Dear Mr. Krisvsky,

Thank you for the work you've done so far.  The Reds Nation is finally excited again.

That said, if Jerry Narron isn't going to give the closer job to Todd Coffey, the Reds MUST trade for a closer, and there's no sense waiting until July 31st.  Mr. Krivsky, make a statement that the Reds are for real.  Trade any prospect but Homer Bailey and get Joe Nathan in here from the Twins.  The Twins aren't going anywhere and are on the verge of shipping out Torii Hunter and Shannon Stewert.  Please don't wait, we'll be out of the race by the end of June if we don't add something to the bullpen.  The Reds' fans deserve this, we have been loyal over the last 6 awful, awful years.  

Nathan makes only $3.75 million this year, Castellini would cover that.  While you are at it, get them to throw in Juan Castro too and we can dump QCrack.  Freel can stick to the outfield and Castro provides late defense.

That's it, it's not too much to ask.  Oh, one more thing, get Austin Kearns signed to a long term deal soon, before he costs too much.

Thanks,
