July 28, 200719 yr Should be able to bring in some good prospects with those two. But will need a good hitter to replace Hatteberg. I wouldn't mind a long range plan of Dunn at first (tell him he is going there and be done with it as they did Jr and RF) with Hamilton, Freel/Hopper, Jr in the outfield.
July 28, 200719 yr I'd say he's about about 60. George Grande George Grande Sights & Sounds • 01/03/05: George discusses the 2005 Hall of Fame candidates with MLB Radio George Grande, a 39-year veteran of the broadcasting business, has been the play-by-play voice on Reds TV since 1993. He and partner Chris Welsh are working together for the 15th consecutive season. They are the longest-running TV duo in Reds history. A native of New Haven, CT, George has covered Major League Baseball since 1965. Since 1980 he has hosted the National Baseball Hall of Fame inductee ceremonies in Cooperstown. George also anchored the first-ever ESPN SportsCenter telecast on September 7, 1979 and spent 10 seasons with the all-sports network anchoring that award-winning show and covering the World Series, NBA Finals, Stanley Cup Finals, Super Bowl, NCAA basketball tournament, College World Series and major college football games. From 1989-90 he broadcast Yankees games on WPIX, and from 1991-92 he broadcast Cardinals baseball games before he joined the Reds TV team in 1993. In 1967 George began his broadcasting career as the sports director and news director of the University of Southern California radio station, KUSC-FM, followed by radio stints at KNX in Los Angeles; WERI in Westerly, RI; and WNHC in New Haven, CT. He completed his radio broadcast career by handling the Boston Red Sox’ pre-game and post-game shows on WMEX. Grande also anchored local TV sports telecasts at WTNH in New Haven, CT and at WCBS in New York. He started broadcasting baseball games in 1971 for the West Haven (CT) Yankees in the Eastern League. George graduated in 1969 from the University of Southern California, where he played baseball for 4 seasons and was a member of the 1968 College World Series championship team. While at USC he played with 14 future Major Leaguers, including Hall of Famer Tom Seaver and slugger Dave Kingman. Grande is on the board of directors for USA Baseball. HSSB won't like seeing that Dave Kingman name in a Reds thread. He will immediately go on a defend-Adam Dunn rant. :eek: :sssh:
July 28, 200719 yr Anyone else like how Pete comes out and talks to the pitcher in a real tight spot sometimes.
July 28, 200719 yr I wouldn't mind a long range plan of Dunn at first (tell him he is going there and be done with it as they did Jr and RF) with Hamilton, Freel/Hopper, Jr in the outfield. That looks good, what about Votto?
July 28, 200719 yr Weathers has pitched too much recently and it cost Bronson a win. With that said, you don't have anyone else in the pen you can trust.
July 28, 200719 yr Example #4,271 of how a pitcher's W-L record has little value in determining how well a pitcher pitches.
July 28, 200719 yr Example #4,271 of how a pitcher's W-L record has little value in determining how well a pitcher pitches. But still one of the top two ways they get paid.:thumb:
