For the most part, we played those teams close. On paper...our starting pitching does not match up well with any of those teams. But, Bronson, Cueto, Wood and Volquez have all been brilliant at times. And our lineup and defense can match up against anyone. Anything can happen once you're in the playoffs. See the Colorado Rockies, Florida Marlins, and 85 win St. Louis Cardinals from just recent years. Oh yeah, and the 1990 Reds kind of shocked the world.

I hope this city, for once, can be optimistic!

It looks like we'll be playing Philly. They look pretty darn tough, I must admit. However, we've played them really well this year and we might be able to beat them in a short series. For some reason we've stayed on top of Roy "Reds Killer" Oswalt this year. Also, didn't we beat Roy Halladay this year? I could look it up to double check, but I'm short on time. That's 2 wins right there!
