Reds at Pirates, game 1

  • wildcats20
    Bronson looked really good tonight, nice to see.

    I have high hopes for this team; but if they continue to play well and win games like this, I think they can make a run at the WC if not the Cards for the division.

    Reds up 5 spots in the ESPN Power Rankings to number 16.

    Looking at the schedule, I think we play St. Louis like 50 times this year, and only play the Brewers like twice.....

    Nice play by Arroyo. Another quality start from the lanky righty.
    i never said tonight was exciting, but i do enjoy watching bronson work quickly.

    yeah this is a strange schedule, already the second time in pittsburgh also. if the reds could just figure out a way to take 2 of 3 from the cards one of these times.... i believe they will miss carp in the series this weekend.

    We play the Brew Crew 15 times. The first time is a 2 game set this coming Monday and Tuesday at GABP.

    We play the Cards 18 times, thus far we are 2-4 against them.

    And we don't play the Cubs again til the first week of July.

    After this 3 game series in Pittsburgh we play them in a 4 game series at home towards the end of this month and then not again til August.

    12 of those 18 will be by june 2nd, that's crazy. i'm not really sure it benefits either team, but with a younger reds team i'd rather play them more later in the year.

    Didn't really look at the dates for the Cards games(other than the 6 already played), that is pretty nuts.

    Bronson was "GOOD Bronson" tonight. When he's on, the Pirates as they currently are (young and pretty damn dumb) don't have much of a chance.

    Hopefully, Morton continues his recent non-embarrassing performance-streak (currently at two starts) tomorrow and the team can string some sort of offense together against Cueto.
