Here we go again. Just made it to the game. 4-2 in the 8th. Where is all that offense we had? Four hits? Jumbo looks good, the middle relievers are going to give up a run sometimes. Good teams come back. Brad Penny? He was last in the bigs two years ago, with a 6.71 ERA. His comeback was not stellar either, but it is against the Reds. Lack of hitting preparation, bad hitting situation calls, and no oversight of the hitting fundamentals is killing this team. Why is Negron not playing his natural position of SS? He is outstanding defensively. Here is a ranking--Selected by the Boston Red Sox in the seventh round (No. 223 overall) of the 2006 First-Year Player Draft ... signed by Blair Henry ... attended Cosumnes River College (Sacramento, Calif.), where he hit .361, with 78 runs and 31 steals in 2006 ... acquired by the Reds in exchange for SS Alex Gonzalez and cash, Aug. 14, 2009 ... ranked second among all Reds Minor League batters with 35 stolen bases in 2010 ... rated the best defensive shortstop in the Southern League in Baseball Americas Best Tools issue ... played for the Peoria Saguaros in the Arizona Fall League after the 2010 season ... added to the Reds 40-man roster on Nov. 19, 2010. And his AAA is even better. I am beginning to think they want to lose, or some other agenda. Now we have a 4-3 game, man on and Cozart up, and he grounds out!!!! Way to try to win a game. Rey Navarro, where are you??? Mr. Clutch in AAA. Does that mean he will do it like that in the bigs? No, but he will do it better than Cozart!
