It'd be pretty neat to do something good this inning

Scooter Gennett's a pretty good player for a 16th rounder. I'd be real happy if Madrigal plays like him just faster developing.

Swinging 3-0 down 2 in the 8th? O...k

Mound visit to tell Lorenzen slider slider slider slider slider to Avi.

Oops brought in Hughes

Avi hasn't yet hit his home run for the day

Palka swung on 2 pitches outside the strike zone.

What a terrible send.

Absolutely insane.

This coaching staff flat out sucks.  Mind boggling dumb decisions made game after game.

Why either no pinch runner or hold Abreu with his bad foot?

Idiotic.  Not just Renteria thinking on that one, the entire staff is infected.

Just like nobody stopping Engel from making ill-advised throws that always allow trail runners to advance.

Rebuild - be patient!

He should have been pinch run for without a doubt!

No birthday present for you .  J/k happy birthday !

If someone blames the rebuild not working (at some future date) on Renteria and not Hahn...I think some of us might need to change favorite teams until JR’s family is gone from the ownership ranks.

Tank commander Volstad in to close the deal for the Reds

No one deserves 8th inning Chris Volstad on their birthday

Tilson is on the bench not sure if after that anyone else is available . Still may need to PH for the pitcher if the need arises

I don’t think they have anybody left to pinch run

You still have Davidson. I'm fine not running for Abreu, you just don't send him there.

Conspiracy theory...they don’t really want to trade Abreu, so they exacerbate his injuries?

There was no reason to even chance it

Especially with Moncada the next hitter and he's done well the last few games. Makes no sense to me.
