May 14, 200719 yr Bucky Ball would be the short term solution. If they want to go big, some names could include Dusty Baker, Joe Girardi, or Buck Showalter. Personally, I think Girardi would be a good fit in Cincinnati. Girardi would be my pick out of those three.
May 14, 200719 yr So if you fire him now, what's the plan? Wasn't that the real problem with Boone, Miley and now maybe Narron? Who's next? If they go this route, it better be big... Keep Narron or promote Dent on an interim term. At the end of the year if Joe Torre is available, pursue him. Is that big enough:ylsuper:
May 14, 200719 yr I'd like to see someone of the Larry Bowa ilk, who'd get in your face. And frankly, Girardi may be that guy, leaving Bucky the interim until season's end.
May 14, 200719 yr We should have signed Sweet Lou last year. If Narron gets fired, will his brother still baby sit Hamilton?
May 14, 200719 yr Starting pitching is doing good. Offense is doing well, now. Bullpen stinks, every single cotton pickin' one of them. Which of the managers mentioned will change that?
May 14, 200719 yr If fired, he'd be nothing but a patsy and the players should feel ashamed of themselves...
May 14, 200719 yr If Dusty Baker comes to Cincinnati I'll be giving away my Reds hat. No one's that stupid in the front office,,,,,are they?
May 14, 200719 yr I think he deserves it. He takes the starter out with a one run lead in the 7th inning, when he knows the bullpin is going to blow it.

You overstretch your starters this early in the season and they have nothing come August and September.

May 14, 200719 yr I think he deserves it. I think that he has the talent. I just dont think that he knows how to use it Is that talent hiding? Its certainly not in the pen which has been the main culprit.
