In his dragons debut, Greene struck out 8 in 3 IP,  maxing at 100mph and consistent 96 to 98

The way this organization handles tall, rocket-armed lefties, he's destined to be wasted as a closer.

Caught a glimpse at a tv in a bar that said Votto fielded a foul grounder and wouldn't give it to a fan? And it's some sort of controversy? Any news on that, Ironman92?

Votto is a fantastic troll.

He has been trolling Phillies fans for a while. They boo, he trolls, they boo, he trolls. He’ll get random foul balls and either launch them into the upper deck or fake it.

He’s so damn odd....but he’s changed enough that I don’t think he’ll kill anyone. He’s wired very different!

Bailey threw well in 5.1 no hit innings. You could tell him start to lose it against the pitcher and eventually have u[ the tying run.

 

Votto will snap out of it.

Season, as expected, isn't much to talk about!

 

and I left out Greene did give up a few runs but overall a great first outing

It's still early, but this season is not inspiring any confidence. I might not make it to 5 games this year if they keep this up. If ownership/management doesn't care, why should I?

Anyone else NOT getting Reds games on FSO?

This is the 2nd night in a row that BOTH the regular channel and the alternate channel are showing the same thing. Last night Bundesliga Soccer and tonight the Cavs. Both were scheduled to air on the alternate channel, but showing on both.

First time starting a season 2-10 since 1955. Yikes. Tough to imagine a scenario where Price keeps his job. 

Imo, should have been fired two years ago.

They brought up a dude who gave up a HR to LF that scared the shit out of the fans sitting there. Next batter gives up a 475 ft HR to Yadi Molina. 475 feet to Molina! Next batter 4 pitch walk, next batter 5 pitch walk.

Thrn they replace him with the guy who just came up a gave up a grand slam....walked 2, then gave up a hit that I swear Adam Dunn gets to but high prospect Ervin can’t.

 

They are so awful and Price has been over his head his whole tenure

The HR that DeJong hit was a bomb. I have never seen a ball hit above the Kroger strikeout sign. 2nd level of the 2nd level of left field.

Joey Votto has started 12 games has 48 AB and still doesn’t have an extra base hit. 216 players have more walks and his base running has been atrocious.

Free pass

I took a brief look at their current box score in today's game. At this moment, because all his hits are singles, despite batting .265, Votto has a lower slugging % than Adam (.116 average) Duvall. That is sadly hilarious.

This team worse than last year’s?

Two weeks later, I’d like to re-ask this question...

2-12 and basically no signs of life.
