How to fix the Reds by Courtney Glove (Trevor)

 

How to fix the Reds by Courtney glove (Trevor)

 

1.    1.  we need to buy low and sell high. So we should trade jay bruce for jose reyes

2.    2.  in keeping true to buying low and selling high we should trade Volquez and Bailey for someone that can play third base like Russell Branyan

3.     3. we wont afford votto when his contract is up so we should trade him for a veteran like todd helton

4.    4. call up boxburger

5.    5.  fire dusty and hire Ron Oester as manager or Eric Davis

6.     6. make cueto the closer and see if Cordero can do well in the rotation

7.     7. sign ryan franklin and make him set up

8.     8. trade travis wood and bring back wily mo!!

9.     9. After you trade for Branyan you can start Francisco at 3rd and bench rolen

10. 10. Sign Jim Edmonds and bench stubbs since we need a leader

11. 11. Trade dead weight like Cairo and Hanigan for Felipe Lopez and get Freel

 

I think this is how you fix us. Let me know yr thoughts. Kthnxbi

This is terrible.

This won’t fix the team at all. You also need to trade Brandon Phillips for Luis Castillo. The Reds need some good veteran presence and Phillips isn’t the guy to do it. Plus, I think Castillo is a free agent, so you could just DFA Brandon.

The problem with Phillips

is that he is only good on the field and in the clubhouse.
The Reds need someone who is also good off the bench so that he can sit until the eighth or so inning just in case.
It would be nice if the player could play third base, preferably if he also would refuse to do so.

Trade filips for a couple guys like that. We might have to give up cwato to, but we could make it work.

first

it was a sarcastic post

second:
sure. If the alternative is calling him a bad influence, I would say he is good.

Courtney, will you make funny faces to entertain me?

No! Never triangle-face! I hate triangle face! It scares me!

It's Pyramid Head from Silent Hill.

That’s what popped into my mind when you said triangle face and scares me.

I love scary movies

But I cannot play scary video games. I don’t understand it. Maybe it’s the act of actively participating in being scared vs passively observing.

I do find scary video games scarier than movies

But I still like them.

Clive Barker’s Undying still scares the pants off me. I picked it up out of the discount bin and wasn’t expecting much, since it was such an old game. Jeez Louise. It’s amazing. So immersive, with the sound effects and all. Hearing claws on stone in the dark behind you…much scarier in a video game than in a movie.

Elixir for ailing Reds

First: Live or Die with Cozart, Stubbs and Heisey.
Second: Play to win, all the time, playing everyone should be done away with.
Third: Don’t always use Cordero in closing situations.
Fourth: Quit being a player’s manager Dusty – get on guys butts in the Press, call em out.
Fifth: Stick with a set line-up other than catcher platoon which seems to work.
Sixth: Tell Rolen, Votto and Bruce we must have them driving in runs; challenge their manhood.
