@Spurlock27Mark They have like 3 actual major league players on the roster. I'm not really sure what else Tito can do. Nick Krall is the reason this team sucks. He has no idea how to construct a major league roster. I'm not entirely sure he understands how baseball is played.

Tito has lost me. This team is in shambles. Feels like its tee ball where everyone gets a turn.

What an absolute dog shit team. Dog. Shit.

Elly is not the star he was supposed to be. You have to be able to steal that base in that situation. Absolutely pathetic attempt.

Absolutely terrible steal attempt. My goodness.

How many players can the Reds DFA? They could probably cut half of their 40 man roster without a single organization signing them. It's insane to build a roster full of absolutely awful players

Absolutely embarrassing organization. Nick Krall should have been fired 15 years ago

This organization is dog shit. An absolute embarrassment

This team is flat out pathetic.

@_MattWilkes As someone born in March of 1987, I appreciate "recent" going back to April of 1987.

Most recent Reds to HR in each game of a doubleheader: Nathaniel Lowe, 5/23/26 Joey Votto, 9/14/20 Joey Votto, 8/24/11 Drew Stubbs, 8/31/09 Austin Kearns, 4/19/03 Jon Nunnally, 5/19/98 Kevin Mitchell, 7/2/93 Todd Benzinger, 8/18/89 Nick Esasky, 9/17/87 Kal Daniels, 4/19/87

Nathaniel Lowe is the first Reds hitter to homer in both games of a doubleheader since Joey Votto on September 14, 2020.

@HeyGingersaurus 14th loss by 5+ runs. Almost unfathomable.

#Reds pitchers walk a ton of guys as the team loses by 5+ runs. Feels like we’ve seen this game play out a dozen times already this season. Might even get to see it twice today.

The Reds have lost 14! games by 5+ runs. Tampa Bay has 15 losses of any kind this year. Atlanta has 16. Milwaukee has 18. The Reds are the worst team in baseball by a wide wide margin.

This is an absolute embarrassment This team isn't even competitive

What an embarrassment. The Castellini family is an absolute joke.

This team is embarrassingly awful. Just a dog shit organization

@RedsFan_Brandon They are not very interested in winning. They think they are smarter than the rest of baseball.

Why in the world if you’re the Castellini’s wouldn’t you look at the sustained success of the Brewers, Guardians, and Rays and not want to hire someone from those organizations to run your baseball operations? #Reds

@david_shane I think it's more a symptom that to many people, curiosity isn't the driving force behind getting papers published. A genuinely curious person would want to find the right answer so of course they'd read what they cite. Someone looking to "get published" doesn't really care.

The "I don't have time to actually check citations" could, as I said, already be a symptom of demanding more work than humans (doing a good and careful job) could actually produce.

@Iam_InioluwaJ @MorbidKnowledge It would be very easy not to get caught in that trap.

@MorbidKnowledge Bike theft is wrong, but setting traps to violently beat people for months and filming it like entertainment is disturbing on another level.

A couple in California spent five months intentionally luring bike thieves into their front yard with an unlocked bicycle, beating them with aluminum baseball bats, and posting the videos online. Corey Cornutt, 25, and Savannah Grillot, 29, of Visalia were arrested in January 2020 on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy, in connection with at least four beatings between July and November 2019. Police said the couple planted a bicycle in the front yard unsecured and waited. Once someone tried to steal it, both rushed out and assaulted them with a baseball bat. The videos they posted made the prosecution straightforward. A neighbour told reporters there would be blood on the street the next day after each incident, and had warned the couple: "Maybe it's not the best idea you're kind of bringing people into the neighbourhood that might not be here otherwise." They ignored her and continued. In each case the victims received various non-life-threatening injuries. The couple documented their own crimes in enough detail to guarantee their arrest.

@kylamb8 It's amazing that he thinks that will solve anything. It's just going to make the bottom 50% demand even MORE from the top 1%. He thinks he's buying good will when he will end up generating even more resentment.

How about no, Jeff. Terrible idea.

@RedsInFour So the guy who was the hitting coach during 2023, when the Reds posted a team 98 wRC+, 3rd best of the entire Castellini era, with a team of rookies and journeymen, was fired because McLain, CES, and Friedl were injured and Marte was suspended? #getkralled

If there's one thing I never really understood, it was the mob mentality that took over when all of the blame went on the hitting coach for injuries & dumb suspensions derailing the #Reds' offense in 2024.

Has anyone tweeted about the fact that Joel McKeithan's Chicago White Sox are a top 10 offense in Major League Baseball by OPS, wRC+, and fWAR?

@_MattWilkes @MoEgger That should honestly be enough to get a GM canned mid-season. A competent organization would not allow anyone who had any say in that trade to remain employed any longer.

Ke'Bryan Hayes in 126 plate appearances this season: .144/.198/.229, 14 wRC+ Eric Milton in 131 career plate appearances with the Reds: .179/.212/.286, 20 wRC+
