Who needs the Nicky mart?
Reds dooooooo
Rip
Damn
Question for the stats/analytics types, his ERA is definitely going up a full point in that ballpark, right?
Ouch. Nick went above and beyond for the needs of the team since the start. Hurts to see the man go. Thank you nick!
Between this being too rich for the Padres’ blood (unless Nick was against returning to the Padres) and rejecting 2/$32M for Wacha… well, the team is definitely cutting payroll
So long partner 😩
So long tight pants. Ig the reds are giving him a starting chance like we did with lugo?
Welp
13M a season for Martinez? Sad to see him go but he wasn’t worth that. But finding pitching is gonna be brutal for us in FA, so hoping it’s preller trade szn cuz some of these deals for 4/5 guys are insane
Glad we got rid of that bum.
(I don’t know much about baseball, but love going to PetCo Park)
Congrats on getting the bag!!! Godspeed my dude!!!
