Saw Reds caravan in Parkersburg. A few things Walt said that I found interesting.
1. Club talked to Theriot but wanted someone who could play shortstop frankly better that Theriot could.
2. Tabled contract extension talks with BP to concentrate on putting this years club together. Left me with the impression that an extension is less than 50/50 at best.
3. Would love to add Oswalt but financially couldn't afford him. (Phil Castellini said if the revenue/ attendance increases the team will increase payroll.)
With the effort the front office has made I would have to believe tha is true.
