    Is Yorman already on the 40 man roster?

    Yes, he was added last offseason.

    I thought there was only 3 open spots.
    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

    Has Schumaker been added yet? If not then it was at 36.

    I haven't kept up on the count, but it's possible that Shumaker's not officially signed yet (has he had his physical?). I assume more moves will be made at some point, as it is.

    Edit: I see KLW beat me to the punch.

    ah, ok, that might explain it.

    I've never known what the Reds see in LaMarre.

    I'll be shocked if he has half the career of Duane Walker or Paul Householder.

    At this point I don't know what they see in Duran
    99% of all numbers only tell 33% of the story so when looking at the numbers remember that numbers is plural...

    I don't know, he can play a legit CF, also the corners. Has a good OBP, doesn't strike out much. Has some untapped pop in his bat.

    If he's never more than a 4/5th OF there is value in that, and something the Reds could always use more of.(developing there own bench bats) Might never be a star, but the team could use more guys like him, and less of the low OBP high K, guys they have had.

    I wish. Maybe he's turned a corner recently, but he seems like he just doesn't have the coordination to be a MLB player.

    The Reds have had worse defensive 5th OFers in the past than LaMarre and with less offensive potential. The key with LeMarre is to be happy with that and not expect a 10-year starter.

    Congrats to our friend, Tucker Barnhart! Look forward to seeing him at Samp's Hack Shack in Brownsburg. Hardworker, great guy!

    There are at least three guys occupying roster spots right now that I'd remove before LeMarre.
