Reds @ Rangers....Game 2

• Ironman92

  

  Leake masterful again so far but 3 Reds errors in one inning (I think in 4 batters) gave up 3 unearned runs and they've hardly hit anything hard....but a lot of extra pitches.
  
  Reds lead 4-3.....Choo getting it done versus the righty.

  Tell me again why Hannahan is on this team? Let alone, starting

  To keep slightly more deserving guys from backing up Frazier and giving him a day off about 1/10 of the games.....like Votto could use for a few rotations. Not everyone is Lou Gehrig

  I'll bet the Reds lead the league, by a wide margin, in percent of times they fail to score after hitting a lead-off double!

  Hit a run scoring double, Votto. Fucking do something

  SMH, stirkes out. Average is still .323 though!!!
• Ironman92

  

  Two times that inning Dusty could go argue......this is as frustrating of a stretch I can remember in a long time.
  
  We should be winning by no fewer than 6 runs.

  His two errors have thus far cost us this game and Leake a win.....maybe he'll win it for us.
  
  Frazier's AB after Heisey's is possibly the best example of Dustyball anyone could ever give.
  
  In other news Mesoraco can't throw out anyone or hit.
• Ironman92

  

  Stat of the night (and it's fucking fucking awesome) Zoo man Jack has seen 7 SEVEN pitches and has struck out twice and hit into a double play.

  Frazier sucks...he's horrible.
  
  Cozart, garbage.
  
  Robinson..not what we hoped.
  
  Mesoraco, FLOP
  
  Hannahan..garbage
  
  Basically we have a few good hitters that have been Dustied, and a good pitching staff.

  Did you see his first K? Play by play shows 6 pitches in that AB, two balls, and a 2 strike foul.
• Ironman92

  

  Texas has hit two balls against our BP that I have no idea how didn't go 20 rows deep.
  
  This is one of those Reds games where they just suck the life out of you all game and really do nothing well......then fuck out a bullshit win on something stupid lucky. Some shit ass reliever will be sucky and get the win.
• mhs95_06

  Cozart has more doubles than Votto and more RBI than Choo. But he throws away more ABs than both combined.
• Ironman92

  

  Meso no sacrifices since 2009
  
  Dusty gives him the sign
• Ironman92

  

  Then Meso hits it 703 feet

  Recipe for a blown save -- walk the first batter with a 2 run lead!

  He's hitting .238, he has 19 RBIs lol
  
  He fucking sucks. You're just too stubborn to give in on this since last year when we disagreed on this.

  He's still young. And RBI is a dumb stat to use. Always.

  Well then send him down to AAA?
  
  That's a terrible argument. He's in the big leagues isn't he? He's going to be judged as a big leaguer.
  
  And he's judged as someone who has now 19 RBI's in 45 games. Something like 1 RBI every 8 at-bats.
  
  Not good.

  That plays out to, what, 70+ for a full season? From the guy batting 8th. And it's dependent on guys getting on ahead of him. Not terrible.

  Our whole offense blows. No need to call out just 1. And apparently we've become a bad defensive team too. But of course none of this is Dustys fault. It's magic!!
