    Wily Mo to the Nationals

    For a PTBNL. Bowden's apparently going to collect all the guys he acquired while GM @Cincy.

    so does this mean that the Reds "won" the Arroyo-Wily Mo trade?

    I don't think there's any doubt about that, although I still think Wily Mo will develop into a good producer if he's ever given the opportunity to play full-time.

    Raise your hand if you're surprised? Good, glad to see I am not surprised with this move by Leatherpants.

    I LIKE THIS PICKUP FOR THE NATIONALS. PENA SHOULD GET MORE PLAYING TIME THERE AND HAVE THE CHANCE TO PROVE HIMSELF.


    NICE JOBS NATIONALS!!!

    Yeah not a bad move but where do you play him and at who else's expense? Platoon him in left with Church or play him in CF over Nook Logan? Either way it's good for Wily Mo and he is a worthy kid for a shot.

    When and how the Reds add to their five World Championships, nine pennants and nine division titles seems less important than the franchises' lineage, which traces a line back to the dawn of the professional game and their role as keeper of the historic flame they lit by birthing the Red Stockings in 1869.

    You bench Church against lefties and go Pena-Logan-Kearns and you tell Nook to go suck a fat one against righties and go Pena-Church-Kearns.

    Yay Pena!
