Re: Your all-time favorite Red?

Faults and all, it's still Pete.

Mario Soto is a close second. I was a pitcher and loved watching him pitch. Of course in the early 80's he was about the only reason to watch the reds!

Re: Your all-time favorite Red?

Chris Sabo was one of my favorites and Bench will always be number 1

My lifelong love affair with the Reds started with #14.

Bench followed closely by Larkin. Rijo is probably my favorite Reds pitcher.

Pete Rose. Hands down. He was/is a very flawed human being but he was a role model inside the white lines.

I'm thinking maybe Tommy Helms. I had to concentrate though.

For me it is Johnny and Davey, followed by Tony and Pete. When I played I was a catcher and a SS,(also a pitcher,but man, 'The Bird' was the shiznit) so I emulated the Big Oak, when behind the plate, and loved the way Davey made everything seem routine.
