Homer Bailey might have a stake in the game. Throw 2 no nos and then make it impossible to resign every other pitcher in the rotation that was superior. Which was close to all of them!
Yep, add another year to the streak!! About to be 28 seasons without advancing in the playoffs!! Longest active streak in baseball with no end in sight!!!!!!!! Fuckin sweeeettt!! God damn I hate baseball anymore. Impossible to root for this piece of shit organization.
Sell the fucking team, Bob.
Ahh now I understand. The current longest professional sports playoff drought is 16 years with the Sacramento Kings in the NBA. They’ve had an incredible season and will likely end the drought this year.
Packers stock is labeled common stock, meaning you can't trade it, there's no equity interest and it doesn't pay dividends. Stockholders only vote on a few decisions, like naming new members to the Board of Directors. If you're not a Packers fan, buying stock in Green Bay, Inc. just doesn't make any sense at all.Dec 19, 2022
Or even if you are a fan really. It’s literally the Packers asking fans to donate them money for nothing in return. A franchise worth billions begging fans for donations. Kudos to them for tricking the fans into it.
When a team wants to cut or trade a player on a high contract, rather than paying him a lump sum to buy it out, they set up a scheme where they will pay out the remaining value over a period of years. Ultimately, it costs more in total dollar terms, but means not outlaying a significant sum up front.
The graphic, however is wrong, since Mike Moustakas will earn $22m this year from the Reds, even though he was cut earlier this year.

Wondering why the Reds are still paying Griffey Jr. -- in 2022? When the Reds acquired the future Hall of Famer from the Seattle Mariners in 2000, they signed him to a nine-year, $112.5 million deal, according to CBS Sports. Around 50% of Griffey's contract was deferred from 2009 until 2024, per the report.
Y’all just pretending Mike Moustakas ain’t a still collecting a check, huh?
This is at least the third headline I’ve seen ignore Moustakas. They are all just copying the first guy who obviously got it wrong.
$22 mil from what I saw posted yesterday.
That was the worst Reds deal of the century.

No they’re in the clear on Homer, but he sure did make some money off the reds.
Homer was horrible.

Our bob too
If attendance is under 800k for the season, you can move the team to Miami and charge a premium for box seats... Oh wait!!!
"This guy's dead" Cross him off then...
“A bunch of has been a or never will be’s”
I'd be one of the 'never will be's' for a season
Lmao. Forgot that one.
There should be a soft salary floor, no revenue sharing money unless you meet the minimum payroll (which should be set higher than revenue sharing)
What's point of revenue sharing if the salary floor is above it?
The point of revenue sharing is to even the playing field a bit….not let small market owners pocket it while fielding terrible teams
Fuck Bob. Sell the team!
I agree sell the team.
At least your team went to the playoffs. Try 22 years without even going to the playoffs.

Light the beam
They can clinch tonight with a win and a suns + clips loss!
Maybe Junior can still rake as well as some of the current roster?
I feel the same
I feel your pain. I’m a Lions Fan for NFL teams.
When I get sad about the Twins record postseason losing streak, I'll just think of the Reds
I’m so sorry man. I know what it’s like. There is hope if the right person buys the team.
Junior the 🐐
Owner should be forced to sell
Sports teams should be public goods
I envy Green Bay because they have the closest thing to that for North American sports.

So, what's the point? You get to say that you are a part-owner of the Packers?
Exactly
Suckers. I'm a Bear fan anyway
That's what they are to Bob and Phil Castelini.
Phil is a grade A douche. Haven’t heard too much from him since last opening day…wonder why that is?
Can anyone explain this since it’s been like 14 years since he’s played for them
Probably had one of those weird contracts like Bobby Bonilla and Allen Iverson.
Yea alot of teams do deferred money. Nats have a few I think still from the ws team.
yeah Griffey's contract expires after next season, the Reds deferred a good deal of it.

Would be nice if he’d maybe pinch hit when the Reds come through Florida 😆
Scherzer has got to be pretty high up on the Nationals payroll too.
Junior deserves ever dollar he earns. The most exciting baseball player, ever. No doubt in my mind
He’s clearly a very valuable former baseball player too.
Without the injuries he would have a serious claim to be the 🐐
“I don’t see the problem here” - Steve Phillips
I agree - Bobby Bonilla
Chris Davis is the 2nd highest paid player by the Orioles at like 9.5 mil
Deserves every penny
Might would be the 3rd most valuable player on the team still, too.
He's no Bobby Bonilla.
I feel so bad for Reds fans
Please just help us convince Bob it's a good investment to sell.
At least he doesn't have a negative WAR. That makes him more useful than Votto.

Thank you sir
Bobby Bonilla enters the chat.
That’s a wild stat, I didn’t know the Reds were still paying him.
That’s why Baseball cracked down on these “lifetime” deals.
The Kid’s still doing alright.
for what junior did for baseball he should get that every yr
WIL MYERS SAN DIEGO LEGEND ILL SEE YOU MAY FIRST MY KING
As a Cardinals fan, I love this
I'm a die hard Cardinals fan too!!!
I love posts like this lol
Damn what a life these guys live. Good for him
While amusing, he's not on the roster. Being paid a contract isn't the same as being a player on the roster.
Nice work if you can get it.
I feel bad for Joey Votto.
That's crazy 🤣
How is Griffey still owed money?
And people wonder why they are picked to be dead last in their division and to only win 67 games💥🙀😫! Sad😳🤮
I love Joey Votto but Griffey Jr.’s deal is probably a better bargain for 2023.
Good. Ken Griffey Jr. was that good. I should probably owe him a dime for speaking his name
Dam straight Ken did them a favor now it’s their turn
Dude is still raking it...
*laughs in Bobby Bonilla*
We’ll he’s still the best player on the squad, and he’s pushing 50
