lesser overall but have one or two TOR starters. At this point they might as well go to the NFL 6 team format and just give byes to the top 2 division winners and have the other 4 teams play a best of 3 in the WC round. You say division winners should receive a huge advantage -- why? Why should they have a 50% better chance? In what other professional sports league are division winners afforded that much of an advantage? The NFL has 2 bye teams. Other than that, your advantage is homecourt. In every professional sport. The Indians have won 8 and 9 less games than the A's and Yankees, respectively. And it's not enough for them to be in the playoffs, you think they should be entitled to a huge advantage? Based on what, exactly? -

I hate the second wild card. It's crap that you can now be better than a team for a 162 game season and have it all taken away in one single game. If you have one bad day, none of the 162 now matters. I realize that I seem very biased on this because of the position we are in but I said the same things when they introduced the second wild card. -
Well we took care of our own business, all we can ask. The Cubs are not going to run the table. Just keep winning.
-
Never thought the Nationals would give up 10 runs in a Scherzer start. We'll call it karma for pushing his start back to miss the Cubs.
-
It would be nice, but I'm not too worried about that. Teams eliminated or near elimination still typically want to play hard to the end and finish strong. It's not like they're going to rest starters. In some cases they may actually loosen up. The ones who are basically just resting for the playoffs and putting out AAA lineups are the ones you have to worry about not being competitive.
-
Yeah I don't want any part of the Dodgers in a 1 game. I'll take my shot with the Cardinals, and I expect that to happen. It'll either be total elation, or devastation.
-
My mind: Pitch 1: "Santana is definitely trying to hit Pina." Pitch 2: "Nevermind, just a rookie who is wild as heck."
-
"Seem tos" are seldom accurate. Didnt the Brewers just beat them 4 times in close games? 4 times isn't accurate either. 2 of those 4 games were close.
