    Things can change a lot in a year.

    Reds Cut Magic Number to 17, from 2009

    No need for concern. The Reds will do just fine in Colorado.

    I'm late to the party on this thread, having not even opened it until tonight. But I just wanted to add that there's a guy who was involved in every Reds game from 1968-1992, and I would've used him for "27"...



    Will Major League Baseball permit us to use Pete for "14"?

    Help stamp out, eliminate, and do away with redundancy.

    Re: Reds' magic number

    Funny folks joked about using #14. I thought this morning, wouldn't it just blow everyone away tonight if the Reds could announce that MLB gave them permission to officially retire that number?
