Gonna keep a running thread this year of plays Elly makes look way easier than they are, thus he doesn’t get enough credit for. Bookmark this and add to it throughout the year.
“Most educated fanbase”
It’s not the “Best Fans in Baseball” losing interest, it’s not the decline of baseball, it’s not weekday games or a lackluster roster It’s management assuming the most educated baseball fan base is stupid that’s keeping Cardinals fans out of Busch Stadium
Somehow this is gonna be the worst Espinal hitting situation of the season. I'm at a loss of words.
The McLain thing is a major, major bummer. But I think we can all agree you ride that one out. But my goodness there's just no freaking way that Espinal should have been given this many chances to hurt the Reds. Giving back almost 2.5 wins with him is a leadership failure.
Win Probability Added Leaders - Best & Worst
If Espinal hits I want Tito investigated like Luis L. Ortiz
Hopefully use Marte to hit for Espinal but seems like Terry will just use his favorite player in that spot
Just FYI, Nick Pivetta ($13.75M AAV): 3.0 fWAR Yusei Kikuchi ($21.2M AAV): 1.9 fWAR NICK MARTINEZ ($21.05M AAV): 1.8 fWAR Luis Severino ($22.3M AAV): 1.7 fWAR Jack Flaherty (17.5M AAV): 1.0 fWAR Sean Manaea ($25M AAV): 0.2 fWAR Walker Buehler ($21.05M AAV): -0.4 fWAR
Also, Reds fans would have freaked out over trading Spencer Steer or Tyson Lewis for a couple months of Naylor. Which is right at the BTV surplus value of what the Mariners gave up.
Shocked by the people who are surprised by the Naylor return. Does everyone need to re-learn the fact that rentals don't fetch much on the trade market every season or...?
19 years ago today. I think about it every All-Star break.
18 years ago this week, the Reds traded 2 starting position players (essentially) for two mediocre relievers. They were four games back. Kearns and Lopez had posted 3.2 fWAR to that point. Still maybe the most bizarre trade I can remember. I still think back and laugh about it.
Reds are down 2-1 and -150 to win the game. There aren’t words in languages we know to describe how bad this Rockies team is. This is completely and utterly embarrassing.
I don’t know how many more times I can say “man that’s the worst loss of the year”
Was almost certainly gonna get another AB. Run this guy outta town man. I can’t do this for two more years.
Marte out of the game is surely a joke?
The Reds really did turn to one of the worst hitters in baseball against one of the best pitchers in baseball with 2 outs remaining. Make him explain it so it makes sense.
To: Nick Krall It is time to add talent to the #Reds’ bullpen. Best, atRedsInFour
Rece Hinds has a wRC+ of ZERO against teams not named the Rockies and Marlins. wRC+ of 5 for the season. Not a big leaguer. We don’t have to do this.
