It is just really frustrating when there is a GLARING weakness on this team (i.e. bullpen), and nothing is done to fix it. I guess a positive is that they have the Cubbies and Pirates for 20 more games so hopefully they can capitalize on that!

A BIG part of the problem is neither the Redlegs or Bengals are big $$market$$ teams because Bob Castellini and Mikey Brown are BOTH like-minded wallet tightwads! As long as they stay that way, and frustrating their fan bases endlessly, we'll seldom ever see another Cincy World Series or Super Bowl!

Wow, that's the last thing our guys 'need'! :( Prayers and thoughts with Nick as he mends. :thumbsup:

Also we've been without Mike Moustakas for what seems like 'forever'.

Tigers lost game 1 with the Royals on Fri 5-3. Currently tonight, the guys are winning 5-0 with Casey Maze pitching. 5th inning coming up and Maze has thrown 64 pitches. 5K's 2 hits and 1 walk so far. Rubber match, I hope is tomorrow afternoon at 1:10pm with Tarik Skubal giving it a go.

Still a strange name though in some ways.

More befitting of a security agency / firm headed up by Curtis Sliwa.

Cancel culture yet again influencing another sports team in a wrong direction by altering history and tradition.

The trading deadline is nearing this coming week so hopefully the Redlegs front office has plans to overhaul the bullpen i.e. :thumbupright:
