Volquez is prepared this year

4:33 PM: Oh man how did I miss the fact that he had a gun in his car!

Can't wait to see him blowing away batters again. He even already has a Reds hat on. One thing I noticed I don't like is the pants what on earth are those, and whats with the piece of trash sitting by the shifter.... does this guy just not care about what his car looks like? He should worry more about his image and not be so lazy in the future because things like these pants and the garbage will probably come back and haunt him.

for the sake of getting extra hits on my site I'm going to say this "Edinson Volquez with a gun" but don't worry its going to be small so you probably wont even read it. If you do then congrats on having a very keen eye like myself.

Edinson Volquez finished 4th in NL ROY voting?

Way to go Major League Baseball. You are such a sharp group of guys. Bad enough that some of the people who cover your sport and HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF VOTING ON AWARDS don't even know the rules for what constitutes a "Rookie", but then your crack PR staff sends out the results with THOSE VOTES COUNTED right there in black and white. One would think that the fact that Volquez pitched in 22 games over the last three years would have been the first clue that he wasn't a rookie...

Good Riddance.....

After watching Cincinnati Red's ace pitcher Edinson Volquez toss for the second time this season, I am more than a little relieved that the Reds will be missing this postseason. The Reds are beyond dreadful on the road (7-21 when Volquez isn't pitching) and will not even sniff the wild card for this 2008 baseball season.
