Post Season Tickets Printing Begins...

Way to go Walt... at least you're not the idiot Dayton Moore in KC who just committed 17.5 Million into Ervin Santana & Jeremy Guthrie for next year.

Re: Reds sign Emmanuel Burriss

Isn't this the guy that had some epic hitless streak? Or am I thinking of someone else?

Edit

Never mind, that was Eugenio Velez

Depth is depth. All three look serviceable, and Nevin Ashley might even have a bit of upside if things go south for Mes.

Finally we got Stevens back after the Indians stole him away in the Brandon Phillips deal.

Re: Reds sign Emmanuel Burriss

Burriss=Valdez=Patterson=Taveras=Cairo=Harris. This will really help the offense...another Mendoza line hitter.

Ashley might not be that bad of a backup to a backup plan.
