One could argue, that the entire division is down, thusly appearing to be 'more competitive'. The Cardinals are definitely a weaker team than last year and the Brewers are barely remaining competitive. The Pirates seem to be the anamoly. I am not sure the Reds are any better than last season, with the exception of their pitching, because their bats are certainly not dominating like 2 years ago.

The Brewers have been replaced by the Buccos, and StL was weak last year too. It wasn't til late in the season and a little luck that got them that championship. Last year the Central took the Wild Card, and if this year was in the same format as last, then it looks like the Central would have it again.

The Central is the only six division team in baseball, and it always has at least two horrible teams. That's still not enough of an excuse to call it the weakest division in baseball. The division has put up a fight the last few years. We're still not the AL East or NL East, but I'd put us above the AL West and AL Central, and possibly the NL West too.

No way, Stubbs just upped his trade value

And last night showed how CoCo was absolutely crap and Chapman can be a closer. Everything appears that the Reds still want him back in the rotation next season. Not sure why, but the Reds make some stellar personel decisions.

The Reds are 13 -2 in their last 15 games, they are on a 6 game win streak, and have the 4th best record in the entire MLB?! A fun time to be a Reds fan!

LOLZ! Can't believe it! Dusty screws Reds again with errant pitching change... Lucky for him, Stubbs wore his Superman shirt under his jersey again!

With all his amazing talents finally showing up, Dusty will be putting Stubbs back in the 1 hole???? I mean this season vs. Colorado, he's ABSOLUTELY dominating - Case in point:


vs. COL 11-AB 1-R 1-H 0-2B 0-3B 0-HR 0-RBI 2-BB 0-HBP 4-SO 0-SB 1-CS .091-AVG
