Luckily most fans were smarter than the announcers as they picked Joey Votto by about a 50% margin.
Bruce has the potential to be Vottoesque, but he's too impatient. If he could learn to be more selective at the plate, he would be a consistent .300 hitter. It's up to him, but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen. By the time he learns that, he'll probably be in his 30s and on the downside of his career.

Drew Stubbs uggggghhhhh cementing himself in the top 10 in strikeouts right next to Jay Bruce. Maybe they should both go back to Triple A and learn how to hit.

Luckily one of the worst teams in baseball is coming to town. Maybe it will give some confidence to all the players who can't seem to find their way on base.

But Janish, Phillips, and Stubbs are on a tear so far.

Rolen sucks this year too. I could be wrong, but I think he's done. We need a good replacement at third pretty soon.

Volquez needs to be punched in the face before each start to calm him down.

Nothing like taking the security tabs off 6 $10 t-shirts, putting them in a bag and trying to leave the store with them. His statement from the Reds and the Reds' team statement were both a joke.

We gotta get something going with our pitching staff. I mean come on! We lose three to the Bucs? And offensively we are hot right now. We gotta get something straightened out quick.
