    Well since Duckworth is pitching Sunday....the absolute best we will do is 2-1....hopefully Roy and Andy only give up a run or 2 each so we have a chance.

    Now that's what I'm talking about! :D

    Actually, I will go with WWW for the Stro's, Oswalt is what? 12-0 against us? Pettite usually holds his own, and even though Duckworth is pitching for you guys, hes up against Harang, who sucks.

    Ausmus falls below the drinking age limit.

    Everret starts crying after his first at bat.

    Garner goes AWOL after Sunday's lose.

    Purpura decides to become the team's interim catcher until further notice.

    Berkman's decides to sit this sorry season out and avoid any damage to his psyche.

    We will lose if the offense continues like this. Clemens and Backe are better than Assmus and everett right now, how pathetic is that?

    Before this season I never heard of the Red's 3rd baseman (Joe Randa) but he's lighting up the league so far.

    If Griffey/Dunn start hitting watch out......

    That's because he was toiling in obscurity in KC...he'll come back down to earth soon

    WWW, take out the angst of getting swept by the Mets on the Reds

    WWW, we own the Reds... easy as that.

    Luke Scott will also hit his first Major League home run this weekend too.

    Wouldn't surprise me, Great American Ball Park is a very hitter friendly stadium, I expect Dunn might knock a few out as well.

    Randa isn't going to hit 50hr's and bat .400 but he could put up much better numbers. He didn't have the quality of hitters around him in KC (Griffey, Dunn....)

    Who said Duckworth is pitching? I have to believe there is still a good chance that Zeke will be called up to make that start Sunday. Maybe I missed an announcement, in which I will be very sad that they went with Duckworth.

    I'm wondering how many times Ensberg will strike out looking tonight.
