    At one time I had him pegged as a Cy Young Award winner. I missed that one.

    In related news the Reds have also signed 69 year old Jack Billingham to a minor league deal with a spring training invite after watching him eclipse the 50 miles per hour mark on a radar gun at the Golden Sunset Retirement home in Goodyear Arizona.

    I thought I had my calendar wrong and it was April Fool's Day!
    The older I get - the better I was

    and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)

    I miss Raisor

    Can't see much upside or downside as long as he doesn't block someone's chance to advance
