seems to be a baseless rumor jmac..
It's got about as much chance of happening as the Reds getting Johan Santana.:help:Quote:

And we keep going, and going and going.
Tony Armas JR is on the block.... Mr. K should give JimBo a call....
I actually expect Zach Ward to be the starter after Homer to get an extended shot in the rotation.Quote:

I know that they haven't really challenged him yet, but I think that will change soon and excelerate next year.
Where did you hear that?Quote:

Armas and Soriano for Dunn?
I am just throwing it out there to get people's thoughts. I would have to look at some stats to see if I would do it or not.
I know JimBo loves Dunn.
*ducks*
Soriano for Dunn was thrown out at the beginning of the year by Bowden to Dan O who turned it down flat. I want no part of a Soriano rental.Quote:
