Nope. (2002)

 

 

They have been bad for so long that all of the years are running together.

 

Since I'm willing to play along and not look anything up will you say how many were pitchers?

Maybe Reitsma?

Brandon Larson?

 

Seriously this is tough. Are there any big named guys?

Freel?

And now I'm stuck again. Are any of the others big names?

Maybe Reitsma?

 

There is 1.

Freel?

Came up with the BlueJays.

Brandon Larson?

 

 

Here is #2.

Corky Miller comes to mind. He's with the Twins now.

Not really, only one other that you would probably recognize...

Here is #3.

There are 3 more that are very recognizable (maybe memorable is a better word), then 4 that only the hardcore Reds' fans will remember.

Okay, I have to be off for awhile, so here are the 10 players that made their MLB debut in 2001 with the Reds (along with the 21 year old Adam Dunn):

 

Jose Acevedo

Justin Atchley

Lance Davis

Jared Fernandez

Brandon Larson

Scott MacRae

Corky Miller
