    Re: Terry Francona

    The Cincinnati Reds are hiring Terry Francona as their manager, sources tell ESPN. He will come out of retirement one year after stepping away from Cleveland and will take over a young, talented Reds team. @Feinsand was first on the news.

    My first choice if he was ready to come back. Rather exciting news.

    This also explains the timing of Bell’s firing.

    Honestly, I like it. It makes me think back to the Dusty hire and how guys like that probably has no time for the Reds typical “business as usual” nonsense.

    Now build a better team.

    Hopefully that’s the case.

    My pessimism is at an all time high. Hopefully this is a good sign.

    I have a hard time believe Francona comes back without some assurances on this.

    Get him some pieces. He’s not some magic elixir. But I really, really like this.

    That’s about as big as they could have. No bad vibes there.
