    Rule V Draft?

    Think we'll take a shot at anyone?

    Dan Uggla was a rule 5er.

    I suppose that depends heavily upon who is available to be taken.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    Changing the subject but staying on the title...Do we have anyone that will be left unprotected that will likely go?

    What minor leaguers have to be added to the 40 this winter? Thankfully, Homer isn't on the list so he doesn't take up a slot until probably June or July.

    I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.

    Doc Scott usually does an excellent breakdown every year of what Reds are Rule V Draft eligible and who he thinks the Reds should go after.

    Stay tuned for that.

    I second that. Doc Scott's rule V profiles are great!

    First Guess at who may go (after Reds make some moves on 40 Man).

    William Bergolla, Rey Olmedo, Jason Standridge and Steve Kelly.

    Man, I'm already way behind on the minor-league reports. But I'll do a little research between now and the draft, don't you worry.

    Of course, it does depend on whose available, but I think we will. I was dismayed last year when we took no one, either in the major or the minor league draft.
