Finally! More WBC photos

Poor Joey Votto
We've posted some select photos of our trip to Toronto and the World Baseball Classic over in the OMGreds photoblog. Nothing too exciting - just some flavor from up north. A little Dunn, a little Votto... It's all good in the hood.

Seriously, more photos this weekend. We'll be at the Reds game on Saturday down in sunny Sarasota. Check the photoblog for the all the helmet sundae action.

Goodyear is a go...

If the city secures financing. The Reds will pack their spring training bags and head to Goodyear, Arizona if the city secures financing. The Reds will need to pony up $30 million. Big Bob has given his nod. Here's more from ye ol' Enquirer.

Gut feeling? We'll be planning March vacations in Arizona in 2010. Werd. Sarasota, you're nice and all... but like all the old ladies on the roads down there... you're way too slow.

Sarasota: Back in the mix

Ed Smith Stadium in Sarasota
Less than a day after declaring Sarasota pretty much long gone, we now have this development:

Sarasota city officials voted 4-1 today to assemble an interlocal agreement in hopes of bringing the Reds back to the table and possibly staying in Sarasota. If the Reds do accept the offer from Goodyear, AZ, it's all basically moot and Sarasota will go searching for another team to fill the void. Today's vote is a very positive sign from the city that seemed to be willing to let the Reds go without a fight. Read more about the vote and what changed at the sun-herald.com.

Florida Governor Charlie Crist is also trying to keep Sarasota and the Reds together. During a stop today in Sarasota, he said that keeping the Reds in Florida is a priority of his. Read more at HeraldTribune.com.
