“Welcome back, dude.”I wouldn’t wish Cincinnati Red fandom on anyone on earth right now.

As added insult to injury, the Reds also inked Jerry Hairston, Jr., a guy who played like such a moron in Chicago, he made Ronny Cedeno look savvy. Is this what it was like for the rest of the NL Central when Dusty was in Chicago? It’s going to be a long season, Reds fans.
