Jonathan India on the Reds: "It's the same thing every year here" - Redleg Nation (www.redlegnation.com)

As noted the other day on the digital pages here at Redleg Nation – Bob Castellini and his ownership group bought the team prior to the 2006 season. We’re now 19 seasons in to their ownership. The Reds have finished better than 3rd place two times.

Lately, the team’s front office has really gone full into the “we’re a small market” line of public talk whenever questioned about why they don’t win more, try more, add more talent via trades or free agency, etc. Look around the National League Central. Finished doing that? How many of the five teams in it are “large market” clubs? The answer is one. The Chicago Cubs. And yet they are not the team that’s been running through the division with 1st place finishes year after year after year.

Good but brief article.

We see the issue. But this cheap ass FO won't do a damn thing to fix it. Putting new paint on the walls while the foundation crumbles.

Like the other big team here- FO is terrible. At least FCC got their heads out of their ass, removed berding, and got competent people in. And look at how they've done in comparison to these two franchises.
