“Fuck yeah, Espi!”
– Brady Singer
– all of r/reds
Man Espy is an underrated player on this team. His ability to not strike out and overall d is something you can’t diminish
Brady singer is good man
CES just reminded me, he has like a 38% first pitch swing rate.
How has CES not gotten a red light yet
They could never make me hate you, Espinal
Espinal is my new favorite Red
I wonder when all the teams will be ordered to take down their “42” signs?
Viva Espinal!!
espinal rules
Ought to give the umps props when they do well, that was a great call
Espinal could be on the team for years and I would be so okay with that
How many teams has Tommy Pham played for now good grief
### Double
Tommy Pham doubles (2) on a ground ball to left fielder Gavin Lux. Jack Suwinski scores.
Pitch from Brady Singer: Sinker @ 91.9 mph
Top 5 – 5-1
Reds
I can’t stand Tommy Pham but man he can still play, we could’ve used him on this team
That’s the first time I’ve ever heard “Tommy Pham” and “quiet leadership” used in the same sentence 😂
I don’t see why you shouldn’t be given credit for the steal on a wild pitch if you take off before the pitch is thrown. Who’s to say you didn’t induce the error because of your aggressiveness?
# HOME RUN!
Adam Frazier homers (1) on a fly ball to right field. Tommy Pham scores.
Pitch from Brady Singer: Slider @ 81.5 mph
Hit by Adam Frazier: Launched 95.5 mph at 29.0° for a total distance of 347.0 ft
Top 5 – 5-3
Reds
Fuck Tommy Pham and his “just here to get my stats up” ass
Well fuck
Come on, buckledown. There is no wiggle room to give up a 5 run lead to the Pirates in the homestand opener.

Espinal doing it again
I’m worried
Muchas gracias Espinal
Why is fanduel on Amazon not showing it?
