Sorry, I don't understand how releasing Burton would help keep Lincoln around, or how the two are even related. Maybe I'm missing something.

Let the Reds' brass worry about where they go, minors, DFA, trade, whatever. All I know is that the Reds have some great arms in the organization and it's time for Lincon and Burton to go. Both.

Yesterday Burton didn't have it. Today Lincoln didn't have it. They are not helping right now.

If Nix squares up one of those 96 mph heaters, it may go across the Ohio River.

Obviously I meant Maysonet. Unbelievable with 2 outs that he didn't try to score. Tejada must have hit that ball hard.

Yet the Red manager has guided his team to a winning record, despite these shortcomings. But yeah, he sucks.
Ding, ding, ding, ding! We have a winner!

Hard hit worm burner....Bruce got on it very very quickly to make him change his mind.

Re: 5/26/09 - Reds vs Astros

I think the opinion is that we are winning in spite of Dusty Baker. If a great wonderful manager were here, we'd be tied with the Dodgers for the best record in baseball.
