I heard this from a reliable source 700 wlw's Willie Cunningham said it was reported by Tracy Jones. If this is true it may be clouding Dusty's judgment and I would begin to question his decision making.

I don't THINK it's true, but we have speculated it...
I've asked around, to people who spend time down there, and nobody seems to be able to confirm it, which tells me that it probably isn't.
Dusty's bio from the Reds.com site says he has a 28 year old daughter from his first marraige named "Natosha". That is the same age as Patterson, who is also 28....

If it came from Cunningham or Jones, i'd discount it as more of the same old WLW crap--much like the horrible Junior "tributes" after he was traded. Balderdash.

I honestly can't think of any better reason why CFP continues to get playing time.
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!
According to the Reds roster, his bio says that he is single.

If true then Dusty has nothing to worry about seeing how much Corey strikes out.

Really I don't have a problem playing Corey at this point in the season, he saves wear and tear on our young pitchers (and the other team's pitchers) and the more we lose the better our standing in the draft order. Colorado won and we lost today, so we've go tthe #6 pick at the moment. Cleveland won too, so the #5 pick is within our grasp.
Oh yeah, Corey is actually Dusty's illegitimate love child.

I don't know... the #2,3,4, and 5 picks haven't signed yet either. The comp pick for Alonso could potentially be the 12th actual pick. I think it's going to be a different kind of draft this year...those comp picks have given the teams a newfound ability to set their own price. It's going to take a load of Boras clients not getting their sky-high demands met to smarten up the draftees. Alvarez and Alonso both are expecting $7-$8mil from the Pirates and Reds when the #1 pick signed for $6mil. I fully expect Alvarez(#2), Hosmer(#3), Alonso(#7), and Crow(#9) to go back to school. :thumbdown

I believe the story goes that Patterson was, at one time, engaged to Baker's daughter.
