Less than one week left for spring training in Florida for the old Red Stockings. Spring training wont be the same, well for me it really wont change since I don't get out of my trailer much as you know, but for real Reds fan that make the pilgrimage to Florida we will see how many will make that same trip to Arizona.
I think even if I had the chance or my Mom gave me an advance for a trip to spring training I think I would rather go and see the "Jerry Springer Show". For me and my family, Jerry is like our MSNBC Keith Oberman, the man you see for the real truth.
Some good new besides the pitching for the Reds: Taveras has a .400 OBP. If he does that for the year the Reds will be in the playoffs. Other good news. Hannigan continues to show that he is deserving of a starting spot on any major league team. Catching has been a week spot for the Reds and now they have two legit major league catchers.
This last week will be big for Keppinger. Could this guy go from potential starter to cut... or traded. Stay tuned. Old MRL will keep his fingers on the buttons. I will play a reporter and report any new second hand just for you.
Big Cuts.. Willy Mo Pena is out in Washington. Thrown out like an old Bush. This five tool player is five time bust of the year. Disappoints more than MRL with Mrs Red Legs. Valentine is out also. This guy was and will always be a bum. Shows how bad Reds catching was the last couple of years.
Will be gone for a couple of days. Will be back for the big game. Thanks again for your interest.
