OT: Reds hire Terry Francona

[UKhoopCat]

And I love it. Now get him some middle of the order batters.

 

[Bluesnky]

Manny and Big Papi are available.

Hopefully the owners spend some money

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

Great hire!

I doubt he's coming out of retirement without some sort of guarantee he'll have a competitive roster. Krall has needed to quit sitting on his hands for a long time and maybe this could be the start

Great hire now they need to spend money on talent. That’s what will hold them back, cheap ass owners.

How is this UK basketball, or even any basketball related?

Move to another board.

Reds could have a competitive roster if they could quit being one of the most injured teams in baseball year in and year out. They need to overhaul their training and medical staff as well. But i also think they need to solidify players at their positions. Having 17 shortstops playing every position on the field isn't a recipe for winning.
