Happy Thanksgiving
First and foremost, I am thankful for my family. The importance in which I hold them is well beyond my ability to transcribe it on this blog.
What am I thankful for as a Reds fan?
I am thankful for an organization that truly cares about the fans. I am thankful for a ball park that is like a second home to our family during the summer months.
All Reds fans should be thankful for the players we get to watch on a nightly basis. I appreciate getting to see Joey Votto’s swing, Aroldis Chapman’s fastball and Brandon Phillips flash some leather.
I’ll let the turkey digest a little while longer before I get to the Christmas wish list.
Ain’t (Gold) Glove Grand?
Two Reds were recognized for their defense last night as the National League Gold Glove award winners were announced. Both are very deserving, although one surprised me a little.
The surprise was Joey Votto winning his first Gold Glove. He becomes the first Red to win the award as a first baseman. Votto has been one of the top offensive players in the league for two full years. He has always taken pride in his defense and worked very hard at it. His hard work has finally paid off.
Brandon Phillips takes home his third Gold Glove. He is the best second baseman in Major League Baseball. Period.
