I am not going to lie, after the sweep of the Reds by the Padres I was a little worried that this season was going to come crashing down fairly fast. I mean, from the outside, the Reds are a bunch of no name players (minus Phillips and the pitchers) that are stringing together some solid wins. From the inside you have guys like Votto who should be in first for the batting title with a few more RBI's (which are coming quick) and crazy Adam Rosales that is so excited to get up to bat he almost bats out of turn.
My favorite player currently is still Willy Taveras. I mean we shared some popcorn:
Is it too early to talk about playoffs? I think it might, but I do think if this team stays healthy and continues to pitch decently the Reds may be attempting to make a significant move before the trade deadline. Do we still need a big bat in the lineup? Maybe. For right now, lets look into sweeping the Astros and continuing to win the series.
