They could have Lyle Overbay for the prorated minimum. Improves the bench, and gives a reasonable bat to plug in for the occasional Votto day off (and the rest of his DL stint).

It would have cost some legit prospects for Span/Pierre/Victorino/DeJesus, and I still may have done it, but improving your team doesn't have to be expensive. It's as simple as finding something better than what you currently have. That's on Jocketty.

Constantly using players in the wrong spots is on Dusty. Ondrusek had no business in this game. You have Broxton. Use him.
