It is also seriously rumored on ESPN that they will trade Phil Nevin for Sidney Ponson pending his no-trade clause.

Living in Baltimore, I wouldn't mind see Ponson go. Yea, he has (or had) potential to be a very great pitcher, but so far our "ace" is not coming through like he should, and Nevin would be a good DH for this ball club, considering they are in the AL east and dealing with the Bo-sox and yanks. It could happen.

Joe Randa is one of the most complete class acts in baseball. He busts his butt all the time, hits well, fields great, is a tremendous clubhouse leader, active in the community, great interview, great influence on young players...just a great guy to have on your ball club. I was sorry to see him leave KC.

Yeah, Joe Randa sucks. Of course, so does Sidney Ponson.

BP likes the two new Red prospects.... I approve of the trade because the Padres got Travis Chick for Ishmael Valdez last year :lol:

As a Reds fan I got to read a lot about Randa. I'm happy for him that after all these years of playing for bad teams, he's going somewhere with a shot of getting to the post season. I'll be rooting for the Pads now.
