    They're going out on a limb by thinking that. They should branch out and look at some other prospects...

    Plus he could only lumber around the bases-true story and not pulp fiction. I will leaf it to others to suggest with which team he will land and take root.

    It is because they are saps. He is the apple of their eyes.

    Rumor has it his minions are outside GABP, demanding his return. I fear their efforts will bear no fruit. But you never know: Knock on wood.

    I guess it's for the Reds' best interest to make sure he leaves the organization.

    Better than him riding the pine until he starts moping and being a stick in the mud.

    The question I have is that now that Trees has been cut from the organization, will Mitchell report on PEDs in the minors?





    What? No one said the puns could only be about his last name.
