Yeah, I follow the Reds. The Reds will never win until Jr and Dunn are gone. Junior's not a winner and Dunn don't care one way or the other. Both need to be moved ASAP, bring up Bruce and let him learn how to play up here. Hatteberg needs to be traded or released - he's not a part-time guy so he'll never produce in that role. He's still got a year or two of baseball left in him, just not here. Hopper needs to be leading off instead of Baker's adopted stepson. Or for that matter, hit Harang leadoff. Something's really, really wrong when your pitcher is hitting 40 points higher than your leadoff hitter. Between now and the Break they have got to get the 25-man staffed with the young kids who will be here for the long haul, and dump everyone who isn't in the plan. A weekly seminar on base running fundamentals wouldn't be a bad idea, either.
