Reds Tidbits (2011 Season)

[jlb1705]

lots of stuff happening right now with the reds, sounds like frazier and maloney being called up and herrera claimed off waivers, haven't said yet who's being sent down...

Herrera was apparently claimed by the Brewers.

It's looking like Volquez to AAA and DRH being released on the same day. How's that Josh Hamilton trade looking now?

maybe some of you guys who live in the cinci area can clear this up, I read that WLW is reporting that renteria is leaving and Gomes was released, anyone else hear that, or is someone pulling my pants down?

I'm seeing the same stuff on RZ. However, I'm not an imbecile so I don't listen to WLW for news.

 

[Bucknut24]

yea, I dunno how credible WLW is for news stuff like this since well, I don't live anywhere near Cincinnati

This is what The Enquirer's web page (John Fay) has:

OK, here?s what we know: Todd Frazier and left-hander Matt Maloney have been called up from Triple Louisville. Left-hander Daniel Ray Herrera has been claimed on waivers by the Milwaukee Brewers.
We don?t know who is getting sent out. There?s a good chance it?s Jordan Smith and Edinson Volquez.
With Herrera off the roster, the Reds can put either left-hander Dontrelle Willis or right-hander Chad Reineke on the roster.
Should know the corresponding moves shortly ? as soon as the players in question are told.

 

[Bucknut24]

heard that...also just heard Willis to the DL in AAA

 

[jlb1705]

Dontrelle Willis to the minor league DL, per Lance McAllister. If true, these other rumors just got a little more interesting.

plot thickens

Volquez just called into Baker's office. JSmith just came out.

 

[Jaxbuck]

or is someone pulling my pants down?

That's not exactly how the phrase goes....you may have been in Tallahassee too long.

 

[Bucknut24]

i know, but i thought it was funny nonetheless

Funny thing is when I see someone from the panhandle paranoid about getting his pants pulled down I don't think he's joking.

Officially:

Reds Reds



Reds recalled IF Todd Frazier and LHP Matt Maloney, optioned to Louisville RHPs Jordan Smith and Edinson Volquez.

 

[Bucknut24]

sad part is, i understand that, i've had my pants pulled down on number of occasions, and I've done my fair share of pants pulling....i've been living here too long

 

[Bucknut24]

gotta admit, after hearing all the possible things that were potentially happening, im a little disappointed this is all it was...even though Im glad they finally sent Vokie to AAA
