Labor Agreement Could Make Offseason Interesting
Well I finally mustered up enough motivation to blog again. Sorry for the long sabbatical, but I've found it difficult to find interesting things to write about over the last month-and-a-half. The disappointing season for the 2011 Cincinnati Reds has

Votto for Bautista? Think Before You Laugh
I think it's safe to say Cincinnati Enquirer Reds beat writer John Fay stirred up Red Leg Nation with this post Monday. As faithful reader to this blog, The Dean, put it about Fay, "he lost cool points with the organization." As the Reds currently ar...

Quiet on Reds Trade Front & Here's Why
As MLB's non-waiver trading deadline ticks down, the two trades that stand out for Reds fans has to be outfielder Hunter Pence to the Phillies and pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez to the Indians. In looking at what each team gave up in those respective deals, ...

Thoughts on Gomes, the season and Utley
The trade of Jonny Gomes was a tough one, but necessary for the Reds moving forward. At 50-53, sitting in 4th place in the NL Central and 5 games from the top, it's time to see what Chris Heisey and Yonder Alonso can do at this level. I'm sure Fred L...

Weighing in on Jimenez Rumor
The story first reported by Fox Sports.com about the Reds inquiring about Rockies starter Ubaldo Jimenez is a perfect example of the type of move Walt Jocketty should attempt to make. If you're going to start trading these prospects, the Reds must ge...

Reds are D.O.A.
The Reds may be sending four position players to Tuesday's All-Star Game for the first time since 1976, but it is by no means the sign of a banner first-half of the season. Instead, Sunday's late-inning collapse in Milwaukee completed a 2-5 road trip

Fate in the Reds Hands
A little more than halfway into the 2011 season and the Reds face the biggest road trip of the year. Seven games until the All-Star break. Seven games that very likely could make or break their season. Sitting at 43-42, but just two games back of fir...

Welcome to 4th Place -- Sort of
While the Reds aren't technically in 4th place (since the Cardinals and Brewers are tied for 1st), Cincinnati now has 3 teams to chase down in the division as the Pirates --yes those Pirates -- have leap-frogged over the Redlegs. It's becoming infuri...

Indians Provide Fireworks
Reds fans can certainly identify with their counterparts from Cleveland. It's been a little while since the Tribe have been in a pennant race this late in the season. It's the same type of excitement the Reds generated last year at Great American Bal...

Cueto Possibly Following in Rijo's Footsteps
There were a lot of positives to take out of the Reds three-game series win versus Tampa Bay, but the 4-3 loss in game 2 of that series still bothers me. I guess it's because it's the type of game they'll have to win if the Reds return to the playoff...
