Too bad they lost the one guy they thought they could depend on. Now it seems that they will try alomost anything to catch up. If the Orioles can’t use him, how good can he be?

I loved his potential, but was always frustrated by his performance. Good luck to him in Cincy though.

..well, besides a high ERA and loss total.

So there’s that. Enjoy Reds.

Cincinatti feels like a sleeping giant.
