By now you've heard the big free agent news. That's right, the Nats signed... Corey Patterson. Yes, this Corey Patterson. This isn't even like waking up Christmas morning expecting an official Red Ryder carbine action, two-hundred shot, range model air rifle and finding a lump of coal in your stocking instead. Coal has value. Please, JimBo, no more TFROs.

... , the Nationals signed OF Corey Patterson and RHP Jorge Sosa to minor league contracts today. The 29-year old Patterson appeared in 135 games for the Reds in 2008, batting 205/238/344 with 10 home runs and 14/23 stolen bases. I’d imagine he’s a consideration for center field in 2009. A very bad one, in my opinion. I’d prefer to see Lastings Milledge take bad angles or allow Roger Bernadina an opportunity. I never have been a Corey Patterson fan and likely never will be, he’s a bad everyday player. The 31- year old ...

Caught Stealing

A guy who works at Great American Ballpark has been arrested: A man who works at Great American Ballpark has been charged with stealing a fan's cell phone while he was working. 53-year-old Paul Pawkey is charged with theft after being arrested early Wednesday morning at the ballpark. It's alleged late last month, he stole the phone, and had been making calls on it in the days since.Given his affinity for guys who try to steal with little success, I'm guessing Dusty Baker will be posting Mr. Pawkey's bail.

... Notes: Reinhard was acquired in the Jae-kuk Ryu deal last year from Tampa Bay. Spears was acquired from Baltimore with pitcher Carlos Perez for Corey Patterson. Lalli had a .913 OPS in 261 PA's for Daytona before being promoted and has played split duties between catching and first base. I have no idea what's wrong with Sam Fuld's legs. While never a burner, he'd steal 10 to 20 bases and keep it above 75%. He's been caught five times in AA with just 2 successful swipes. ...

Bronson Arroyo for Shane Victorino?
Published 7/5/2008 by Chad at Redleg Nation
I keep hearing rumors that Bronson Arroyo is about to be traded to Philly for Shane Victorino. Now, I don’t have any strong opposition to trading Arroyo, but Victorino? He just isn’t very good. Don’t the Reds have enough below-average players already? He’s fast, though! And we know that Dusty Baker loves fast guys! In the end, however, I can’t see how this trade ever gets made. Makes no sense.

This is a very long way of saying what we've all known for a while, that Pie needs to get his act together, and fast, or he's going to very quickly play his way out of a job that should, by rights, be his. Not to pile on after all these years, but there was something very satisfying about seeing Kid K K-ing the King of K . Game 2 tonight features the riotous mismatch of Big Z versus Josh Fogg.

Monday's Bunts and Boots--Down With The Phenom
Published 3/25/2008 by Bruce Markusen at Bruce Markusen's Cooperstown Confidential
... Two National League teams demoted top young center fielders last week. The Reds announced that they had sent Jay Bruce, arguably the top prospect in either league, to Triple-A Louisville, thereby clearing the way for Corey Patterson to start the season in center field. There’s no doubt that Dusty Baker’s penchant for veterans played a hand in this; he likes his players proven and experienced. Some have defended Baker’s decision, citing Bruce’s age (21) and his lack of time at Triple-A. But most scouts agree that even a raw, unrefined Bruce is already a better hitter than the ...

... , Dunn and Bruce (ed note: Bruce has since been sent down) will generate a lot of runs, and I like Corey Patterson as the fourth outfielder – but not the starter in center. Yeah, Dunn scrapes .250 but he has hit at least 40 homers the last four seasons and he has walked at least 100 times five out of the last six seasons. He has also averaged 100 runs scored and 100 runs driven in over the last four years. Griffey is a nice complimentary player in the outfield, but he is definitely no longer a star, even if he remains healthy. He has posted OPS+ of ...

... 13 is the number of sacrifice hits that Corey Patterson had last season, which led the American League. As much as fans love to see a player sacrifice himself for the team, the sacrifice can be overrated because it usually results in an out as well, negating the gain of moving a runner over. ...

... 28 year old LHB outfielder Corey Patterson to a minor league deal and invited him to compete for a job on the ballclub. The move is something of a surprise, given the already-thick competition for the center field job between Ryan Freel, Norris Hopper, and Jay Bruce. Nevertheless, Patterson is an intriguing player, and one who might provide surprisingly good value for the Reds. ...

(Calm down, buddy, that last one was a joke!) I really hope it's that, and not that you're interested in the guy . He's a joke. He's just like Nook Logan, but with a bit more power, less of a batting eye, and more strikeouts. Remember how much you guys hated Wilkerson? Well take away his walks and power and there's your man. So stay away! By the way, are we going to exchange gifts again this year? I've got ...
