Marty is on WLW and is saying it is a great move.
Re: Dunn traded to DBacks
I'm thinking the PTBNLs will be borderline guys. Think Masset/Richar. My guess is Jocketty wants a hungry roster.

That's a whole lotta "ifs" for this deal to make more sense than inking a 4 year deal.
Holy bat-crap. I misread the press release. We traded Dunn AND cash?
I am at a loss for words.

Nah, I think Daugherty would a hard time influencing anyone with an 8 pack of Little Kings in them to take a leak much alone influence someone who actually understands baseball to make a move based on his opinion.
Re: Dunn traded to DBacks
Regarding the official Reds release article, isn't this just a WONDERFUL tribute to Adam Dunn's history with the Reds, which is the only reference to him in the whole thing (except the intro paragraph, of course):
Quote:
Dunn batted .233 with 32 home runs and 74 RBI in 114 games with the Reds.
Disgusting.

They've gone totally bonkers.
Worst trade of my lifetime to be sure.

I didn't even know Pilo Cash was in our organization.
Re: Dunn traded to DBacks
I was horrified by the Kearns trade. I'm not even sure how to describe my emotions after this one.

I wish we could trade that moronic windbag to Arizona for a franken-arm A baller and a PTBNL.
You want to change the "culture" of the ballclub -- start with the old fossil upstairs who berates the players and turns casual fans against the talent ownership wants them to pay money to see.

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

I would expect nothing less from him.
