The Reds are going after it next year, as much as they can afford too.
coachjc Champion Author Cincinnati Posts:2,777 Points:1,899,970 Joined:Mar 2006	Message Posted: Dec 13, 2012 8:05:23 AM Ignore coachjc Report Abuse I am glad that Drew Stubbs will get a chance to play baseball someplace else. He is such a tremendous talent, I hope he succeeds except when he plays against the Reds!

I am not blaming Phillips, Rolen or Hanigan. The Reds would not be in the playoffs without those guys!
FXSpringer01 Sophomore Author Cincinnati Posts:204 Points:1,679,260 Joined:Sep 2005	Message Posted: Oct 9, 2012 7:03:00 AM Ignore FXSpringer01 Report Abuse The Reds seem to be playing with a sense of purpose and determination that wasn't there in 2010. Go Reds.

FXSpringer01 Sophomore Author Cincinnati Posts:204 Points:1,679,260 Joined:Sep 2005	Message Posted: Sep 12, 2012 12:44:41 PM Ignore FXSpringer01 Report Abuse The more that I watch Dusty Baker, the more convinced I become that he has no feel for when to take a starter out. I consistently see starters get into trouble late in games without a reliever warming up. He waits until the game is out of reach before he makes the switch. Bronson Arroyo alone should kick Dusty in the behind for letting him go too long earlier in the year. He kept pitching well until the 7th or 8th then blowing up. Dusty wouldn't have relievers ready until the lead was lost. I guess I got spoiled with Sparky Anderson.
