    So far we've drafted BJ, Wagner, Janish, and Lewis.

    The same scouting report says he'll probably sign if taken in the first five rounds.

    I might have to leave work early. Could you imagine if the draft looked like Bard/Scherzer, Brett Anderson, Walden and LaPorta?

    I also forgot we are thin on OFs in the system. 2 OFs and one pitcher. Go figure.

    It's a heel turn by Wayne Krivsky after 4 months of playing to the fans.

    He'll rip off his Reds shirt and reveal an "nWo" logo and then proceed to tell all the young Reds fans to screw off. Then he'll cut a promo about how much he hates Cincinnati and the morons that live there.

    Did Krivisky do something to Buckley to upset him, cause this is starting to look like a draft out of spite.

    You all do realize that, after Bruce, we have no realistic starting OF prospects in the system. And Dunn and Kearns are as likely to be wearing another uniform in 3-4 years than they are to be Reds.

    he is a guy with speed, who doesn't project as a corner OF and they are unsure if he will turn into an adequate CF even if he learns to get on base.

    I don't mind the Reed pick. The kid's athletic and hopefully good instruction will turn him into a baseball player. The Reds built a franchise largely around that philosophy not that long ago in cosmic time.
