2001 and 2002 he was good....
Something tells me 2008 won't be like 2001 or 2002.

The Reds have signed former Cardinals (and Pirates) pitcher Mike Lincoln to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. This will probably be as productive as Kerry Ligtenberg, but without the facial hair stylings."
