Not surprisingly the Pirates have fell to 3rd in the NLC. I really don't see either the Cards or Pirates catching the Reds. Christ, we have been without our MVP and we're still beating the crap outta everyone.

Healthy, quality starting rotation---check

Top defensive unit---check

Timely hitting---check

RotY Candidate---check

Best bull-pen in MLB---check

I think this is the year Cincinnati takes it all. I would put our 3 man rotation against anyone.

The Reds lead over the Pirates is now at 10 games. With less than 30 games left in the season and the Reds having 6 games against the horrid Astros and a series against the hapless Cubs, I don't think there's a chance that Pittsburgh takes the NLC Pennant.

A thought to ponder, Cincinnati has only lost one series since the All-Star break and before the break we had won 5 of 6. This will be a team to be reckoned with in the post-season.

Sorry, Buccos you did have a hell of a season.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
