Yea man! Time to get back on a roll!!!

Wood is 2-0 with a 1.93 ERA in three starts this month.

Reds can beat up an opposing bullpen.

Reds middle relief is vulnerable.
Even if the Tribe is down, the sight of Nick Masset warming in the bully is a sign of hope.

aahhh that Joey Votto ain't shit :hide:

by **British_Pharaoh** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:16 pm

I don't like the look of Wood already

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:17 pm

Pretty play.

And they opened the press box window which is akin to lifting the lid off a casket.

Never heard so much bitching and prostate talk as with these miserable wretches.

13 pitches, 9 strikes.

Impressive 1st inning.

by **danwismar** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:32 pm

Is it just me, or does White resemble a young Roger Clemens, both facially a bit, and in his wind-up and delivery to a degree? Maybe also his sort of confident, bulldog demeanor on the mound?

by **statmasta** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:33 pm

Oh please keep Alex White in the majors when Talbot comes back. Send Carrasco down. Please.

Herrmann will go back and Talbot will fill Germano's role initially. That's my bet. Still time for that to shake out though.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:42 pm

Mother effing no.

by **Erie Warrior** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:42 pm

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:46 pm

Hmmmm... doesn't look too confident throwing all out at the moment.

At least it's the finger and not the elbow/shoulder.

Even so, he's not feeling good right now, you can tell.

I can't possibly fathom Talbot (or Carrasco) going to the bullpen.

I just don't think there's any possible way that happens.

We have a strong zts of 1.269

QBH to Qs = 9.34 compared to Cincy at 8.90. Margin is slim. Should be good game.

1,2,6 in order should be a strong wbps close to 98.5t

We'll see.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:47 pm

He looks visibly shaken to me. Like he's afraid to cut it loose. Velocity dropped 3-4mph which may be just nerves.

Are we seeing different radar guns? I'm still seing 94-95.

Did your keyboard have a seizure?

by **statmasta** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:54 pm

Oh come on just swing through a fastball already.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:54 pm

Goddamn Drew Stubbs. 11 pitch AB and draws the walk.

He's back to that but first 4-5 pitches afterward were 91-92mph.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 8:58 pm

Big AB right here. Get outta this kid.

Ah. I must have missed those.

by **bac5665** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:00 pm

Double play ball!!!!
:thud:

Oh.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:04 pm

LaPorta going for the seldom successful 3-7-1 DP there.

by **bac5665** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:06 pm

Then he makes that great grab to end the inning.

Hit a two run homerun and all is forgiven.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:06 pm

Those ~30 pitch innings will take a lot out of ya if ya bunch 'em up.

by **googleeph2** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:09 pm

Still optimistic. Make Wood work.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:09 pm

White's done for the day... Manny did the wave his hand across his neck move.... Looks like Herrmann will finally get some work in after all his trips back and forth.

by **XUDawg** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:11 pm

The Mendoza Line pwns Kearns. Get something done here.

by **shamwow imitator** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:33 pm

Nice catch, Kearns

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:38 pm

Time to put an inning together here.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:43 pm

Nothing being hit hard against Wood tonight..... no-no thru 5 and has faced the minimum.

by **peeker643** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:44 pm

peeker643 wrote:Time to put an inning together here.

Or not.

Not at all.

Anyone hear anything when Grady will be back? Please?

by **bookelly** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:44 pm

Wood has no hit Tribe so far. And made it look easy. This is a far different team without Grady and Pronk.

by **statmasta** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:50 pm

It seems like in the last 3 games we've had like 3 at-bats go deeper than 4 pitches. Everybody's hacking.

Embarrassing.

by **FUDU** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:51 pm

Time to work my magic, and ruin the no no.

by **RedDawg53** » Fri May 20, 2011 9:54 pm

OCab must still have the thought that he is finally an American citizen.

by **RedDawg53** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:02 pm

Lets break up the no-no and get some Wood on those balls.

by **Erie Warrior** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:10 pm

Turd Kearns with the hit

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:19 pm

Choo time..... he's had two horrible ABs against Wood so far.

by **shamwow imitator** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:20 pm

Wheels falling off for Wood

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:21 pm

Time to wield the Axe, Axeman!

by **RedDawg53** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:21 pm

Ahhhh Choooo

by **bac5665** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:26 pm

This is just fun now.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:27 pm

Ugh.... Duncan coming up against a RHP in a key situation..... double ugh!

by **Dnthateonthepronk** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:28 pm

at least its a key situation

by **shamwow imitator** » Fri May 20, 2011 10:28 pm

Nice 4-run rally to tie things up :dingle:
