Well what am I supposed to do with my authentic Majewski jersey now?

Here's a hint Gary, get people out.Originally Posted by Hal McCoy in the Dayton Dailey News
“They told me they brought too many guys (pitchers) into camp and that didn’t give me much of an opportunity,” said Majewski. “I didn’t pitch much and that’s why I was frustrated. Same old stuff - I didn’t know exactly what they wanted me to do..."

Hang it in the closet next to the Saarloos jersey?

Emergency toilet paper should you ever run out.
I might have to crack open a celebratory beer today with the news that Majewski is heading to Louisville!

Now you can shift your anger towards some of the other contenders for the bullpen, such as Stanton, Mercker, Lincoln and Burton.
It would appear the bullpen is nearly set: Closer Francisco Cordero, RHP David Weathers, LHP Mike Stanton, LHP Jeremy Affeldt, LHP Kent Mercker, LHP Bill Bray, RHP Todd Coffey, RHP Jared Burton (or RHP Edinson Volquez is they strangely decided to keep Homer Bailey as the No. 5 starters, which shouldn’t happen). And Mike Lincoln, with his 95 miles an hour fastball is hanging in there.
It looks as if the main decisions are whether to keep Mercker or Bray as a third lefthander because Stanton and his $3 million contract are locked in. And the last righthanded spot is between Coffey (perfect all spring), Burton (a struggler and straggler) and Lincoln - out of baseball for three years after TWO Tommy John surgeries, but back throwing harder than ever.
Way to kill the mood....

Yeah, I've been okay with a lot of the roster construction so far, but the bullpen leaves me scratching my head.
It's just so awful, I don't know where to begin. They've done a great job with the rotation I think; I'd really hate to see it undone by the bullpen. We begin year three of Krivsky's failure to properly fix it.

You don't need a reason to crack a beer
Majewski is actually *****ing at the move and blaming the Reds? That is too much. Hey Gary, guess what, this wasn't all based on THIS SPRING. This was also based on you absolutely sucking for the last two years. Now get down to Louisville, work hard and maybe we'll see you back.
For the Reds' sake and for his own, Gary Majewski really needs to be traded. He needs a change of scenery. Maybe he can go somewhere else and become an effective pitcher (and maybe not), but it isn't going to happen for him here.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
I agree 110%. Maybe Chicago or Milwaukee?

No question. He had the deer in the headlights look from the first day. I think the controversy of the trade must have gotten too him. Just my theory. He needs to go somewhere where he is a low key just another guy. Probably not in a pennant race.
As for his complaints, I think 35 pitchers in camp is a lot, but if last year's guys would have pitched better, the team probably wouldn't be turning over every rock to a find a reliever. He just needs to pitch well. It looks like the scattershot approach may pay off. Word is Mike Lincoln is throwing 95 MPH.
