Wells is the only Red to file for free agency, but the Reds still have some decisions to make. They’ve already made the questionable decision to bring back Ramon Hernandez . Next up: Jonny Gomes and Laynce Nix.
Should the Reds bring either of ...

According to Ken Rosenthal :
The Reds have re-signed catcher Ramon Hernandez to a one-year contract, according to a major-league source.
The deal also includes a vesting option for 2011 that will become guaranteed if Hernandez appears in 120 games next season.

John Fay’s column yesterday was an attempt to list reasons why the Reds shouldn’t trade Brandon Phillips and/or Bronson Arroyo. It’s all based on the premise that the Reds might be able to compete in 2010.

As of Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 11, Todd Benzinger knew he would be returning to the Dragons to manage the team for a second season, but he didn’t know who his coaches would be.

I’ve mentioned it here before, and I’ll mention it again (I’m sure), but Barry Larkin is my favorite Red of all time. I think he needs to be brought back to the Reds in some capacity (Manager? George Grande’s replacement on the television broadcasts?), and we’ve ...

I spent the weekend out of town and away from the television, but I DVR’d the Arizona Fall League futures game . I’ve only watched an inning thus far (saw Chris Heisey hit a homer and Yonder Alonso get gunned down trying to stretch a single into a double), so I haven’t seen ...
