    Phil Castellini surprised that Opening Day tickets still unsold

    The @Reds have tickets available still for Opening Day, something Phil Castellini said he doesn't ever remember saying at this time of year. He says it's due to the date change after the MLB lockout delayed the start of the season.

    I hope he's not dumb enough to actually believe that.

    Even Mr. Red looks like he’s got other places he’d rather be.

    I love it. This is the best way to tell Bob to sell the team.
    Remember, they only drew 1.5 million last year. I wonder how low it will go.
    [Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob

    Funny thing about tradition, it goes away quickly once you stop treating it with reverence. Start serving Beefaroni for Thanksgiving dinner and see how many people show up.

    This is hilarious, but also sucks because it shows how out of touch reds ownership is. If he is being genuine here, he has absolutely no idea how pissed the fanbase is right now.
    What would you say.....ya do here?

    Weird that he is surprised that fans are aligning their resources with payroll.
    Well, that's what those words mean. He was here. If they don't keep him, he will have been lost/subtracted. I headed out the door today with two shoes on my feet. If I don't return with them, I have lost them. If I do return with them, I haven't added them. ---M2

    Phil Castellini: "So have a little bit of faith in what we're doing with your Cincinnati Reds."

    Never been told "no" before, I'm assuming?

    This organization has to have looked about half a mile to the west and seen those crowds, right? Surely they grasp the urgency. Right?

    In a season wherein their dollar competition goes to the Super Bowl this organization cuts payroll.

    I mean, he's not wrong that the game would be sold out if it was on the original date. However, game #2 would have had 12,000 fans just the same.
