From the Hamilton Journal:
The Cincinnati Reds will retire jersey number 13, worn from 1970-88 by shortstop Dave Concepcion, prior to the Reds-Cubs game on Saturday, July 28, at Great American Ball Park.
At its meeting last week, the board of directors of the Reds Hall of Fame and Museum voted unanimously to retire the uniform number [...]

I’ve discovered the answer to the Reds’ problems. We need to make sure that Daedalus attends more games. After all, they won both of the games this weekend that she attended, and here are some superb photos to prove it.

JinAZ has a fairly in-depth look at the newest Red, reliever Brad Salmon. J thinks Salmon could help the club this season.

For some reason, bullpen construction has become my pet topic lately. It just seems so mysterious. Some clubs (the Reds throughout the 1990s, the Braves and Padres currently) have no problem coming up with a great bullpen, while others (the 2006-07 Reds are the most painful example) can’t get anything to work.
In the next few [...]

Our best wishes, thoughts, and prayers go out to the family of Josh Hancock and the St. Louis Cardinals. Hancock, a former Red, died today in a car accident in St. Louis:
Police said the 29-year-old Hancock was alone in his 2007 Ford Explorer when he struck the rear of a tow truck at [...]

Don’t we all feel just a little bit better about the team today?
Aaron Harang vs. Pat Maholm today, so hopefully the Reds have a good chance to take two out of three in Pittsburgh. Yeah, it’s just the Pirates, but anytime you can win a series on the road, it’s a good thing.
After today, [...]

Can Matt Belisle stem the bleeding tonight? I hope so. His ERA has risen to 4.43 since his outstanding start, so Belisle is due for another good outing, I would guess.
For the Pirates, Tom Gorzelanny will take the hill. He’s 3-0 with a 2.05 ERA, so maybe he’s due for a [...]

No, this isn’t the only thing to discuss about the Reds, but we have more news:
The Reds acquired minor league reliever Marcus McBeth from Oakland on Saturday as part of a trade made a day earlier, and designated left-handed reliever Rheal Cormier for assignment to the minors.
Cincinnati dealt outfielder Chris Denorfia to the Athletics on [...]

There’s been some discussion here and elsewhere about the bullpen, and especially about the roles that have (or haven’t been) established down there. Given that recent discussion, I thought John Fay’s article this morning in the Enquirer about Mike Stanton was interesting:
Don’t be surprised if left-hander Mike Stanton pitches the eighth inning [...]

This is one sporting event about which I just can’t understand the hype. Who cares?
I like college football (I have season tickets for my alma mater’s football games), but I just can’t get into the draft. I’ve barely been able to listen to ESPN Radio over the last couple of weeks because Mel [...]

For your discussion, if you wish…
Griffey diagnosed with pleurisy, listed as day to day:
Ken Griffey Jr. remained out of the Cincinnati Reds’ lineup for a second day Friday with pleurisy, an inflammation in the lining of a cavity surrounding the lungs.

From the Enquirer:
The Reds traded the outfielder to the Oakland A’s for two players to be named and cash Friday.
snip…
The deal basically was agreed to in spring training, but then Denorfia injured his elbow making a throw March 23.
snip…
The emergence of Josh Hamilton, coupled with prospects like Jay Bruce and Drew Stubbs, made Denorfia expendable.
“We [...]

Someone named Larry Dobrow writes for CBS Sportsline. Prior to the season, Dobrow evidently made some predictions, one of which was this: “Jerry Narron will instill the sense of discipline the Reds have lacked since the Piniella era.”
He’s now going back and taking a look at some of his predictions and admitting that [...]
