    And some of the Bama/Clemson guys would be bonafide NFL starters, if not stars.

    Well they could definitely beat the '70 Orioles. I mean, can you imagine what kind of shape the original Boog Powell is in now?
    It is on the whole probable that we continually dream, but that consciousness makes such a noise that we do not hear it. Carl Jung.

    The crab cakes outside the ballpark (that you can bring in) are even better.

    David Bell said today that every player on the 60 man roster is in town and on time.

    Evidently that means the two players that tested positive for covid-19 were not in the 60 man player pool

    Interesting, Could one be DD and that’s why he’s not currently on the 60man?

    Hunter Greene was the other surprising omission from the 60 man

    Not really. He is still recovering from Tommy John surgery

    He's 15 months out from Tommy John and was already throwing 102. Most expected him to be on the 60 man to at the very least continue his development with coaches and training staff.

    This hypothesis makes sense to me, but there also weren't any other players on the 60-man roster who haven't played above A ball for us to test it against. There also aren't any comparable prospects since the rest of the Reds best prospects are more advanced but Mike Siani, for example, isn't on the 60-man roster either...

    Greene could be added later. Here's a quote from Nick Krall.

    The Reds placed more emphasis on adding players who could be big league ready this season. For example, 2020 first-round Draft pick Austin Hendrick, who just graduated high school, was not considered. But No. 2 prospect and pitcher Hunter Greene was not ruled out. Greene, the No. 2 overall pick in '17, last pitched for Class A Dayton in ’18.

    “Hunter is coming back from Tommy John [surgery] and is pretty much finished with his rehab and building up,” Krall said. “He’s a guy who we’re trying to figure out how to maximize this year for him. We want to figure out how we’re going to progress him forward. He wasn’t a consideration now, but we have three spots open. We can always add him at a later date if and when someone is ready to be put on the 60-man roster.”

    In other words, "If we're in the race and Greene helps the team, he's being added."

    I did some roll call, and the following names from the 35 at GAB have not been mentioned or pictured yet (that I've seen).

    Bowman
    Bob Steve
    Strop
    Desclafani
    Shafer
    Bud Selig: "I'm the worst commissioner ever"
    Rob Manfred: "Hold my beer"

    The Dayton daily news had a picture of Bob Steve yesterday so he's definitely there.
