The Reds battled back to get a split of the series with the Cubbies at GABP today. Didn't get to hear the game because I was on a cross-state trip with my boss, but I was pleased with the result. Things are looking better. On the other hand, in 10 days this might be a different team.
A couple of points, nugget style.
- Could Valentin be any hotter? He's having a career week.
- If you thought Milton had turned the corner....well, he went back again.
- Nice to Kearns contributing. We can use all the help we can get.
- I love today's lineup. Casey OUT. If only Randa had started for Aurilia.
Now, let's win the Brewer series. Ramon Ortiz, please show us something tonight.
Somewhat comically, these two stories ran in today's Enquirer and DDN.
The Enquirer says "Griffey May Be On the Block"
Meanwhile, in DDN, Hal says there's no Griffey talk.
Well, let's see. Hal is using actual live on the scene scouts as his source. And the Enquirer is using gossip-mongering, Peter Gammons wanna-be Jayson Stark. Who is right?
My guess. Griffey stays. And so do ALL of our major players. We may trade Weathers or Mercker (maybe Milton), but at the end of the day no one moves, because the club can't maintain credibility if it makes deals without getting value, yet other teams are not going to overpay for anyone we have.
