They're so frustrating though we're all used to their ways. Spend money all the time on new features in the ballpark and trade off their best players prior to free agency. This rinse and repeat "rebuilding cycle" is BS. Good move trading off Frazier, leading HR hitter on last year's team for a team that cant manufacture runs. Got too impatient on Encarnacion for an over the hill Scott Rolen while Edwin is one of the best power hitters in the game. Overrated Homer Bailey got paid based on 2 no hitters and solid at best numbers. That money should have gone to Cueto or to acquire an impact bat in the lineup. I don't understand for the life of me the logic of our #1 prospect Robert Stephenson being optioned twice to Louisville after quality starts in a season only 2 1/2 weeks old. Logic doesn't imply to Cincinnati, if it did, our best prospects like Stephenson and Peraza would be called up to jump start the future rather than it being on hold. Cincinnati is too conservative with prospects. Who the hell heard of this Tim Melville before the pitching injuries? Wouldn't be here if they wouldn't have demoted Stephenson. It was funny hearing Matt Jones blast JJ Hoover and Jumbo Diaz a couple days ago.
