  • Ironman92
    Gotta keep smacking the Cubs.

    LIneup?
  • Ironman92
    I'm not John Fay.

    Volquez is going against Doug Davis who the Reds hit well against more often than not.


    Phillips is 9/21
    Votto 2/4
    Gomes 2/6
    Lewis 4/10....but I think GOmes is starting
    Hanigan is 2/2
    Hernandez 7/23

    Renteria is not available...but if he was he is 8/18 off of him.

    Fay will have it up around 4:00 on twitter....I'll guess with Dusty

    1. Stubbs CF
    2. Phillips 2B
    3. Votto 1B
    4. Cairo 3B.....see how well I know Dusty
    5. Bruce RF
    6. Gomes LF.....if he threw Gomes at #4 I would laugh...but not be shocked
    7. Hernandez C
    8. Janish SS

    Guarentee reds loss.


    because i just put all 2200+ vcash on them to win.
  • Ironman92
    Is Davis a lefty? If he was a righty I would've had Dusty with that lineup....didn't think Dusty would put Bruce in the 4 hole vs lefties only hitting about .340
  • Ironman92
    I could match your bet and put it on the CUbs and we could see who is more likley to jinx.
  • Ironman92
    WOW....he is a lefty.....Dusty is getting very tricky!
  • thavoice
    you h ave more to lose than I do!
  • Ironman92
    PREDICTION.....Davis is an 0-4 lefty....Gomes is a righty with 4 RBI last night

    Davis will pitch soft stuff away and Jonny will go 0-4 with 2 strikeouts
  • Ironman92
    It's the same amount to lose.....yes I'll have more left....but I have other bets I'll be losing.
  • thavoice
    0-4 Lefty vs the Reds.

    So, yeah....the reds lose.
  • Ironman92
    Probably will unless he throw those 88 mph fastballs middle in OR the righties actually take it opposite field.

    I won't be surprised in any way if Davis goes about 8 innings on 90 pitches and gives up about 5 hits.....for over a decade...that's what the damn Reds do. Fortunately though the Cubs suck and throw a lot of creampuffs...and the Reds are one of the best on creampuff hitting.

    Thank God Volquez cut off his hair. Is that some sort of penance for him?
  • SportsAndLady
    Volquez gets out of the 1st with 0 runs! It's a miracle!
  • sherm03
    EV only gives up a hit and K's two in the first. More importantly, he gets out of the first inning without giving up a run.


    Should have cut the hair a long time ago...
  • riders1
    No walks either!

    Get him a lead and then let's see how he does.
  • sherm03
    Struggling a bit here in the second. Gave up back-to-back doubles and the Cubs are up 1-0.
  • SportsAndLady
    Gomes got his swing back perhaps? Another single for him.
  • SportsAndLady
    Stubbs knocks in Janish, tied 1-1
