Hahahaha

[BWcubs21]

well I hope for their sake that it was a minor league deal with nothing more than a promise to give him an invite in ST.

After the Pirates beat him to Macias, he vowed not to let anyone else come betwen him and every out of work 2003-2005 Cub.

How long until they sign Enrique Wilson?

[rocket]

why do the reds always insist on having 3 catchers?

Because they claim annually that Javier Valentin is one of their best bats off the bench, so they keep a third catcher on the roster to enable the manager to PH with Valentin while still keeping a catcher on the bench.

the reds don't play the yankees this year.

 

when NY opens up that new stadium, that poor guy will have no use to anyone.

It was a minor league contract. He's insurance in case one of the catchers goes down.

 

Yeah, that's really funny.

Not taking a swipe at you (more of a swipe at the Reds), but that is so not true it's not even funny.

 

I'll be shocked (and pissed) if we carry 3 catchers this year.

Yeah, that's really funny.

 

 

Whats funny is you think we are all overreacting regarding Dusty Baker, when we all have seen him a hell of alot more than Reds fans have, but keep up that optimism.

FIRE UP THE ENRIQUE SIGNAL

What's funny, whether they have 2, 3 or even a whole team of catchers, the Reds still won't finish higher than third in the NL Central. Edited February 3, 2008 by vance_the_cubs_fan

He hits Pedro well. Dusty will talk him out of retirment.

[sethuel1]

wheeeeeeeeeeeeee

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I wonder if the Reds will sign Tom Goodwin next...

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I think Troy O'Leary is still looking for work too.

This reminds me of when Dusty was hired by the Cubs. Giants' fans posted on the cubs.com forum to warn us, but we wouldn't believe them. Now we're the ones who know better.

Now playing LF for YOUR Cincinnati Reds, Jayyyyyyyyy Bruuuu, wait a minute, that's Todd Hollandsworth.

Hey everyone. New to the board here. I figured this is as good a topic as any to introduce myself considering my sn. In case anyone cares, my buddy once took foul ball to the chest off the bat of the great Paul Bako. This is the origin of my screen name.

Welcome to the board. Check the newbie thread in Social for guidlines.

 

 

And funny story.

[AlwaysaCub]

Considering the player Bako was in 2003, I am absolutely shocked that he still has a job 5 years later. Apparently people don't pay attention.

How much could that have possibly hurt?
