When I saw that the Reds were taking months to sign Jerry Hairston I was scared to death that they were going to give him a multi-year deal worth $20 million or something. I mean after all we did just give Willy Taveras $6.25 million for what ever he does. Anyways Mark Sheldon is reporting...

Homer Bailey is a total mess and this guy proves it to you. Driveline Mechanics just posted a pretty brutal break down of the mechanics of Bailey. He even goes as far to say "Homer Bailey is a textbook example of how not to throw a baseball" Tempo: Bailey is 21 frames from...
Encarnacion tendered, Belisle, Majewski not

No real surprise on Edwin getting tendered a contract Walt seems to be high on the guy from the sound of interviews. Majewski sucks, but Belisle was a 50/50 thing in most peoples eyes. I think he can be a decent pitcher if he goes to the NL West. Maybe the Dodgers give him a look,...

Can they? The heck if I know, but if you trust the people who make a living being right on these types of things the odds are a big whopping NO. I was browsing BetUS.com, since it's almost that time of year for me to rack in the cash, and apparently they are not very high on the...

John Fay: Right-hander David Weathers accepted arbitration. That means he goes on the 40-man roster. With the year he had last year, my guess is he'll get between $3 and $4 million in arbitration. I was hoping he would not take it so the Reds would get the extra pick. How un-David...

Not much of a surprise considering David Weathers is a type B free agent meaning they will get a supplemental draft pick if he signs else where. Of course the other possibilities are that they either sign him to a new deal, or he goes to the arbitrator and gets a 1 year deal at what...

Straight from Walt Jocketty's mouth via John Fay: "We were close," he said. "I thought we had a shot. Obviously, it didn't happen." I can't make up my mind if Coco Crisp would have been a good addition or not. Rumors of him being a clubhouse cancer,...

Not really a surprise, but worth mentioning. I honestly think he should have won it because he is cute and doesn't have a terrible mustache like Geovanny Soto. ESPN: Soto, the steady catcher who helped the Cubs win the NL Central title, got 31 of 32 first-place votes. The other...
