    Kullman is one of the candidates according to RC.
    School's out. What did you expect?

    He says they knew they were firing him on friday, but that was a day for celebration.

    He seems to me to be a pretty straight shooter.

    He can keep DanO around as a "Speaking Advisor." It can be an honorary title.

    700 cut the Q&A off for freakin' traffic.
    I disagree, not WJC by any stretch, but I think he is honest.

    Narron will stay:

    "Absolutely" was an emphatic replay by BCass.

    Also said there would be other changes.

    Jerry Narron and John Allen will "absolutely" keep their jobs.

    I'm liking Castellini more and more each day. By the time the season rolls around I should be back on board the Reds wagon and all my bitterness from the past 2 years might be washed away.

    He prefers a GM with previous experience.

    Memo to all potential Reds candidates for GM - Expect this question -

    What do you think of Lou Pinella?
    Some people play baseball. Baseball plays Jay Bruce.

    He's a no BS guy that's for sure. If you ask a question you are going to get an answer, probably a blunt one. I like it though.

    RCast says he isn't going to meddle in operations. They'll hire a GM and he'll be in charge of evaluation.

    You'll love this.

    "We're gonna hire a general manager and HE will assess HIS personnel." Guess that rules out Kim Ng.

    Definitely room for sabermetrics...Says Castellini.

    He says there's a need for it.

    I love this man.

    BCass said he believes in SABRmetrics and they have budgeted for it, but won't let it take over. "There is definately a need for it."

    I know im late but damn im starting to get excited about this new owner. Accountability, I love it.
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.
