    I'm not sold on DJ myself, but it's like you say. You can't make that judgement on the pitchers we have right now. I'll reserve judgment until about this time next season. I mainly have doubts because all of our media people go on about how great he is. They always say that until they don't. You can go right down the line of pitching coaches over the past many years. They were almost always praised for their greatness.

    This is the point. When the Reds had better pitchers, DJ was not an issue.

    The best pitching approach is to have excellent pitchers.

    The problem is aligning payroll to purported resources. DJ can't spin hay into gold.

    Fairchild has some power for a .105 hitter.
