@char_cliff @WLWT and that's why winning yesterday was critical....but go ahead and send out "back from Tommy John" to give it a go in a game we really needed to win.

Traffic cone got a workout in the Pirates dugout.
6 Pirates homers the past two days & Pittsburgh takes the series. Pagan gives up four in the 9th. 8-4 Final.
Francona: “With Skenes out there you hate to give them anything early.”

@Reds Six games in and it's the same damn thing. This is not an ownership group that is serious about winning. It never has been, and it never will be. The definition of insanity.
English
@EvilJoeyVotto Once again, the problem with this team is the ownership.
Winning is not a priority of the Castellini group. It never has been, and it never will be. Until the #Reds are led by someone who actually cares about winning, medicority is our ceiling.
English
Remarkably unclutch hitting by the heart of the #Reds order in the 8th right there. Why do we keep playing down to the Pirates?
We look exactly like the same Reds team we've seen for the last decade. Plate discipline, timely hitting...huge problems.
English
Let's see how this #Reds team does during day games. The 2025 Reds were hysterically bad in them,
Especially when it meant to win the series.
Big game today with Skenes on the mound
English
#Reds will be lucky to get 3 hits on Skenes let alone 3 runs. Disaster series. Might be a new season, but this is the same old Reds so far.
English
Second series of the season...already feels like one of those games were gonna look back on in October and say "man we should have won game 2 when we knew Skenes was lurking". #Reds
English
With Skubal going tomorrow..... this is a game we need to win. But, you know, fuck around.. #Reds

@BenitoSaltibalz @__MIKEYMAC__ I’m honestly more worried about the academic portion. Most of these kids aren’t going pro and they need a solid education. Hard to get that if you’re transferring every year.
English
The NCAA has to fix the portal issue. Either limit the number of times a player can portal or figure out a way to compensate the school that did all the work in developing the player.
You want to know why no mid-majors made runs in this year's tourney? They're just farm clubs.
English
@madness_WSU The p5 schools don't want to take the chance and recruit these guys in high school, but they come to a mid-major, pop off, show they can ball, and look who comes crawling to them with a big bag of cash.
It's a disgrace.
English
@madness_WSU Really disappointed. The NCAA has made this process a joke. No such thing as a committment anymore. It's not about the education or the degree, it's all about the money. College sports was better before NIL and the portal.
How will we ever be great with p5s poaching our studs?
English
Has a bright future. Sad to see him go but so happy for him 💯💯

This is a really good one from the state of Indiana. An Indiana All-Star and Class 4A State Champion as a senior at Jeffersonville H.S., Michael Cooper immediately was one of the best guards in the Horizon League as a freshman. Should have a lot of interest in the portal.
English
@free_Freehawk @LRTalksSports It's hard enough for the MM schools to compete with p5 schools. My MM team (Wright State) pushed Virginia very hard a few weeks ago...now our two best guards are leaving, likely being poached by P5 schools.
They don't recruit them until they prove themselves at the MM level.
English
@bschumakerRT Mid majors are just farm clubs now. The days of the George Mason and Wichita State runs are over. Any player worth a lick gets poached away by schools with money.
It's not even the same level of play anymore. The p4 conferences should be in their division at this point.
English
To sum up today for Wright State:
Going portaling: TJ Burch, Michael Cooper
Staying home: Kellen Pickett, Andrea Holden
All others to be determined. Any other Raiders want to share?
English
@JoMichaelMinn7 There would have to be an additional transfer awarded if a coach leaves. Fully agree.
English
@__MIKEYMAC__ No coaches can jump from team to team but players need to be restricted? This gives the players some power over asshole coaches
English
@LRTalksSports That's exactly what my team is dealing with.
English
@__MIKEYMAC__ Not to mention the teams that do well are where all the players are picked from. Getting punished for doing well and having their players be noticed
English
@__MIKEYMAC__ 1 transfer per 4 years but if your coach leaves you get +1
English
@RefObserver17 DJ isn't gonna get to ride off with a final 4?

@AyersRefTracker @DalyDoseOfHoops Just a guess….
TEN/MICH - Ayers, Nixon, Lenox
UCONN/DUKE - Anderson, Reed, Chiazza
That’s my guess
English
I feel like we see Chiazza in DC tomorrow. There was a Big East primary ref for both DC games last night, a hunch this continues tomorrow.
Jaden Daly@DalyDoseOfHoops
Tomorrow’s Elite 8 whistles will be as follows: Jeff Anderson Roger Ayers Tony Chiazza Bart Lenox Greg Nixon Mike Reed My guess: Reed/Lenox/Chiazza in Chicago, Roger/Jeff/Nixon in DC.
