    Like I say, if we are talking about the Reds, they would have no place for Reed, they have Votto signed for a long time.

    Fiers is having his jersey sown right now at MMP... not that a deal with him couldn't still happen, but that sure is a waste of a job by that seamstress.

    Not sure if you're making a joke with naivety... or you're just really really cruel (based on his medical history).

    If this is true, then yea he certainly isn't going anywhere. Whatever deals are going down have already likely been agreed to and waiting medicals

    Yeah, what I said above... and it wasn't that long ago. He's made a huge recovery just to be on TV again.

    Amazes me how much hatred some people seem to have just because they don't like what a media guy has to say

    That, or, never hurts to have DH insurance in case a commish strong-arms your franchise to the AL.

    Yeah, not that long ago.

    Some people never recover enough to walk/function... let alone go back on TV.

    He's certainly lost a step... hell, he lost a step prior to the stroke... but he's respected/connected still... despite his negative Astros bias.
