Please appeal for more games to set a better example for the kids… No more music videos (YM) or documentary series until we actually win something of significance.

“EVENDALE, Ohio — As the Major League Baseball season starts, drivers on I-75 might notice a bright white billboard with a clear message to Cincinnati Reds owner Bob Castellini: #SellTheTeamBob. Chad Dotson, host of The Riverfront Podcast, said the idea for the billboard started as a joke last summer. "Some time during the summer, someone said we ought to put up a billboard," Dotson said. "If Bob Castellini and the ownership group doesn’t try to improve the team, he should sell the team." Dotson said he grew upset, like many fans, when the Reds dismantled their roster following a playoff season in 2020 and a decent run in 2021. Sonny Gray, Jesse Winker, Eugenio Suarez and more were shipped off this offseason for prospects. “The frustration kind of boiled over a bit. We said you know what? Let’s throw a GoFundMe up there," Dotson said. "We designed a t-shirt, put it out there, did a GoFundMe. We said every dime of this we’ll put it into a billboard.” The group needed more than $4,000 to run the ad for one month. Dotson said 200 Reds fans mostly donated anywhere between $5-25 for the billboard.” “I want to divide the team from the ownership. This is a group of 200 hardcore fans of the Reds. They don’t hate the Reds. They’re mad at ownership. They love the team," Dotson said. "They’re going to watch the game tonight, opening night game, cheering for the Reds." The billboard is not the first time Reds fans have expressed their frustration. #SellTheTeamBob was trending for about a day after the Reds' fire sale. After the moves, team president Phil Castellini called for fans to trust the front office and come to games this season. https://www.wcpo.com/sports/baseball/reds/billboard-calls-for-cincinnati-reds-owner-to-selltheteam-as-mlb-season-starts

Shelby Miller of course a former Cardinal...

I'm still convinced TLR just watched John Wick II and is simply confusing Leury with bad ass Common.

Revisiting Dave Stewart’s D-backs Trades April 10th, 2020 at 8:40am CST • By Steve Adams Dave Stewart’s transition from agent to Diamondbacks general manager was both brief and frenetic. Not afraid to make moves that bucked industry trends, Stewart’s regime aggressively moved young talent for veterans, seemingly placed a lower value on draft picks than other clubs and made what proved to be a pair of high-profile missteps on the international market as they set out on a clear win-now path. Sounds familiar? I think they are referring to Yasmany Tomas here.

They certainly looked to be having a lot more fun together. All those meme pics with TLR acting like a younger hipper version just felt a bit forced...and uncomfortable.

Pretty sure it was Dave Stewart, but the point still stands.

No wonder the retirement talk...he suddenly looks like the grizzled aging vet he is.

We know the White Sox won't even pay Trevor Story or Javy Baez money in FA...

Wanted to reward him by showing confidence in him after his stellar defensive play tonight...blah blah.

How many White Sox fans in the world will watch every inning of a VV Saturday afternoon start? Minnesota won Thursday with a sac fly, it's almost a given another division rival will continue the momentum sweep on road unless Giolito can somehow stop the bleeding on Sunday.

Better find out after the game that $73.5 million Grandal was unavailable to pinch hit! Leury hitting third? Now we probably will get TA7 waiving his appeal so Tony can sit him tomorrow to teach him some type of old school baseball lesson when we need all the offense we can assemble against Bundy. Five...looking like a strong possibility of six losses in a row. Still just one game out of first place but might as well be five games back if this is how they're going to play this year.

Not with his control that inning. But veteran always gets the call at home against the rookie.

LaRussa has to go in April or May to get this team going somehow. We're starting Velasquez tmrw. World Series contender?

Fastball or slider?

That's why Sanchez isn't catching. Why NY ran him out of town.

Burger has to be the hero. Just can't get that key hit with RISP.

What the heck?

Hanging tough. Doesn't look like a Sox at bat this year.

Is there a rule we can't use the highest paid player in club history in a night game before a day game?

Low low low. Sigh. The strike one call might have keyed the at bat.

Really? 7/20 for strikes.

That was accidentally the right move there arguably.
