I am a freelance writer. I've covered the Cincinnati Reds, Bengals and others since 1992.
I have a background in sales as well. I've sold consumer electronics, advertising and consumer package goods for companies ranging from the now defunct Circuit City to Procter&Gamble.
I have worked as a stats operator for Xavier University, the University of Cincinnati, the College of Mount St. Joe and Colerain High School.
Frost grips Goodyear, Arizona as a stubborn winter tries to put a chill on the boys of summer arriving this morning at the Reds' spring training complex.
There are as many questions as there are hopes and dreams and optimism. All 30 camps in baseball are brimming with confidence.
Will Aroldis Chapman successfully convert to the starting rotation?
Will Sin Soo Choo hit enough to offset the loss of Drew Stubbs' defense?
Is Joey Votto's knee fully recovered?
How is Dusty Baker's health?
Can Billy Hamilton prove that he can be the Reds' future centerfielder?
The question of the day, however, is Scott Rolen going to retire or play another season in Cincinnati.
Early Arrivals Getting Physicals
We are awaiting Walt Jocketty, who is expected to have an answer today.
My talented colleagues (if I am not insulting them by putting myself in that group), Mark Sheldon (MLB.com), John Fay (Cincinnati Enquirer) and I will be meeting Baker at 10 am (noon Cincinnati time).
The Reds signed a pitching prospect from South Australia this morning.
Right handed pitcher Dakota Mitchell is the newest member of the Reds.
Clubhouse Awaiting Pitchers and Catchers.
Mitchell attended the MLB Australian Academy program for the past two years where he was seen by Reds' scouts. He is from Morphett Vale SA, is 6'2" and 190 pounds, and has also played shortstop for the Goodwood Baseball Club in Adelaide.
The Reds have been following Mitchell's progress since the 2010 season.
