Fred +1 is on the list too. I'm getting to the park around noon-ish, maybe a little before to stand in line. Anyone who can be there to keep me company and help me hold seats when it opens would be appreciated.
-
Griffey isn't really that good anymore. Hopefully his name (and Seattle) drive up the asking price. Griffey will command more than that, IMO. I don't doubt the Reds will ask for much more. I wouldn't be willing to pay any more, however.
-
As to what I'd givep for Griffey? Not much. Maybe Ascanio and a lower level prospect. Dunn, I'd be willing to pay much more.
-
That all depends on how much he wants to play this year. Right now, he has zero offers on the table. If he wants to play, I think he could be had for under five million. Maybe he doesn't want to play that badly, I don't know.
-
I like Dunn, but waste valuable trading chips acquiring Dunn or Griffey or Bradley. Slide Fukudome to CF, Soriano to RF, and pencil Bonds in at LF. When Bonds needs a day off, use Reed Johnson or Pie. This line-up would be very good. CF Fukudome RF Soriano 1b Lee LF Bonds 3b Ramirez C Soto 2b DeRosa SS Theriot/Cedeno =P~ Bonds likely would cost around 2-3 million on a one-year deal.

Sounds like I missed a good game.

If Eyre is in, Pie could go to Iowa

I'm hoping when Eyre returns, Marquis is DFA with either Marshall or Gallagher stepping into the rotation. -
This one will be over by the time I get home. I'll have to TiVo and watch it delayed. Go Cubs!
-
[expletive] Lee!
-
Ronny! Ronny! Ronny! Ronny!
-
It took a perfect play to get him, but he was beaten by the throw.
-
I was so hoping he'd beat that out.
-
That ball scared me for a sec. And let's get some runs!
-
Wildness could be Zambrano's undoing tonight. He's all over the place.
-
Memo to Carlos: Walks Are Bad...mmmm kay.
-
Damn! No runs. Zambrano is going to have to keep shutting them down.
-
Quiznos flatbread sammies are awesome!
-
Soriano looks horrible in leftfield. Would he look that bad at second?
-
I love it when we get a first inning run! Go Cubs!
-
Forget Griffey. If the Reds are trading outfielders, go for Dunn. Move Fukudome to CF, Soriano to RF, Dunn if LF. I likey!
-
I'm so glad to see Ramirez back. I've been waiting for them to discover the hairline fracture of the hamate bone all week.

5/5 other games

Why are we discussing games that happened on April 5th? -
My mother once told me an maxim about a broken record....I'm not sure why I remembered that just nbow.
-
That ball was six inches off the plate.
-
Jesus Fontenot! Make the [expletive] play.
