Reds lose again

After a powerful performance last night, the Reds were beaten tonight on good pitching, and a bullpen collapse. It would appear that the bullpen that carried them through July is weakening a little, and the same can be said, to a lesser extent, of the offense. We have a two-week road trip coming up starting Tuesday that will largely determine how the season will end for us. I continue to hope that the second half of the season can be something to build on, and that this franchise will finally find the pitching to compete for an entire season in '06. They are probably not as far as they appear to be.
