Well the Reds pull one out of their collective butts on Sunday, meaning they split a 6-game homestand with the Dodgers and Padres at 3-3. I was hoping for 4-2, but as bad as they are playing right now they're lucky it wasn't worse.

Considering how poorly the Reds are doing everything right now (pitching, hitting, defense), I'm amazed they are only 8-11. They are very fortunate to be where they are.

I have to think that the Reds will start hitting a little better. I know that their defense has been decent and the pitching can not win these kind of games when the score is 5-1 it goes to the offense to bring a few runs over to make the game respectable. I think that if they can get Stubbs out of this funk and Votto starts batting the same way that he did last year, then they can turn it around. I saw that Stubbs has been 3-35 in the past little bit...... Bruce is starting to hit a little better, he had 3 hits in 4 at bats yesterday.
