Bill Hall anywhere in the NL Central is bad news for the Reds.

Well at least Oswalt & Berkman are no longer there, so they won't have all the Reds killers

Re: Bill Hall to sign with Astros
wasn't Keppinger their best or at least most consistent offensive player last year? I'd rather have him than Cairo.

btw if this was a poll you could go ahead and put me in the "scared" column when it comes to Mr. Hall

Re: Bill Hall to sign with Astros
He padded his stats against the Reds in the no pitching era. Most of the Reds killers still in the majors did the same.
