Reddies are on fire!



How about those Reds? I have been a Reds fan all of my life, and this is one of the best starts for us in a long time. We are 23-16, 1st in the NL Central, and have a .590 percentage of winning. We are currently on a streak of 4, and the last 10, we have won 9. Mike Leake is undefeated, 4-0, with an OK ERA of 3.09. The chemistry is there, and Dusty Baker hasn't even brought up the Cuban superstar named Aroldis Chapman. He throws a 100 mph fastball, and apparently is just right under Strasburg as the best pitcher not in the MLB yet. Yesterday Joey Votto, our go to hitter, hit a walk in single into right field giving the Reds a 5-4 victory against the Brewers. It keeps the streak alive for now, and I hope it continues. Savor the sound of "Reds are in 1st place for the NL Central". I hate to say it, but I still don't think it will last. The Cards are just too good. Hey, for right now we can celebrate. I hope they can continue on and at least try for the Wild Card. As for the status of Chapman, he is currently at Triple A, so one more jump, and he will be in the Red's uniform.

Spring Finals start back up again tommorow!
