    The Cincinnati Reds

    After watching all three games versus NYY at the Stadium this weekend, I don't think I have ever seen a professional baseball team such a mess.

    Not just the way they lost yesterday on McCann's bloop, all weekend they made numerous fundamatal, little league, fundamental mistakes.

    Crappy baserunning, vapor lock on the base paths, missing cut off men on throws, making bad throws, a big mess.

    Team was a three game embarrassment.

    dont give up on your Reds just yet Nasher...

    wait til Votto and Phillips get back they are just in a slump without them and Latos is still trying to ease back into it.

    Having Votto out hurts them a lot.

    I was crushing it right before the AS break.
    This past weekend, right after the break, my handicapping was disgraceful.
    Awful

    I understand your position but the Reds have fewer errors than most teams in baseball. They are currently missing their 3 and 4 hole hitters. Playing in maybe the toughest division in baseball. Still 3 or 4 games over 500. As a fan I'm pretty happy with where they're at.

    ^
    I like a lot of their pieces, my point is, they looked horrible all weekend.
    Trust me, if they get healthy, they will make noise, Reds got some stud like pitchers, but this weekend, yeeesh.

    Yeah their problem had always been a lack of leadership in my opinion. That shows up in spots like this weekend. But their talent is at the top of the league when they're healthy

    What's not to like about Latos in this spot.
