The Grumpy Reds Fan is still grumpy after the Reds have given it all they've had, but lost 4 straight since returning from the all star break, while Walt Jocketty continues to... jockey... around with potential trade partners.
Sure they got swept in New York, including the a walk off error in game three on a pop fly that as many as 3 Reds defenders could have caught with ease...
And sure, they looked over matched in every aspect of the game last night in the opener of 3 against the division leading Brewers...
But let's look at the big picture: the Reds are still only 3.5 games out of first with two more this week left against the team currently leading. They have Homer Bailey going tonight against a kid making his 3rd start of the year. The Reds are due to collect some hits and put together some solid games, and tonight seems like a great place to start.
Prediction: Reds win tonight and tomorrow and leave town trailing the Brewers by 1.5 games.
