He needs to be here now, but doubt that is going to happen. Maybe once the International League season ends for them after Sep 22.

Seems if they were leaving Spiers on the mound to get his brains beat in they would have at least given him a dry uniform shirt. Dude's top was soaked.
Definitely took one for the team again. Would say that it is good to get pitchers like him a chance this year to evaluate them, so the FO can decide to move on next year, but this is the Reds we're talking about. They will keep him around to be their next John Reidling to call on from the minors.
Nick Krall is quoted in the Cincinnati Enquirer saying that David Bell has done a "solid job" this year. Not once, but twice. Get both of these ass clowns out of here. They are killing this team. Fire the manager like the White Sox already have done this year. They both need to get real and stop holding out on false hopes this team gets to the postseason. They are delusional.

Reds sign Rosario, not in the lineup today and was available off the bench last night. Did not get in when Bell pulled everyone else from the game. Already down 3-0 in the bottom of the 1st. George Springer has been awful all year. Reds come to town and he's back to his old form. Please end this nightmare now by firing Bell & Krall. Reds fans deserve so much better than this BS on a night-to-night basis. Suffered through decades of mediocrity and no end in sight.

Votto officially retiring. He needs to be brought back to the organization in some form as a hitting coach/instructor at the least.
Glad he did something to make up for that awful error after dismal throw this weekend. Marte needs to prove he can do it against competent MLB pitching staffs. So far, his best offensive games have come vs two teams worse than the Reds with the Marlins & Blue Jays. Not much different than facing a good AAA pitching staff.
Even though he wasn't in the Reds organization anymore, still sad to know that his career is officially over. Hopefully he does have some role in the franchise and sticks around.
Yes, it is but so is how the Reds wasted his career when it comes to winning nothing with one of the best players to wear the uniform.
I'm sick of the Reds ownership. Worst owner in the history of the team.
EDLC now with 22 home runs, 60 stolen bases, hitting .262 and only 22 years old. The guy's going to be one of the all-time greats when it's all said and done.
Sources: Reds to sign former Red Sox 1B Smith
First baseman Dominic Smith is signing with the Cincinnati Reds after being released earlier this week by the Boston Red Sox, sources told ESPN.
Another retread to ride the bench. Guess they will crack Smith up with how hard of contact he makes like Ty France. Fraley injured now. Bell should be happy that he doesn't have to play him now and can find more ABs for Fairchild & Benson. Still no Rece Hinds. What a joke!Sources: Reds to sign former Red Sox 1B Smith

White Sox fired their manager already, Mariners just let Scott Servais go. David Bell continues on as Reds manager because he is doing a 'solid job'. Taking a series against the sorry Blue Jays doesn't change anything about how I feel in regards to the current state of the Reds. They have it all to prove. Every time they get on the brink of about to go on a run, they fall apart once they sniff the .500 mark.
Fifth player since 1901 to have 20 homers and 60 steals in the same season.
Rece Hinds had a great week with the Reds. But tonight he is 0 for 3 with two strikeouts with the Bats and is currently hitting .205
I don't read too much into that. He was hitting .216 before the call-up and went on to win the NL Player of the Week. Hinds is one of the organization's top 15 prospects so it isn't like he is some minor league journeyman who just got lucky. 23 HR & 98 RBIs last year, that power needs to be in GABP. I wouldn't doubt the dude has gotten complacent in an organization that shows they do not value him. I've heard Welsh say before in games this happens to prospects left in the minors too long. Besides, what are the guys ahead of him like Benson and all of these rejects they are signing hitting that aren't going to be apart of the future to have a roster spot above Rece? Don't need anymore half-assed 1B.
Hinds did nothing with Cincinnati to warrant the demotion to begin with. If you are going to build for the future, then do it. Hell, if not Hinds they go out and trade for Joey Wiemer and he gets a cup of coffee. Right back down to Louisville. You are never going to know what these guys are capable of doing by stashing them in AAA. I would be very surprised if Domonic Smith and Ty France are in this organization next season. Rosario might be, but he isn't a reject yet.
