Reds Make Moves, Bowden Claims Kenny Kelly

The Reds had a couple moves to make today, and make them they did. The Reds activated Ryan Freel, which is good. They let Kenny Kelly, who is out of options, be DFA'd. He was snapped up by Jim Bowden, and is no longer a Red. In the meantime, we called Austin Kearns back up, and risked (HORROR!) Anderson Machado on the waiver wire. We'll see if Bowden gobbles him up, too. (Has Bowden seen the Nats' record and our record? Just a thought.)

Lancaster is reporting that Cruz is starting in RF tonight, so stay tuned, there may be other shoes. Or it might just be crappy managing. Also, Freel is in and Aurilia is benched. Had Aurilia been moved to SS, I would fear a riot might occur.

Boy, do I feel like an idiot. Marc is now reporting that the Rockies picked up Machado. There is a real shocker. At least we kept the right one (Bergolla.)

Ok, sigh. Maybe they aren't as dumb as I thought.
