Sorry for the ancient bump. I was looking for a post someone made a few years ago in which a photoshop was done of Walt sleeping on the beach in a lounger. I couldn't find it and bumped this as it has lots of fun moments. I completely forgot about the whole Jermaine Dye era. I saw another great thread titled Reds searching for RH bat. From 2009. Good times.
I probably should have just said bump with that being what I was doing.

Seriously, what an idiot!
I approve of periodically topping old threads to show how dumb all of us are. All of us.
In my defense, at the time, Arroyo was one of, if not the Reds highest paid player, and the Reds were not contenders at the time. Since that comment was made, the Reds have paid approximately $50M for a 4.5 WAR. Considering the financial restrictions the team was working under at the time, I would not have signed up for $50M for that type of production over this time, so was it really that dumb of a comment?

I've consistently underestimated Arroyo. Probably because I'm guilty of a fairly common mistake -- underestimating durability.
The Pirates got Marlon Byrd for peanuts. Second guessing continues?

I heard that when he hurt his leg he ballooned up to 314 pounds, not that has anything to do with anything, but still damn.
He's an ex Cub
