I restate my annual opinion that the big top music from the circus should be the only music played over the PA when the Reds take the field or any Red except Votto comes to the plate.

It should be a city ordinance.

This would also work, but leave it to scUM to already own the copyrights...

Why are there not people in the organization that see WTF is going on...It isn't like they are briniging someone in that just has a bad year...

WT is someone that is hitting his career average...and it is terrible...and they lead him off or hit him second in the order...

Then you have a guy homegrown within the organization that understands the value of being patient at the plate, can play the same caliber defense and get on base about 70 pts higher...

It doesn't take a coach that has been around the block, it doesn't take a genious...It takes a 10 yr old to look at the stat book and say why woudl they play this guy over this guy...

Someone tell the Reds the idea of the game is not not make outs...

So frustrating, especially now that the pitching is struggling a little bit...

We are not that far off IMHO...I say it quite a bit, but I am not sure if I have faith in the front office...

I have a feeling they bring in a guy that is nothing more than a mark derosa type player...bring back Agone at SS and keep playing WT in CF...

Do something to get a Holliday, Kemp, etc or a top SS...someone that can OPS around .775 and play defennse...

Votto, Phillips, Bruce, Volquez, Cueto, Bailey, CoCo, are the only guys that should stay...anyone else as long as we get good return we can place someone in their place...

By next year we should have CF, LF, 3B, SS, 1B, 2B that should be ready from within the organization to play at a pretty high level...So if we can bring in an all-star through trade, find a way to get them and build with the young talent we have and them...

I really wish Dustball would hit Dickerson leadoff and Hanigan 2nd so Votto could actually hit with someone on base. Taveras and Hairston 1 & 2 is just a joke. Hairston was actually starting hit the ball very well down in the order and Dusty for some reason felt inclined to move him back to the # 2 hole tonight. That's the Toothpick for ya.
