FWIW, I am hearing that Bob Castellini is set to discuss with Selig the possibility of bringing Pete Rose back into the Reds' organization in some aspect before the end of the year. Reportedly, Cast is looking into what it would take to get Rose reinstated.
I think we all knew it was only a matter of time until this rumor would surface.
My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
I heard something along those lines as well....not sure if there's anything to it or not...
I guess time will tell
I hope Bud sticks too his guns...Rose = cancer.

i still think mlb should let him rove around the minors talking to young players about how to hit, play and not gamble or do the bad things that can happen
and all that
Problem is, Rose believes he was reformed over the several years he lied to his friends, fans, many supporters and to himself.Originally Posted by NewEraReds
Rose, even in discussing his sons situation with roids shows he has no concept of what is right or wrong and he cannot preach a message he does not practice (oh man I wish preachers would read this!).
Okay, I am off my soapbox.

Castellini can ask but I don't see any way Selig would ever let Rose be involved with a baseball team again.
Stupid idea.
Cast would instantly become the worst owner in Cincinnati history if brings Pete back in any fashion. The Reds would become a complete joke.
Not as big a joke as baseball saying his Hall of Fame eligibility is going to expire when he was never eligible to begin with...
Pete has no business anywhere near the operations of any MLB club, period. He hasn't reformed himself in the least, and the Reds don't need the dark cloud that Rose would bring along hovering over the organization.
I disagree. Although I don't personally want him back just yet, there are plenty of fans, mostly older than us, who do. I'd be surprised if Marge didn't do some lobbying in that regard before she sold the controlling shares.
"Welcome Back Pete Rose" night would be a sellout for sure.
Well, I'm 61 -- I remember all of Pete's career. And, I definitely do not want him back in the organization. I don't see anything positive that he could bring, that would not be out-weighed by the negative.
Or, he could become the most revered owner in Cincinnati history to the fans (at least the casual fans) in the city.

I wouldn't bet against this rumor. Odds are it may happen.
(Sorry, I couldn't resist).
I think it's a bad idea, but I never believed Pete in the first place, so I'm not in the majority of Reds fans.
Living in the past = Bad idea
Go Gators!
