With the ink barely dry on the team sale contract...
The Castellini era has officially begun, with the Reds scheduling a 5 p.m. press conference to announce the firing of GM Dan O'Brien. Guess it didn't take long after buying the team for Bob and the Williams brothers to put their heads together and whack somebody.
This move is no surprise by any stretch as I see it, but the inevitable next question still arises..Who are you going to get next? Let the discussion begin.
My vote is for Bob to throw some money at Steve Phillips. He's a Big League GM and Cincinnati needs to get back into the Big League frame of mind again if they plan on competing this year. Not to mention that any move to get him off of television is a good move to me.
