My jaw has yet to return to it's normal position. This is so unexpected.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
I would like to think that Cueto and Volquez, at the least, have shown just how valuable they are and will not be dealt.
I wonder now about them dealing Adam, though...
Don't like to see the organization undergo another upheaval -- let's see if Jocketty wants to bring in a new set of advisors, scouting directors, etc..... if so, it'll feel to me like they're just not gaining any traction toward sustainable success.
Well at least we wont have to worry about an infusion of those sabermatronics things just yet.
"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
Unbelievable.
No way that Bob woke up and decided now was the time to fire Wayne, he had to have had it in mind for a long time, should have just done it over the offseason when Walt became available.
Comforting I suppose that dysfunction will continue to be a Reds tradition.
Go Gators!
No way. This is crazy.
Yeah, its a curious move.
Lots of valleys and peaks in the curve, but its general trend was up.
Has a Bill Bergesch to Murray Cook feel to it.
She used to wake me up with coffee ever morning
This is very Steinbrenner-ish of Cast and the Reds. Not sure if I like it or not- it smacks a bit of over-reaction at this point in the season.
I had heard through the grapevine that there is "no way in the world" that Jocketty wanted to be GM, and he was very happy with the position he was in. Guess that was wrong!
sorry we're boring
