Joe Blanton- Reds and A's in talks

[brosto1]

I sincerely hope the Reds trade Bailey or even Cueto out of the division. Bailey doesn't dominate in his first fifty innings so get rid of him right away. Brilliant, by 2009 I would be shocked if he isn't their best pitcher.

Maybe I'm in the minority but I like Cueto more than Bailey. If their draft positions were reversed, I would think Cueto would be the balleyhooed prospect, not to take anything from Bailey. I just think Cueto is a mix of Oswalt and Pedro.

[Ennder]

I'm not convinced Bailey is ever going to have enough control to be a good pitcher. I think I like Cueto more as well.

Maybe I'm in the minority but I like Cueto more than Bailey.

 

Nope, I've been doing more blabbing about Cueto (and even Matt Maloney) than Bailey -- I think Bailey will be decent, but I don't blame the Reds for dangling him out there
