9/4/24 Astros @ Reds

We’ve stumbled through four…10-1 Reds.

Chas with a leadoff walk.

Altuve grounds into 6U FC

Yordan GIDP

We’ve made it halfway…in only two hours…10-1 Reds.

That’s one of the easiest GIDP’s I’ve seen in a while.

Bunch of defensive changes…Alvarez out, Bregman out…Heyward and Singleton in. Guys moving on the field.

Alvarez, Altuve, Pena & Bregman out

Not that it matters, but current lineup:

Whitcomb 2B
Heyward RF
Diaz DH
Singleton 1B
Caratini C
Dubon SS
Gamel LF
Dezenzo 3B
McCormick CF

Dubón n at SS, and immediately boots one. Another error.

All I want for Christmas is a NEW FUCKING 1ST BASEMAN WHO CAN FIELD AND HIT GOD DAMMIT. I didn’t know how far to go with the all-caps, was that too much?

Walk puts two on

Do we have any position players left to pitch? Salazar I guess?

Let Yainer pitch?

And it’s 11-1

Can we put Arrighetti back in? His arm is still fresh. He’s had time to think about things.

Whitley’s got a little Nuke LaLoosh in him. I wouldn’t be digging in.

Ground ball to 3B, Dezenzo fields it, takes his time, orders a pizza, mixes a cocktail, has a cigarette, whacks off, and finally throws to 1B. Safe, as India scores from 2B.

What a fucking defensive disaster Dezenzo is.

Whitley out, Ort in

Wild pitch puts two more RISP

You left out his contemplating his next career.
