2-1 Redlegs

The 2011 Cincinnati Reds can lick my nuts.

The only good thing is, the more they lose, the better the chance that the dog**** coaching staff is gutted.

I would hope this series has shown the front office where this team is now. There's no reason Hernandez isn't switching clubhouses for the game tomorrow night and Jocketty should be on the phone with everyone pursuing Heath Bell to tell them Cordero is available.

Wow, I groaned as soon as Cairo's music played, then he clubbed one.

Yep. Not going to get much out of him, but at least it will be something.

And he will be off the team.

Yep, sell the veterans that we can and make a move for Pence to be ready in 2012.

Which pitcher would the Giants give up for Hernandez?

Which pitcher would the Giants give up for Hernandez?

I have no idea.

 

[vols kick balls]

Bruce hasn't looked terrible today. That's a big improvement.

 

[emainvol]

I have no idea.

I would like Surkamp if he was a year younger.

Take that back, if they would give up Surkamp, I would name Walt the super-trader.

 

[vols kick balls]

Surkamp would be a great get.

 

[emainvol]

Surkamp would be a great get.

I just looked at his numbers for the year, very very good. He has improved almost every category from high A ball. The one's that have slipped are the things you would expect to slip a little for a finesse guy who is starting to pitch to the real deal prospects

 

[emainvol]

Hey, guess who is leaving a pitcher out there entirely too long again?

If you guessed Dusty Baker, you would be correct.

 

[emainvol]

Holy ****ing ****, Dusty is literally about to lose the Reds another game.

 

[emainvol]

I hate to sound like a broken record, but how can anyone in a position of power within the organization not see that Dusty Baker is the biggest problem?

Announcement coming tomorrow. Baker out, Morgan likely in until the end of the season.

Uh oh....

edit for clarification on source: Apparently this guy let it be known that Cozart was getting the call a day or two before it happened.

...Morgan who?

 

[vols kick balls]

...Morgan who?

The only Morgan I know of with a job with the Reds is Joe. Would be a terrible manager.

 

[vols kick balls]

It's probably garbage but who knows.

The Dusty out part wouldn't surprise me.

Me either, but I would hope the Reds would have more sense that to make Joe Morgan the interim manager. I guess in the long run it wouldn't matter anyways.

 

[MaehlMan]

Joe Morgan?!

:lol:

I'm all for it. First, it gets rid of Baker. Further, it would make Joe Morgan finally put up or shut up. He's acted for years like he'd be the greatest manager ever. Here's his chance.
