Move Brandon Phillips Back To SS

Mon, 17 Aug 2009 05:41:51 -0500

In the wake of the Alex Gonzalez deal, Redleg Nation thinks it is high time the Reds organization makes the move they should have made the day they traded Felipe Lopez away and move Brandon Phillips back to SS. With Chris Valaika’s bat appearing to peak out at AAA this season, there is not anyone in the organization that appears ready to be of help at SS in the near future. With this season already a lost cause, doesn’t it seem to make sense to see if Phillips can still play the p...

Moyer Better, but Stuck on 249

Wed, 20 May 2009 22:44:22 -0500

Jamie Moyer entered Wednesday night's game looking for that elusive win number 250 for his career. While he put together a respectable outing Moyer still finds himself looking for the milestone victory as the Cincinnati Reds took game two of the three game set by a score of 5-1.Moyer pitched six full innings and allowed nine base hits, leading to three runs (all earned). He allowed only one walk and struck out two. A Ryan Hannigan solo home run in the second inning put the Reds up 2-0 in ...

Back on the winning side

It wasn’t a particularly pretty win, but the Pirates got the job done by defeating the Reds 8-6 tonight at PNC Park to move back above .500 (12-11) and end their four game losing skid. The Bucs struck quickly with a bunch of singles (and a bad hop in front of Brandon Phillips) to jump to [...]

Around the Internet: Spring Training, Abreu, Dunn, Projections, Phillips, and Fast and the Furious

Wed, 11 Mar 2009 19:42:32 -0500

Since I haven't done one of these in a while here it goes.

C. Trent Rosecrans has the Reds spring training roster, mean while Mark Sheldon writes about the prospects that recived invites.

Supposedly the Reds are open to signing a left handed hitter, but that man isn't going to be Dunn. On that same topic Isaac Thorn from CityBeat thinks they should reconsider him. After the report today on Dunn's demands, I suspect they wont.

How about Bobby Abreu? I could deal with it, but please no to Luis Gonzalez.

Want to know about the college pitchers in this years baseball draft? Red Reporter has it covered.

Firenedcollettinow.com reminds me why 'The Fast and The Furious' was an awesome movie, but with a twist.

Projections are worthless in my opinion, but damn they are fun to go back and laugh at. Redsminorleagues.com gives his, and Replacementlevel.com gives some also.

Lastly for you fantasy guys, Crooked Pitch ranks 2nd basemen, which I'm only linking because Brandon Phillips is on the list.

Phillips is pretty good at second base

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 19:05:38 -0500

C. Trent:
Cincinnati Reds veteran Brandon Phillips won the 2008 Fielding Bible Award for second base in an announcement made November 1, 2008, in The Bill James Handbook 2009. This is Phillips' first Fielding Bible Award.
Fielding Bible is the equivalent of the Holy Bible, and this year Brandon Phillips is the equivalent of God.
