• Ironman92

  

  I'm feeling a big ol blowout....with huge stats....but no highlights for college football will take all.

  I hope so... you don't want to go into the playoffs playing as bad as they are now.
• Ironman92

  

  yeah.....but a 3 run Hr in the bottom of the 1st of the first playoff game and all is wiped away....until maybe Cordero comes in
• gerb131

  

  Unless thats your only runs and the Reds aren't scoring too much these days.
• Ironman92

  

  if it's your only runs and our pitching is great
  
  .....I think we get each other's points
  
  Not a playoff caliber team right now....bu many games left
  
  need top of the lineup to get on base

  Go Reds! Glad to see them put up more than 3 for Arroyo he could have 20+ by now I'd think. Need to get another one tomorrow and put together a little w streak for the confidence. How is Phillips looking?
• Ironman92

  

  Phillips is not Phillips still....he's very mediocre offensively right now and we'll need him near his best to have a shot in the playoffs
• Rotinaj

  

  Mediocre is putting it nicely. Dudes hitting .127 for the month. Hopefully he gets out of this slump before the playoffs start to build some confidence.
• Ironman92

  

  I've been critical of him over the years and am giving him a break fore I think he is still ailing with his hand...maybe some mentally.....we need him healthy and he should be resting more than he is and definately down the stretch
