5/23 Nationals vs Reds: Aces Face Off

How do you tell when you've received reputation points? Does it show who presented them to you?

At the top of this page, under the Reds banner. To the left you will see User CP. Click on that and adrop down menu will appear. Click on the first option titled User Control Panel. That will open a window that shares a chart of the rep you have received and the rep you have given out.

You're really jazzed about that, aren't you?

[RedRage]

Followed quickly by Stanton no doubt. No wait this is a no pressure situation we might actually get to see Salmon or Burton!

[WilyMoROCKS]

So how is everyone feeling about Krivsky at this juncture?

The bloom is definitely off the rose.

Well gang, I think I am off to get LOST. Maybe I have bad vibes today that I just can't sense and my departure will lead to a miraculous comeback (one could help anyway.)

Pretty much becoming the chance at a reverse Mario-Rijo from last night.

it seems like krivsky is all of the worst attributes of the minnesota franchise rolled up into one

I'm over Wayne Krivsky. I am grateful to him for the Phillips, Arroyo and Hamilton acquisitions. I'm neutral about Alex Gonzalez.

Everything else has been pure garbage.

Bad thing is, it's apparent to me that neither he nor Narron are going anywhere for quite some time. Narron's actions in the last two nights (using Stanton for an extended period in a close game, overworking Cooter, sticking with Lohse too long when it was apparent very early that he didn't have it and replacing him with Cold Coffey) do not, in my opinion, appear to be symptomatic of a desperate man.

[WilyMoROCKS]

yep

[redsrbetter]

I agree with that Lebowski.

I think Krivsky looks much worse than he should because of Narron. I have no doubt that this bullpen would be much better if properly managed. Am I the guy who could be a proper manager? No, but I sure could tell you that whatever Narron is doing, it isn't right. There are too many instances where Narron leaves a reliever in too long or puts in a guy who has been hanus for a while in a tight situation. We have lost games because of his inability to manage. Plain and simple.

This makes Krivsky look worse than what he is. He would look like a guy who put together a better bullpen than what it looks like right now if he had a manager who would help him out.

Krivsky's problem is that he does not see that.

[RedRage]

As bad as Hanus is mispelled I have to think you did it on purpose to use the word anus in describing the bullpen.

Yep, that is what I was intending. Honest...

[RedRage]

[redsrbetter]

Reds threatened. Reds failed to come through.

[RedRage]

Same old song and dance.
