Pete Rose would.
    Pete Rose would also hit on your underage daughter so let’s move on from the hyperbole

    I'm not. I know it's not the way greed works, but for a change could just leave the damn game alone and worry about drafting, developing, trading and releasing? Leave my game alone!

    I will be disappointed if Farmer is the starting SS next year.

    Scares me. Probably unrecognizable to Mr. Doubleday.

    It depends on which team he had bet on.

    If Nick wants to opt-out, so what. Let him. We need to find players that are willing to step up. It's that simple. There are plenty of players that can do what he does. The Reds job is, find them and sign them. I mean, c'mon. There are always good young players brewing to the top just like he did.

    MLB has six months, 162 game schedule. It’s psychologically impossible for any player to give 100% every game of the season. Even Yogi Berra has admitted to giving up AB every now and then. The best players are the players that can manage their effort over a full season.

    So they go 0-9 and finish the season this so uninspired, you going to tell me Bell is somehow going to spark this team next year with no huge bat in RF, two 3B who cant hit, no idea about a backup catcher once they buy out Barnharts contract( not paying him 7.5 million with a top rookie catcher waiting to start) , and still no legit closer and CF
