July 30, 200620 yr Just seems to me that Dunn's attitude has improved since Kearns left...of course hitting over .400 in that span may have something to do with it as well... I'd venture to say that his attitude is no different today than it has been any time this season. He's even keel all of the time. I choose not to overanalyze and just recognize that he's finally hitting the ball consistently.
July 30, 200620 yr As a guy coming from AAA, it was solid to me... By that measure, OK. However, he's now a major-league starter and 6.00 won't cut it.
July 30, 200620 yr Latino night. Did you not notice Bernie Brewer with his sombrero? Yes i was kind of confused haha.
July 30, 200620 yr By that measure, OK. However, he's now a major-league starter and 6.00 won't cut it. I agree. That's why I put debut in there...
July 30, 200620 yr 12-4 was the Reds best 2nd half start since 1940. Let's hope tonight reminds them how important every play can be...
July 30, 200620 yr From Baseball Prospectus this evening. Saturday, 10:00 p.m. ET: The name? Craig Wilson. At least three teams are in on him right now, but once again, the Pirates are asking for the moon. The Reds willingness to get in on a rental player signals that they're looking to win now, whether it's to catch the Cards or to hang on to the wild card. The team is now willing to take on some salary if that's what's needed, a big change from the old ownership. Wilson is hardly the only name that the Reds have looked into, although their focus is still on pitching.
July 30, 200620 yr I thought about Wilson today when I was making a list of pitchers and saw Conine's name as well. Wilson seems to be a man without a position in Pittsburgh and would likely be the same in Cincy.

Wilson seems to be a man without a position in Pittsburgh and would likely be the same in Cincy. Agreed. I assume he would play RF. I don't see anything about him that I would give up any player of value or potential for.
July 30, 200620 yr I still think they could get Leiber/Lidle and Dellucci for some mid-level prospects and perhaps Denorfia or Votto.
July 30, 200620 yr I still think they could get Leiber/Lidle and Dellucci for some mid-level prospects and perhaps Denorfia or Votto. I would take either one of those if the buying price was relatively cheap. Lidle is more attractive because of how he's done lately. Lieber is shaky because he's had only one good start in the last two months, so you'd be buying with the hope that he would return to his form of the past couple of years.
July 30, 200620 yr Leiber has also proved durable and eats innings, which could give the Reds' overworked pen a break
July 30, 200620 yr The Reds have optioned Germano back to Louisville. Narron says he was going back no matter how he pitched. They donot need a 5th starter until next weekend. So....that means Claussen to return or a trade?
