That comment was meant to include the limited salary commitments these players have as wellWell, Miller was a free agent, but you are still correct.

This move makes no sense for the Reds and does not really make them much better.

It’s a good trade for the reds. It’s also good for the dodgers to dump puig and kemp. They have better, cheaper options.That you, Troy Loney?

I dont see how adding two guys with 800+ ops doesn’t make a team betterThis move makes no sense for the Reds and does not really make them much better.

I am finding this move harder to judge as I think about it more. I think Wood is a decent add as he will be able to eat innings for them, but he's basically just a left handed Joe Musgrove. Kemp and Puig can be plugged into the starting lineup, Kemp is injury prone and I doubt he'll play 100 games this year. Puig is an interesting add, but it's been a while since he was really good, he looks like just a standard corner outfielder.I dont see how adding two guys with 800+ ops doesn’t make a team betterThis move makes no sense for the Reds and does not really make them much better.

I bet Schilling never gets in by the writers based off his off the field stuff.

Edgar, yes. Mo, yes. Lee Smith, yes. Halladay...I guess so. Mussina...not feeling it. Baines...definitely not feeling it.
More and more, it feels like a lot of these sports are inducting guys just to have a ceremony fit for a 3-hour TV program. You'll see it with football again this year. It's the Hall of FAME, not the Hall of Very Good. I feel like the 'participation award society' we live in now is seeping into the voting for different sports' halls of fame.

Guy converts 89% of saves in a situation where closers convert 88% of saves. OMGWTFBBQ HOW AMAZING!Might be dumbest comment ever about baseball.The most overrated player in baseball history gets to be the first player elected unanimously. Must be nice to be a Yankee.
If you want to pretend having the NY media behind him didn't help his cause, go right ahead.
