  • Why Did Cleveland Indians Sign Mike Napoli Instead of Pedro Alvarez?
    Why did Cleveland Indians sign Mike Napoli instead of Pedro Alvarez? Hey, Hoynsie Paul Hoynes, cleveland.com CLEVELAND, Ohio – Do you have a question that you'd like to have answered in Hey, Hoynsie? Submit it here or Tweet him at @hoynsie. Hey, Hoynsie: Why did the Indians sign Mike Napoli, 34, for one year to play first base when Pedro Alvarez, 27, was available? Did management know Alvarez hit 27 home runs last season? -- Jimmy Garst, Roanoke, Va. Hey, Jimmy: The Indians did show interest in Alvarez, who was non-tendered by the Pirates and became a free agent. I think a couple of things probably came into play: No. 1, Alvarez was more expensive than the $7 million deal the Indians agreed to with Napoli. No. 2, the Indians felt Napoli helped them two ways – he gave their offense needed pop from the right side of the plate and he improved their defense. Napoli – whose deal should soon be made official – allows the Indians to move Carlos Santana to DH while he will get most of the time at first base. There is no doubt about Alvarez's power, but he made 23 errors at first base last season. I think the Indians preferred Napoli, considering the cost, at first and Santana at DH instead of Santana at first and Alvarez at DH. Hey, Hoynsie: The Reds seem interested in moving outfielder Jay Bruce. Is the Tribe done with its outfield or would it be interested in a guy who is as streaky hitter as there is, but definitely has pop? – Carl Neifer, Cincinnati.

  • Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings November 21, 2012
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings November 21, 2012 CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Pitching is pricey, transactions By John Fay | 11/20/2012 12:17 PM ET Want to know why the Reds would be wise to lock up Homer Bailey and Mat Latos long-term? The Kansas City Royals agreed to a three-year deal with Jeremy Guthrie that pays him $5 million on 2013, $11 million in 2014 and $9 million in 2015. He went 8-12 with a 4.76 ERA and 1.41 WHIP. Bailey went 13-10 with a 3.68 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP. Latos went 14-4 with a 2.48 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP. It’s a bit apples and oranges: Guthrie is a free agent; Bailey is arbitration-eligible for the second time, Latos for the first. But the point is starting pitching — even mediocre starting pitching — is expensive. SIX ADDED: The Reds added right-handers Carlos Contreras, Daniel Corcino, Curtis Partch and Josh Ravin, left-hander Ismael Guillon and outfielder Yorman Rodriguez to the roster in order to protect them from the Rule 5 draft. Report: Former Red Frank Pastore badly hurt in motorcycle wreck By dclark | 11/20/2012 7:55 PM ET The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin is reporting that former Cincinnati Reds pitcher Frank Pastore, a Christian radio personality in California, was badly injured Monday night after being thrown from his motorcycle onto the highway near Duarte, Calif. From dailybulletin.com’s Juliette Funes: A 55-year-old motorcyclist from Upland was taken to a trauma center when his motorcycle was hit by a car on the 210 Freeway Monday night.

  • A's News Clips, Thursday, August 25, 2011 Coco Crisp's Second
    A’s News Clips, Thursday, August 25, 2011 Coco Crisp's second home run of the night gives A's extra-inning win over New York Yankees By Joe Stiglich NEW YORK -- The seventh inning rolled around, and Trevor Cahill was still pitching for the A's, a victory in itself given his past demons at Yankee Stadium. But it got better for the A's on Wednesday. They came from behind to take the lead, coughed it up and then pulled through in 10 innings for a 6-4 victory over the New York Yankees before a crowd of 47,271. In taking the first two of a three-game set, the A's snapped a string of 10 consecutive series lost to the Yankees, an Oakland record for most series lost in a row to any team. The A's hadn't even won consecutive games against New York since June 30-July 1, 2007, but manager Bob Melvin hoped his team wasn't satisfied leading into Thursday's series finale. "You win the first two, you gotta try to get greedy," Melvin said. "(But) it's a nice start to what is a tough road trip." Center fielder Coco Crisp earned top billing on a night when Oakland had several stars. He went 4 for 4 with two homers, including a go-ahead three-run shot off Rafael Soriano (2-2) in the 10th, and tied his career high with five RBIs. Third baseman Scott Sizemore enjoyed the first four-hit game of his career, and lefty reliever Brian Fuentes delivered a clutch outing, entering with men on the corners and no outs in the seventh and stranding both runners, keeping the A's within one run at the time.
