kerry wood to reds?

[iceturkee]

best thing i read today.....dusty baker telling his general mamanger to contact kerry wood's agent and see if there's any interest.

i like woody, i'm sorry the cubs cut ties but i certainly understand. but, as much as i would love to see this guy in a reds uni, he doesn't need to be reunited with baker. i pretty much blame baker for killing woody's arm!

I cant believe this!!!...

The last thing the Reds need is Baker as manager and the next to last thing is a washed up, broken down arm Woods on the pitching staff!!!...

PLEASE say it aint so!!!...:river

I agree boomer. We don't need another tired, used up arm to deal with. Get some real starting pitching.

now, woody had a respectable season as the cubs closer. doesn't sound like the reds want him for the starting rotation but for the pen. and not as closer, either!

His arm can't be washed up, he hasn't been able to pitch long enough for that to happen.

Well....it's a "tired, used up arm" DUSTY CREATED!!! No delying Dusty killed BOTH Woods' arm AND Pryor's arm.

Damn do I hate the "Arm Killer" Dusty what-ever-his-name-is.....

From mlbtraderumors today, word is Wood could be going to the Mets or the Tigers...

Tigers would be looking for a closer for a year or two max.

Well, Woody finally found a new home......

Good 'ol Cleveland, Ohio!

After passing a physical, the former Cubs right-hander, who has revived his injury-riddled career as a reliever, finalized a $20.5 million, two-year deal on Saturday with the Indians, whose high expectations in 2008 crashed in a succession of early-season blown saves by an underachieving and unpredictable bullpen.

The 31-year-old gets $10 million next year and $10.5 million in 2010. An $11 million option kicks in if Wood has 55 games finished in either of the next two years.

Prior to the season, we were in desperation of a closer. This signing of Woody has me all worked up! Can't wait till the upcoming '09 season!

Go, Tribe!

If his arm stays sound your Tribe will have just made 9 inning games an 8 inning affair. Still hoping the Tigers find a closer. They've been talking with John Smoltz, but I'm not sure if they want him for the rotation or bullpen.

As long as he is away from the Arm Killer, Dusty Baker, I think he will be fine.

Did I mention how much I disliked Dusty Baker? LOL!
