I can't believe I'm the one bringing this up, but...

I'd rather just go with my main man, Laynce Nix...

Well the Reds aren't going to make a move until June at the earliest anyways, so Nix is going to get plenty of ABs in LF.

[Chip R]

could you imagine Barry hitting in between Votto and Bruce? Bonds OBP ain't to shabby.

No because I can't imagine Dusty batting 3 lefties in a row even if they were Williams, Ruth and Jr. in their primes.

Now you are talking!! smartest post of this topic.I mean who would want a 50 year old steroid user that can't play no more.

Nix in left and Rosales at third!!!

He would make us yearn for the halcyon days of Dickerson and Hairston. He wil make Dunn look like a Gold Glover. Anything hit 3 feet to the right or left of him is going to the wall. Forget about him running in to make diving catches. This isn't the Bonds of 20 years ago, 10 years ago or 5 years ago.

Bonds to first, Votto to LF.

Part of me would LOVE to find out if he can still hit a baseball.

Considering some of the characters currently getting ABs for the Redlegs, they certainly wouldn't be wasted on giving Bonds a run.

Yeah I to wonder sometimes if he can still hit the ball or not and maybe he can what do I know.I would like to find out but I don't want to find out with him in a Reds uniform.I would'nt mind to see him play for the reds back in the day when he played for the Bucs but right now its like a circus with him and were ever he goes.He would be a major distraction for the reds imo!

Don't know if it's a good idea on the field but I bet it would get those weekday attendance numbers up.

Sideshows usually do.

I have our solution to the LF problem:





Ears. Wouldn't downgrade the defense, and would certainly upgrade the offense.

8 million a year..pass

As for Bonds, he was on the Giants booth the other night, he has not retired, he's taking swings..but he also said he could not play if asked to today.

The ship has sailed, he's in Rickey Henderson territory now, reluctant ex-ballplayer.

Layne Nix is showing some pop...he's an in house option, I dont' see why we'd need to go somewhere else :shrug:

[Scrap Irony]

It'd be fun to see, yet likely extremely painful as well. What would be more fun is seeing Bonds play a couple weeks in AAA. This those half-day bus rides would be okay with Senior Swat?

I honestly don't think he could provide all that much more offense than Jerry Hairston Jr. at this point... His career has been a straight downhill slide.

[BuckeyeRedleg]

Dickerson is better than Kearns and makes 5% as much.

Dickerson will be fine folks. Maybe he should be platooning with Gomes in LF with Nix gettiing some starts in CF (until he cools off).

Kearns? If he can be had cheaply, I'd take him. Kearns is currently hitting .240/.397/.520 - .917. He's OPSing .917 despite his .250 BABIP. Kearns is also a great defender. Again, if he can be had for very little, I'd love to see Walt pick him up.
