    XM is reporting Griffey has accepted the trade.

    No news on the return as of yet.

    I think the best way for Junior to put the Brantley thing to rest is to catch a ball when it is hit too him...IMHO, Brantley called it right.

    I am a fan of Junior but I will not be to sad if our OF the rest of this year is Patterson in CF, Bruce in RF and Dunn in LF...I know...Patterson....though I would probably prefer they put Hopper or Hairston out there.

    I have read that from multiple sources. It does not make much sense but that is what they are talking about. More than likely if this deal goes through the White Sox have at least one more deal going through to free up space for Junior to play.

    on the Sox board they are saying the Reds are sending some money along. That IMO, is a good thing.

    Hopper's out for the year. Maybe we can get some games from Hariston until he gets hurt again then maybe Freel will be ready by then.

    Rosenthal is also reporting that Junior has accepted. So far no word on who the Reds get.

    Thanks for all the great memories Griffey. It didn't go as well as everyone wanted but I'd still make that trade 10 times out of 10.

    The deal awaits Griffey's approval, but it'd be for Danny Richar and Nick Masset according to Danny Knobler. The Reds will hopefully be willing to kick in some cash for Junior to approve the deal if necessary.

    Some baseball insider (I missed the start) on 'the herd' was speculating Swisher. Wouldnt' that be something.

    $ 4 million from the Reds for Richar and Masset.

    Par for the course for what has become an embarassment to my home town. They've become the Cincy equivalent to the National Enquirer. Nothing they would do would surprise me anymore.
