I just hope we make a move on Robb Nen, Chuck Finley, Todd Stottlemyre John Smiley or another veteran pitcher up to Dusty's standards. Travis Fryman and Chuck Knoblauch would shore up infield depth and Harold Baines would give us an excellent backup outfielder and pinch hitter.

Francisco Cordero
CINCINNATI -- Reds manager Dusty Baker was home hanging Christmas ornaments yesterday when general manager Wayne Krivsky handed him an expensive bauble: Francisco Cordero, who will be paid $46 million to close games for the Reds for the next four years.
"Hopefully, we have enough left to fill in the other holes we have," Baker said.

Ex-Reds trainer among those interviewed
Starr talked to Mitchell's investigators four times

By Michael S. Schmidt
THE NEW YORK TIMES
Four times during the past year and a half, including once in the past week, investigators for George J. Mitchell have interviewed a former major-league baseball trainer in the hopes of learning the names of players who used banned performance-enhancing substances.
Larry Starr, who was the head trainer for the Cincinnati Reds from 1972 to 1992 and for the Florida Marlins from 1993 to 2002, said Wednesday that he shared with investigators his perspective and knowledge on the use of performance-enhancing drugs but would not divulge the names of any players he knew who took such substances.
