After losing a pair of extra-inning heartbreakers to the Brewers, the Reds packed their Game Boys and took off for St Louis. The Cardinals are currently just a half-game better than the Brewers, so this is some tangentially important baseball the Reds are playing right now. So that’s kinda fun.
Less fun is Homer Bailey starting yet again. Among starters who have tossed more than 80 innings this season, he is the worst in the NL in ERA (6.17), FIP (5.62), and HR/9 (1.96). He is far and away the most loathed current Cincinnati Red, but not by your humble author.
