Talk amongst yourselves.
There really isn’t much else to say about Thursday’s game. I will pull a page from my friend Seg Dennison and say just a one word statement:
Carpenter.
And one more…Pujols. (OK, that’s two)
That’s just about all that’s needed. Read my game story on MLB.com and Reds.com for the explanations and details.
I will be taking the first two games of the Reds-Cubs series OFF so no blogging or Twitter posts by me.
In the meantime, feel free to gripe about Thursday’s loss, the 2-5 road trip that was or wax poetic about this weekend’s games against the Cubs. Keep the thread running if you can, just keep it civil.
See you Sunday.

If you see JBruce in the clubhouse, tell him to try hitting everything opposite field until he gets his swing back lol. Once again, I’m not a professional hitting coach, but to me it’s so obvious hes trying to pull everything. He’s my fav Reds player since Larkin, but right now he is KILLING us.
It seems to me like its just not the same swing it was earlier in the year and I can’t possibly be the only one who feels this way…
