Reds should sign Foulke...

to close. I really don't think Bray, or anybody else currently on thr Reds, is ready to close and Foulke is likely very cheap after coming off some bad years in Boston and he knows how to pitch. A 2 year incentive laden deal (with an injury clause) sounds in order. The Reds, once again, are slated to have a horrible bullpen with only...

Majewski
Bray
Coffey
Cormier

...worth anything.

Good idea in theory

...but it's looking like Foulke won't go anywhere except the west coast.

I would submit...

That Cormier is also not worth anything and that Standridge (released to make room for Bubba Crosby) might have been worth more.

Don't mind me...just pitching to contact, that's all...

Plus

Majewski may be a good reliever when he is healthy, but since the Reds did nothing more than have him rest for a couple of weeks, I wouldn't assume that he is healthy. Doc Kremchek has misdiagnosed too many times before for me to trust that surgery isn't in Majewski's future. Either way, though, this bullpen could use a few extra quality arms.
