Which recent former Red do you wish the Reds still had?

[gametime]

I'd expect more of you. :jump:

Bad habit, but when I think of former Reds pitching isn't quick across my mind...

I would say Rich Aurilia...but I haven't been following him, are his stats bad this season?

No, but he isn't a top flight closer. A spot, as you may recall, the Reds are woefully short in. Imagine the bully if Weathers moved back to the set-up role and everyone else found their level.

 

This team needs a closer; more than any other need (besides a right-handed hitter with some pop), and BJ Ryan is a MLB Top 10 closer.

 

This is so easy...

He is 75. BJ Ryan is young.

Todd Walker, because he has been one of the most-underrated players his enitre career. He has always had great potential.

Has he ever lived up to it??

A 34 year old .280 hitter from the left-side (where the Reds have about 1,376 guys). Where in the world would you play him?

 

I like T-Walk, great effort, solid hitter -- however, doesn't fit with this bunch.

BRETT TOMKO! lol

 

I can't think of any recently, aside from Aurilia

[LRCW]

Isn't Ryan on the DL with a bum elbow?

Yes. I'm thinking big picture.

He is 75. BJ Ryan is young.

Didn't he just go on the DL?

 

My choice is obvious for me.......................Sean Casey. Bring my son's favorite player back. Remember when he was ripped for JUST hitting 300 every year.

Out of that bunch listed I'd say Rich.
