    Random Thoughts

    The baseball gods have determined that we can have good pitching or good hitting but not both. It's called the Mario Soto Rule.

    Johnny Cueto has dropped from Sidd Finch to staff ace.

    If your family thinks fantasy leagues are weird, they should know that there's one based on umpires.

    I'm drafting Hunter Wendelstadt for the ejections stat.

    Johnny Cueto sounds like a cartoon show with a Spanish boy hero.

    The price for Francisco Cordero was high, but the Reds should have paid twice as much for Bill Hall.

    Then traded him to Japan.

    It's a good thing it wasn't bat day at Wrigley.

    The Cubs' problem is they play in a place named for something you chew up and spit out.

    The next time the Reds are playing the Cubs and a Reds player hits one out, Reds fans should throw Cubs fans onto the field.

    I keep thinking the same thing - and, of course, coming to a theater near you




    Great start to the season on Random Thoughts and maybe just what the doctor ordered! They're 1-0 now!

    Bill Hall makes me wish I understood Voodoo better.
