Caleb-

Would it be easier on you to just do a ‘this week in Reds baseball’ on a Sunday or Monday, then we can rec it up to stay around for the week???

Just a big fan of consolidation here, kinda like the Reds on this date in 1974. I mean they could have spread the runs out, but they felt like sticking five together would be nice.

Anyone else have a thought or idea??

Uh if ain't broke don't fix it.

Though some might argue that "best utility player" is a contradiction in terms.

I had no idea that Bench played any 3B

What does a mama bear on the pill have in common with the World Series? No cubs.

He was pretty horrible as a non-catcher.
