Both Weaver brothers are retired, but we'll always have the tacos we shared together.

On September 23, the Reds honored Arroyo with "Kickin' it With Bronson" night. Prior to the game, a ceremony was held with video tributes from manager Bryan Price and singer Eddie Vedder.[20] After the game, Arroyo held a concert on the field, performing Pearl Jam covers with his band.

speculating, but is this the end of the road for carlos beltran? he's 40, a free agent to be, and second worst in baseball by fWAR (-1.2, behind only pujols at -1.7)

i would imagine he's done, yeah. or should be!

nomar, Thursday, 28 September 2017 17:02 (six years ago) link

every once in a while i think about his 2004 playoffs and sigh

mookieproof, Thursday, 28 September 2017 17:29 (six years ago) link

Beltran for sure. Wouldn't be shocked if this was it for Bautista too, tho he could still be a serviceable bench RF/3B/DH – he might not go for that.

fuld: i don't know, but i know who does. hold on.
fuld: 19
thanks fuld!

fuld just sets up the weekly conference call with key information people and lets them address any outstanding issues and introduce new ones. he'll maintain good working relationships and make sure that any unresolvable issues are raised to upper management on a timely basis.
