Nice work by Stubbs taking out one of the only worthwhile players on this team. I hope for Phillips' sake that he isn't out long, his Gold Glove may be at stake if he misses weeks instead of days. :-)

The Reds aren't good enough to warrant a new thread every season. :-)

It's the Reds. We don't deserve a new thread each and every year.:-)

The Reds Win! Stubbs with a good day at the plate but made up for it with a nice error in the outfield :-) :-) :-)

Reds win! Reds win! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Only 9 1/2 out! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

And back in third place.:-)

Wait... baseball is still being played???? Oh noes!
[Reply]

Not by the Cubs..... :-)

Or anyone else in the NL Central (other than the Brewers).:-)

Being in the weakest division in baseball certainly doesn't help. The Brewers will have a decent shot at beating the Wild Card team with the home-field advantage. :-)

Do the Reds just really hate when Willis pitches? He has had 6 quality starts and has zero wins. :-)

Stubbs update 1-4 with 2K's, now over the 150 mark upping his MLB lead! :-)

Heck Stubbs is only 39 off the Top 10 in a Seaon... I really think he doesn't want A. Dunn to be the only one on the list...

Heck, Stubby at his current rate of 151 SO/ 116 Games (played by the Reds) = 1.30SO/game, he's on pace to make it to tied for #2 all time single season (211). Way to go Stubbs, at least you'll do something spectacular this season!
[Reply]

Would that get him in the Hall of Fame? Or at least the Reds Hall of Fame? :-)

Reds win! Reds win! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Wow no comment about yer boy Stubbs, did you just write an if/then program to check the Reds score and post that whenever they win..?
[Reply]

Yep. Hey are you ever going to smoke with us again?
[Reply]

Stubbs is 0'fer and adds 2 K's, he wants that MLB record. And the Reds win without him again. :-)

Whilst watching the game the other day, one of the Reds announcers made the assertion, "I always thought Stubbs was the fastest player in the NL, but maybe now I think Campana might be faster." Now that is comedy. He might not even be the fastest guy on the Reds, and he is certainly not even close to the fastest guy in the NL :-)

96.7% of Dan's posts in this thread are "Red Win", unfortunately there are less and less of them lately. :-)

Nothing like taking one out of three from the Rockies and getting out played in all of them. Only 11 games back, time to make a run :-)

Tonight... assuming its not 10000000 degrees again... oh yeah, we also got together 2 weeks ago at the Pub, guess you didn't feel like coming :-)
[Reply]

I know Stubbs is fast, but getting a runner on is the most important thing, its way past time to look for someone who isnt leading the universe in strikeouts as your leadoff batter... at least A. Dunn had the decency to strike out a Gazillion times batting 4th :-).
