It's amazing how the team can look so bad in getting swept 4 games by the NY Mets, then turn around and dominate the defending champion Giants for a 3 game sweep of their own. Just maddening inconsistency from this team.
And J-Rod, you're right, the schedule looks pretty favorable the rest of the way, so I won't count the Reds out just yet. Here's what their next 4 weeks look like:
Astros - 3 games
Cubs - 3
Rockies - 4
Padres - 3
Nationals - 6
Pirates - 3
Marlins - 3
The only team on that list currently above .500 is Pittsburgh, meaning Cincy plays 22 of the next 25 against teams with losing records. If the Reds are going to make a move to get back in the race, they've got to make it happen over the next 4 weeks. Otherwise, it'll be time to look toward 2012.
