Reds Sign Eric Milton

[WC64]

Just read this on chat wrap with Rob Neyer LOL

Keith (Cincinnati): Any thoughts on the Red's moves? Did they overpay? Will they trade an outfielder?

Rob Neyer: Overpay? For Paul Wilson and Eric Milton? Naaaaaaahhhh. Oh, except that Milton's an extreme fly-ball pitcher, and Great American Ballpark is where fly balls go to become home runs. Two years from now (if not sooner), the Reds will do whatever it takes to dump the last year of Milton's contract. This is probably the worst deal of the winter, right up there with Russ Ortiz.
