Over the course of a season its meaningless, but it's still annoying to witness. We could bat Donaldson 8th and it wouldn't make much difference (see Ned Yost) but that doesn't change the fact that it is annoying to see.
I'm actually f***ing pissed. Gibbons is gonna run this team into the ground before we even reach the playoffs. Guys like Bautista/Edwin/Russell/Tulo should be getting some rest by DHing. Not Navarro. EVER.
What a tool
So you want to get rid of guys like Tulo and Martin but also want to trade for Votto? What is your logic there? At least if Tulo and Martin stop hitting, they still play premium defensive positions. If Votto stops hitting... He's useless
Can this Votto rumor just die already? There's no way this front office would try to acquire him except as a salary dump. And the reds won't see him as a salary dump until his skill declines to a point where he wouldn't even be worth his salary.
