I had a talk with longtime Reds scout, Gene Bennet before the game today. During a discussions about scouting, he told me that the Reds could have had Lance Berkman instead of Simone Peters.
Peters is 6'7" and could hit the ball a long, long way. Jim Bowden, the rotisserie league player disguised as a major league general manager was a sucker for big guys that could hit the ball 500 feet.
Unfortunately, Peters is out of baseball because in between tape measure blasts, he made little contact.
Meanwhile, Berkman has made a living hitting Reds pitching hard.
