Homer Bailey's FIRST win of the season!

The last time we faced Josh Banks

He went mano a mano with Aaron Harang in relief during that 18 inning atrocity. Well, Harang may no longer be here, but I have every confidence hat Homer will smite this Banks fellow. By the Hammer of Grabthar, Harang shall be avenged!

That's a good point.

In a way, if Banks wouldn’t have pitched so well in that relief appearance, Aaron’s arm wouldn’t be ruined for half of the season. Ergo, Josh Banks is responsible for Aaron on the DL. Get’m, David Dewitt!

Banks was a very nice waiver pickup by Kevin Towers.

He’s pretty good at that sort of thing.

hold on to everyone

By the way, I just got back. Who’d Bruce drive in an how’d that man get there?

weathers will bring at least one pick

affeldt could, too.

I’d like to see Arroyo in another uniform.

FIRE DUSTY BAKER

by Blue on Jul 21, 2008 7:59 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

right

Arroyo is also in the “leave” camp. And Griffey, if any poor sap takes him.

...because there's already someone posing as Jacob Brumfield

by Cy Schourek on Jul 21, 2008 8:01 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Well

I think would could package like Weathers and Ross to FLA or Affeldt (since they had interest in the offseason) and Bako to the NYY.

I’d like to get Eulogio de la Cruz in a Reds uni or maybe just add some low minors high upside guys.

My worry is if we trade Arroyo then it leaves Volquez and Cueto prolly throwing too many pitches/innnings on the season. But we if get something we need like Max Ramirez, then pull the damn trigger.
