    Probably right. It was always his reputation. His good year last year may have been his high point. Not sure if that reliever of the year business created any buzz for him, but given the crowd in the pen, he's a guy the Reds should try to parlay into something else if he has any value at all.
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    Agree, I saw him pitch his first game in Dayton after the trade that brought him to the Reds. He pitched well, but I was not impressed worked at about 86-87 on the gun.
    Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.

    I went to this game. Manuel was blooped and bleeped all over the place. Burton got hit solidly.

    By the way.... I don't know if there's a worst spring training park in MLB than the Blue Jays. Seriously, they should talk to Sarasota.
