Excerpt of Posnanski's Forthcoming Book: The Machine
This week SI is running an excerpt of Joe Posnanski's forthcoming book The Machine: A Hot Team, a Legendary Season, and a Heart-stopping World Series -- The Story of the 1975 Cincinnati Reds.
My apologies for posting a fanshot before commenting in an actual thread. If this link has already been posted, let me know and I'll delete this fanshot.
I'm also wondering if anyone has read Daryl Smith's book Making the Big Red Machine: Bob Howsam and the Cincinnati Reds of the 1970s. That one sounds interesting, too.

Thank you
and you’re welcome. I figured you guys would like the excerpt. I like what I’ve read of Posnanski (his blog and SI stuff, I’ve not read his book). I look forward to this one. What a team.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
I pre-ordered
I know the book club thing for The Soul of Baseball kind of fizzled, but I’d be interested in trying again if others are up for it.
I think it's worth a couple of discussion threads, for sure

BRM days were the greatest days of this franchise.
What a team.
What team
What a creative and simple manager…
