Im enjoying Latos being a red with his over 8.00 ERA.

MLB Rumors: The Cincinnati Reds Almost Signed Albert Pujols | Bleacher Report

[Kingdom]

Everyone almost signed him.

I don't know how much I buy it. I could see talking to any of the stud 1B, WHILE talking to Votto about LTC and feeling out how close or not he was to staying around. I think if there was a lot to it, something would have leaked.

The only way Pujols would have made ANY sense was if that immediately triggered a Votto for Bautista deal and pretty much turning over the line in terms of L/R in the middle
1 Phillips 2b
2 Cozart SS
3 Pujols 1b
4 Bruce RF
5 Bautista LF
6 Rolen 3b
7 Stubbs CF
8 Catchers

And then Pujols could be 0-19 in his last 22 ABs

SS Billy Hamilton has slowed down on his Stolen Bases.. But he still has 35 SBs in 35 games.. With a .413 OBP.

Aroldis Chapman was arrested Monday in Grove City, Ohio after driving 93 mph on a suspended license.
Chapman was pulled over after he was recorded speeding while driving his black 2010 Mercedes S63. The Cuban left-hander was then arrested after the officer discovered he had a suspended Kentucky driver's license. He was released after posting bond and is expected to appear in court on June 6. The Reds have yet to issue a comment on the matter.

What a way to celebrate your just being named closer than this. A regular person would get some jail time but I'm sure Chapman won't see a day.

Hamilton has 42 SBs in 42 games.. Best part is his .395 OBP.

Question: How many games are in a minor league season??

[love_that_reefer]

Around 140 or so or at least in AAA. Why isn't there more Reds talk? They are playing very well!

[Prez WilCo]

Dunno. We have won 4 straight and are only 1/2 game back of St. Louis.

What about A+. That's where Hamilton is this season. Do they have 140 or so as well. I'm guessing he will be in AA before season over if he keeps it up.

[love_that_reefer]

70 games in A+ ball.
