I have plans this evening that directly abut the trade deadline, so I’m writing this post early. I have no idea if the Pirates have traded for anyone, or if the Reds have gotten rid of anyone, or if nothing at all has happened. The posts underneath this one could say anything. Regardless of what has or has not happened, my opinion on the Reds remains consistent: the Pirates should stop losing to them.
Jeff Locke and Michael Lorenzen are on the mound tonight. I feel relatively sure this will not change. First pitch is at 7:10.
