there are other reds fans on this board, cool. i think the reds finally might be heading in the right direction after linder is now gone and o'brien got canned. was there a worse majority owner than carl he was terrible. i think this castelloni or how ever you spell it will turn the team around, but it is going to take a couple of years. he didn't take control of the team early enough to sign any good players so i think the reds will be very average this year at best. we need pitching help in the worst way and we really didn't get any this year. we better score 8 runs a game or we won't be 500.

I don't know if there's enough pitching anywhere to overcome that ballpark.

I was once a Reds fan when I was younger but not so much now. I figured out that I only liked the Reds because I liked the color Red and that was no reason to torture myself trying to pull for them.

yep that ballfield is small. a couple of years ago against the bluejays i watched adam dunn knock one out on the street. dunn and griffey really don't even have to try.

They're my dad's team, so I kinda pay attention to/like them a little myself.

I hate the reds, but being a cubs fan, I think you will understand.

Dunn and Willy Mo will also combine for about 400 Ks if WMP plays every day.

I'm a Reds fan but haven't kept up with baseball in a few years. Therefore, I won't post anymore on this thread but will read with great interest as new posts come in. I just wanted you to know there are NINE of us Reds fans out here, thank you very much.

The reds shut out the red sucks today 4-0 i think. Arroyo pitched 7 shut out innings and from what i saw of the game he looked pretty sharp. I think this new management is gona do the reds a lot of good.
