Well, I'm glad Geoff Blum gave a tacit approval this morning. It's a very short post, but John Fay is reporting the Reds have traded third baseman Jeff Keppinger to the Astros for a PTBNL. There's your 3B1.
More analysis later, but here's a sampling of comments from the Enquirer's site...
-Keppinger was beginning to be well liked by Cincy fans... good thing we got rid of him now... so we don't get too attached...
-Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!
-first Hamilton, Cantu,..now Keppinger...one mistake after another, team will finish 20 games back..Baker will be history, we lack an outfield, have no healthy shortstop, a marginal catcher and 2 starters Harang and Arroyo that are about finished
That guy (SportsGod is his handle) wins the Eeyore Award. I'm guessing the ellipses
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
