About Stephen »

I'm in my mid-20's and live in Kentucky and I love the Cincinnati Reds. I've been a Reds fan since I was a boy and there is nothing I'd rather see than the Reds return to the greatness of the Big Red Machine.

I enjoy writing about the club (at http://saultonofswat.wordpress.com), keeping track of young prospects, and being a sarcastic a-hole when the Reds do stupid things.

If you read my blog, don't expect intelligent statistics like "In games where Joey Votto goes 1-5, Brandon Phillips will ground out to 3rd 67% of the time." I'm not smart like that, so set any expectations very low.

Also, if you're a Cubs fan and you don't want to get angry, don't read my blog. I hate the Cubs.

That just about sums it up for me. Hope you enjoy!

Hi Stephen

Here is the sixth installment of my Cooperstown’s Best series, rating the shortstops. This will be my final “blast” for these articles. It makes me feel cheap to pimp my articles, so I gotta stop it. Take a look if you can.
