Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
Reds are working to re-sign him. Phillies and Dodgers interested. He is seeking a 2-year deal. The Giants are in serious discussions with him....This rumor was last updated on 10:59 PM - Nov 24, 06. The source of this rumor was San Francisco Chronicle.

Re: Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
I guess I wouldn't be totally opposed to having him back IF (a VERY big IF) it's one year deal (or one year with a team option) and for a modest amount of money.
If he wants the moon I'd say adios, thanks for the efforts and enjoy hanging out with Richie A in San Fran.

Re: Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
For me it depends on the cost of Weathers and the opportunity cost of who the Reds won't sign if Weathers is brought on board. If there are few realistic options for the Reds, Weathers isn't a bad signing. The guy was one of the few bright spots in the bullpen, notwithstanding the fact that he was overused. At points, he was the one holding the bullpen together, albeit with denture cream borrowed from the lockers of Mercker and Guardado. If the choice is between Weathers or more of Ryan Franklin types, I'll even try not to wince when I hear the contract terms.

Re: Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
I would rather have the draft picks.

Re: Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
I would like the Draft picks as well. That could be a smart way to spend money by loading up in the Draft to build up the Farm system.

Re: Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
I'd like to get the draft picks AND spend money to fix the MLB team. Great teams (Cards, Red Sox) do both.

Re: Bout To Get Stormy In Cincy Yet Again
My thoughts exactly...isn't there already a thread about this someplace else?

And if he does this we DO NOT get SF's first round pick. (I think)
