Reds pitching coach Dick Pole has a nice staff, and the best name in baseball since Royals 1B man, Pete LaCock.

Balfour for a pitcher is pretty good I think. :lol:

That is right up there with Bob Walk (also a pitcher) from the 80's.

You can't go wrong with good 'ol Sixto Lezcano

Then there are the obvious Milton Bradley and Coco Crisp.

Do you think that pitcher Josh Outman ever had a choice of what position to play?

And Howard Johnson! Also, Ronald McDonald played in the Twins organization in the 1970's!

Razor Shines! Razor played in Montreal along with Tim Raines. It was said the Expos would win come Raines or Shines.

And the appendages: Rollie Fingers, Rich Hand, Bill Hands, Barry Foote, Boots Day.

Speaking of the Expos, is anyone besides me old enough to remember hearing the PA guy there in the early 70's roll the names of John Boc-ca-bel-la and Coco Laboy?
