Around SBN: Steve McNair Dead - Former NFL QB Shot and Killed


D'Angelo Jimenez a Nat

Jim Bowden's continuing effort to transform the Nationals into the Ex-Reds took one more step yesterday when he called up D'Angelo Jimenez from Triple-A Columbus.

Jimenez joins four other players Bowden acquired for the Reds during his tenure in Cincinnati on the Nats 40-man roster:
Ryan Wagner
Felipe Lopez
Dmitri Young
Austin Kearns

I think Bowden is more likely building a copy of the 2006 Royals than the 2003 Reds.  Boy, what a mess that organization is in this year.  I'm being drawn into following their year to see how bad it gets.  Very much like a slow motion train wreak.

Also, which of these two will drop of a heart attack first:

Ray King, or
Dmitri Young.

I'd say it is a neck-in-neck race, but there are no necks to be found in this pair.  God, I'm a cruel bastard sometimes.

Bowden..
I really have no idea what Bowden's plan is (assuming he has one). Is he so attached to the old Reds players who played under him? Does he not scout other players who haven't played for the Reds? I think Sean Casey said it best this Spring when the Tigers visited the Reds and he said that he's got more old Reds friends in WASH than CIN.

On to the Second Question..
My guess is Dmitri Young will drop dead of a hear attack first (probally when a bat is thrown at him during a family reunion)..
