To misquote John Glenn’s character in The Right Stuff, we need to be forthright, magnanimous, and gracious concerning our recent series with the Stupid Cubs: We lost that series. We lost that series and, with it, a giant opportunity to make up some room in the division race which it’s insane hope we will even be a position to eye the wild card race.

At this point I insert the following tweet from my distinguished Redleg Nation colleague Nick Kirby:

You can call me a nut job all you want, but I’ll keep preaching that the Reds just need to hang within 5 back of the wild card until August 22nd to give themselves a chance to make a run with a favorable schedule down the stretch.
