Re: Q&A: CJ Nitkowski and Jeff Pearlman
That was a good read...I have emailed back and forth with CJ before and he is always fun.
I also read a couple more articles so thanks for helping me kill my day! One was the article with Phil Nevin who is the manager of the Toledo Mudhens...so I go digging a bit on Phil and do you know WikiPedia does not have his time in Cincy listed in his career notes? Seriously...I hate WikiPedia and now yo know why! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Nevin

Re: Q&A: CJ Nitkowski and Jeff Pearlman
CJ Nitkowski pitched in the very first game I ever attended in 1998. He was with Houston at the time...can't remember if he started or came in in relief. I can, however, tell you that Mike Remlinger started for the Reds. Craig Biggio and Barry Larkin hit homeruns in an (I want to say) 8-1 Reds win.
June of 1998. For some reason, CJ Nitkowski will always hold a small piece of my sporting heart.

Re: Q&A: CJ Nitkowski and Jeff Pearlman
I think Bowden tried to trade for him about 800 times, but no deal was ever consummated.

Re: Q&A: CJ Nitkowski and Jeff Pearlman
I thought the Reds and Padres had a deal in place, but, Nevin nixed the trade?

Re: Q&A: CJ Nitkowski and Jeff Pearlman
It was Griffey for Nevin, and Linder nixed it, I believe.
