No link, but it's all over twitter.

 

I'll go ahead and make the 2 obvious posts:

 

1) Dusty and Joe, together at last!

2) Hopefully this means the end of this broadcasting career.

So does this mean he spends hours in the locker room telling the players about the days when he played baseball?

And how much better he was than Ryne Sandberg.

The Reds are going to quickly learn to despise the Cubs if they don't already.

I refuse to be excited about this until I see who the Sunday Night Baseball replacement is.

John Hart is a special adviser for the Rangers, right? Why would Morgan need to stop doing SNB?

He should have to give up his ESPN job because it's a conflict of interest.

 

Of course, this is the same ESPN that has Dukie V and Duke grad Jay Bilas covering Duke basketball games.

i bet he'll advise them to find players who are more consistent.

It's a shame that FJM isn't around for this.

three posts in for a sandberg reference? that's about right.

Why not? Morgan's made it very clear he's not fond of Sandberg.
