Lets curse St. Louis...

lets curse wagner :irate: :outraged: :muttering: :moon: :censored:

isn't it funny that out of the 4 big fans' teams on this forum, the giants and braves are terrible and the reds and mets are good/great.

I will throw in my Astros who are not terrible, but haven't been playing that great lately

sorry, i didn't include, but i can probably speak for everyone when i say you should post a little more often.

Reds beat Jeremy Sowers in his major league debut (he was first drafted by the reds in the first round but didn't sign) the day after getting shut out by Paul Byrd of all people.

Royals up next, if the Reds dont sweep them I'm going to go ballistic.

Yeah that is true

Shut out yet again while Clemens pitches. This is driving me crazy.

We lost to the Royals. Nuff said.

you know what's kinda funny? i just looked at the NL standings and apparently my shi**y giants have the 5th best record in the league. how pathetic and somewhat humorous is that?

F*ck Jerry Narron. Bases loaded one out in the 7th inning, 2-2 game. Edwin Encarnacion is coming up to the plate. He has been the Red's best hitter for the past 2 weeks (when he has been in the lineup). The Mets bring in the mighty Chad Bradford. And Narrong f*cking pinch hits for Encarnacion with Hatteberg, who promptly strikes out. Reds lose in 10.

damn, cain was filthy all night, he got 2 outs in the 9th and then gave up a hit and a 2 run homer. we won 7-2, but i was hoping for a shutout.

Homer was compared to Cain the other day by baseball america ;-)

IMO I think Homer can be better than Cain, his ceiling is incredible. but the chance of him actually hitting that ceiling is probaly 1%. I haven't seen Cain this year, how's he looking? He's just 21 right? September birthday?

cain is like a lot of rookie phenoms, inconsistent. he'll look amazing like tonight and then go 4 innings and give up 5.

The Astros need a major overhaul offense wise because this is just sad.

Berkman wasn't in there tonight and Ensberg is hurt. What can you expect when that happens and Harang is on the hill. Harang is one of the best pitchers in the majors.

Yes, he is. He's a horse, too. I was at a game he was pitching a couple of weeks ago in Atlanta, and he threw about 150 pitches. Don't see that much any more.

I was pissed when he did that, granted we didn't have a reliable bullpen at the time. Bray and Guardado have been fantastic.
