I wish I hated anything as much as you hate the Reds lol

It was a great move. Cueto wasn't resigning, so he got 3 players out of it, 2 of which still have bright futures.

Heck, if I had the same mentality as you, I'd be furious at Theo and Jed Hoyer for trading away a multi time All Star pitcher while he was in the minors for a guy they flipped for 3 solid, if unspectacular relief pitchers. Or trading away a multi time All Star 2B who has won a gold glove and led the NL in BA for a guy they cut within 3 months.

No GM makes the best move 100% of the time.

Castillo was dominate on Saturday night. 6 2/3 shutout innings with eight K's. What took these idiots so long to bring this kid up? His minor league stats are above average for his career. Votto, Tucker and Scooter go deep.

Reds sign their top draft choice and MLB number 2 selection overall. Some serious dollars involved for a 17 year old.

Castillo is pitching great ! Votto Number 26 ! Gennett 15 th of the season! He was a smart pickup.

Cozart will be starting at shortstop for the NL team in the All-Star game in this first appearance. And becomes the first Reds shortstop to start the game since Barry Larkin in 2000.

Votto makes it as a bench player at first.

Votto now owes Cozart a donkey!!

Price needs to go. This team lacks energy. Price looks lost on the bench. This team needs a fire lit under their butts. Completely outclassed so far in their series vs. Washington.

While I do believe that Price hasn't had much of a real chance based on the talent that he's been dealt, I do believe that they need a change in leadership. I was honestly shocked when they brought him back this season, but if you're going for a full rebuild, winning games isn't the most important thing.

With that said, there's not a lot a manager can do when the starting pitcher gives up 5+ runs in the first 2-3 innings every game.
