    Best case scenario is Pedro Villarreal style long-man. We have one of those. I'd cut Smith loose, at least off the 40 Man.
    Yeah, if the bullpen is full of Smith-type mop up men next year, we know they are punting on the season.

    Happ is a good example of what the Pirates are doing with their pitching staff. He was a FB pitcher, and struggling. They brought him over, taught him to be a GB pitcher, and he's doing well. I wish the Reds would take a similar philosophy, especially considering GABP.

    Nice try, George. Maybe you should do some research.
    Four NL Pennants to two.

    The Reds were the NL team of the 70's.

    Unfortunately, the '70s were circa forty years ago.

    I don't know what kind of ads some people get here at RedsZone, but right now I've got an ad for flights to Bangalore starting at $797.

    First, is that a good deal? (Seems like it would be.)

    Second, why would I want to go to Bangalore?!
