2012 MLB Thread (Page 4 of 5)

I wish for you for the Pads to up their game, man.  Being a Cincie fan I know what it's like to be continually disappointed season after season.  The Reds are doing well this year and did well last year, but for a long time they were straight up abysmal.

You never know, Undie.  With the way teams have been fluctuating in ability over the last several years it wouldn't at all surprise me if they were number one this time next year.

Yeah, they split it two and two.  So can I have my thousand Toe Tags back?

EDIT:  Oops, no, Phillies won three of four, didn't they?

Woo-to-tha-mothahfuckin'-hoo!!!  It's been several days since I've checked the NL standings and I'm pleased to see that Cincie has taken back not only the NL central lead, but the NL lead in general.  Keep it up, fellas!  October's right around the corner!

Lon- we're playing again.  1K TTs per game again?

the halos are surging again won 8 of the last nine to pull within 2.5 games of the second wildcard spot little nervous about jarod weaver and his sore shoulder but we'll just have to wait and see what happens. They're hot hot hot right now 15-3 in the last 18 and they swept 3 of the last 4 series with a 3-2 win over detroit today.

Yeah, and I missed it.  No cable TV at the moment and all.  And it's frustrating having to check their website every day.  I would have loved to see that 6-zip shut-out against LA.

Homer Bailey threw a no-hitter last night, striking out 10 batters all the while. Even though the Reds had locked up a spot in the playoffs prior to last nights game. Baileys no-no should give him confidence headed into the post season.  After a big let down last season, as their middle relievers couldn't hold late game leads. The team has since fixed that flaw this year, and are gonna be a team to be reckoned with.

( side note) I was looking at Bailey's career record over the last few yrs and noticed the guy only gets better as the season progresses, and especially in Sept/Oct, when it really counts.

Lon is digging life, I'm sure.

@ Az-- Remember the 69 miracle Mets? It could still happen my friend.

I don't watch the Reds...ever, but they put it on in the middle of the BYU football game last night, very impressive by Homer, very happy for him, first since 1988 also very impressive

Who likes having a second wild card team? I do.

Go Tigers!  Cabrera is doing some work

Sorry Lon.  The Reds came back from a 6-0 deficit to make it 6-4, but couldn't pull it off.
