Then, it started. What’s your favorite guy to pitch against? How old are you? Did you ever wish you could face Derek Jeter?

Great article.

Reds are a team that is likely to have been drooling over webb for some time... shoe is just making the point that the reds are a team that would overpay in a trade for him when webb gets close to FA... |

To be honest, Webb would likely love to play for the Reds <since their ballpark is a mere 500 feet or so from Kentucky. I'd really hate to see him go. |

I agree that he could, but you think we're going to move him? Obviously his agent will want top $, but maybe he'll be settled, have kids, and want to stay, especially if the org shows a commitment to winning.
Either way, I hope he has a down year so maybe we can extend him at a reduced rate rather than right after winning another Cy Young.

I hope BW isn't the first casualty of us being a mid-market team and not being able keep our own.
