By Charlie Scrabbles Poll Was it injuries that caused the Reds to fall to (yet another) losing season? Yes, losing Votto, Volquez, Harang, Bruce, Hernandez, and others for extended periods of time really crippled the team. No, the team just wasnt all that good to begin with.

By Slyde Joey Votto, Brandon Phillips, and Jay Bruce are in the lineup though.  The three have combined to hit .393/.455/.714 since Bruce came off of the DL on September 14th.  If they had just done that all season, the Reds would be in a much better spot than they are now, that's for sure.

By Charlie Scrabbles and Reds Yorman Rodriguez and DD (nee Mariekson) Gregorious show up on the list. Yorman is a really intriguing player, as he was just 16(!!) this season playing in a league with guys 2-4 years older than him. I hadnt even hit puberty yet at that age.  HT to Doug.

By Pat Lackey The Reds, on the other hand, are apparently convinced that the time is now to strike in the NL Central with their young core, and adding Dye should help make up the power void created by losing Adam Dunn.

By Peter Bendix The Reds have a unique opportunity in 2009. They will be without both Adam Dunn and Ken Griffey Jr. – both of whom have been well below average defenders.

By Erik Who’s your pick? Who’s gonna win it? No not the “race” between the probable NL MVP Ryan Howard and Dunner (AD would need one heck of a hot streak for even a .2% chance at winning it).
