When asked what immediate plans he had for the team, Darren hinted that a possible trade might be made for Aroldis Chapman after his horrific game losing blown save last night. Baker is considering all offers but is leaning toward a deal with the Pirates for recently released player Brandon Inge. Some think this may still be too high of a price since Chapman is more worthless than used toilet paper.
My interview was cut short with Darren Baker as he had serious new GM type shit to do. Also, it was nap time.

You can tell he has that "Thing" that all great GM's need to succeed.
ReplyDeleteI also heard a rumour from the Reds camp that said Barry Bonds was going to be coming back to help them deal with the Biogenesis ordeal. Darren Baker said he would be well versed on all things related to the issue. He was quoted as saying, "Nobody, I mean nobody is better at avoiding questions and deflecting blame then Mr. Bonds."
ReplyDeleteHe would be great at PR. He was always so well loved by the media.
