    Well now that the holiday weekend is over maybe we can get back to some discussions. And hopefully we can get a couple of wins in this series, with Roy-O coming back. Surprisingly our starting pitching looks better than the Reds(this may be the first time we have been able to say this for a long time)


    Pitching Probables:

    7-7 -- Dempster(2-5, 6.65) vs. Oswalt (4-4 3.05)

    7-8 -- Haynes (1-8, 5.78) vs Redding (4-8, 4.07)

    7-9 -- Graves (4-8, 4.79) vs. Robertson (7-3 5.15)

    7-10 -- Wilson (5-5, 4.53) vs. Villone (0-0, 2.63)

    I am tired of being a pessimist, we sweep em...and our bullpen gets back on form.

    I say three out of four or a sweep. I think we match up favorably with these guys in this series.

    Not true. Long as they win 3 of 4 I will be happy about our situation. We sit 2 games out of first in a division (and league) where there is not one real dominant team. I think our boys will be just fine.

    Hell yeah I wish we could have won 1 or 2 this past weekend. But the Pirates did everything right and that's baseball.

    I hope Roy Oswalt shuts the Reds down. So we can start winning again. Roy is the key if we want to make the playoffs.

    What? Being a pessimist was the only thing you were optimistic about!

    You just don't know where to look. :)

    Tonight's game is not on FSSW - it's on KNEWS, which comes on Ch77 (The Preview Channel) here in Austin. I think there's only been 1 game this season that was televised in Houston but not Austin. It generally only happens during Astros / Rangers FSSW conflicts.

    Always check both 77 and 54 for the games.

    Awesome. 6-3 good guys. 3 of our runs were unearned and came off of a fielding error. Damn i love the reds for their horrible fielding. :D
