The Reds recently announced coaching changes to a few of their minor league affiliates. Some new and familiar faces take over roles within the organization. Here's a rundown…
AA-PENSACOLA: On the heels of leading the Pensacola Blue Wahoos to their first playoff berth, Pat Kelly returns as manager for a second season. Kelly is joined by major league veteran Danny Darwin in his first season as Pensacola's pitching coach, while Alex Pelaez returns for his third year as the team's hitting coach.
Advanced-A DAYTONA: Pitching Coach Tom Brown and Hitting Coach Travis "Gookie" Dawkins have joined the staff alongside returning Manager Eli Marrero and Athletic Trainer Kyle Utne. Daytona's 2015 Pitching Coach, Tony Fossas, has been promoted to Cincinnati Reds Pitching Coordinator.
R-BILLINGS: Ray Martinez will serve as field manager of the Billings Mustangs for the 2016 season. Martinez replaces Dick Schofield, who was promoted to manage the Dayton Dragons of the Class-A Midwest League.

Hoping to have two new BOR Podcasts this week in order to help you stay on that treadmill! Stay tuned!
Just like many of you, I binged on Netflix's Making a Murderer over the weekend…
That's all for now. More in a bit.
Happy New Year!!
Before we get started with our "Post Chirstmas Post," I want to recognize some of the great baseball people we lost over the last few days.
First, Reds Hall of Famer Jim O'Toole left us on Saturday at the age of 78.
Reds Hall of Fame Operations Manager Chris Eckes provided us this overview of O'Toole's career:
A Chicago native who adopted Cincinnati as his hometown after spending nine of his ten Major League seasons as a Red, Jim O'Toole was a fixture at Reds events of all types and sizes throughout his post-playing career. No day was more special to Jim and his expansive family than Opening Day. Jim was the Reds starting pitcher in three Opening Day contests and won two of them. Each year, dozens of members of the O'Toole clan would attend the Reds' first game of the season.
On December 26, 2015, Jim O'Toole lost his lengthy and courageous battle with cancer, passing away at his home a day after celebrating Christmas with his family. He was 78 years old.
One of the Reds' top starting pitchers in the 1960s, O'Toole spent only one season in the minor leagues before making his Reds debut in September of 1958. He quickly developed into one of the anchors of a Reds pitching staff that became one of the game's best.
A left-handed pitcher, O'Toole won at least sixteen games each season from 1961-1964, winning a career high nineteen in the Reds' 1961 National League Championship season. O'Toole's victory total ranked third in the National League in 1961 and his ERA of 3.10 was the league's second best. His performance earned him the starting assignment in Game 1 of the 1961 World Series against the Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
The starting pitcher for the National League in the 1963 All-Star Game, O'Toole was a 17-game winner that season. He was a 17-game winner again in 1964, posting a career-best 2.66 ERA for a Reds team that finished two games short of winning its second pennant in four seasons.
O'Toole won 94 games over the course of his 1958 – 1966 Reds career, a total bested by only five left-handed pitchers in franchise history. He was inducted into the Reds Hall of Fame in 1970 in his first year of eligibility.
The baseball world also learned yesterday of the passing of long-time St. Louis sportswriter Joe Strauss. Joe lost his battle with leukemia at the age of 54. I'll always remember Joe as a fixture in the Great American Ball Park pressbox when the Reds hosted the Cardinals.
Although I didn't know Joe that well, I did appreciate his wit and wisdom and dry sense of humor; and he was always very kind and friendly to those of us in the Reds media relations department. I know for a fact there a several of us here in Cincinnati who are going to miss Joe.
Braves coach Bobby Dews and former big league star Dave Henderson also left us over the weekend.
My most vivid memory of Dews was watching him while I was on the Reds ground crew tirelessly hit fungos during batting practice. I don't think I ever remember an image of Dews without a fungo bat in his hand. Dews was an icon in the Braves organization and Better Off Red sends its most sincere condolences to his family, friends and fans.
Gosh, how many Dave Henderson baseball cards did I have? Countless. That's how I was first introduced to him and his unique smile. "Hendu" finally became a real person to me when I saw highlights of him hitting that improbable home run off Donnie Moore in the ALCS so long ago. He became a player to be wary of (and respected) when he joined the Athletics and squared off against our Reds in the 1990 World Series. It saddens me that he left us at the young age of 57. Better Off Red sends its condolences to the family, friends and fans of "Hendu."
So many of us in and out of the game appreciate what all four of these guys contributed to our great sport and we won't forget them. Rest in peace, fellas.
In happier news, Better Off Red gave you folks an additional few days to participate in the final day of the 2015 Umpteen Days of Christmas. Our final day randomly-selected winner is Patty Heitzman. She correctly answered that Gimbys and Macys were the competing department stores in the original Miracle on 34th Street.
Thanks to all of you who participated in the 2015 Umpteen Days of Christmas! It was fun and we had some great prizes to give away, thanks to all of the gracious departments in the Reds front office.
For those of you who haven't made it out to the Holy Grail Banks for a Tuesday night filled with Reds Hot Stove League and Better Off Red Baseball Trivia action – you're really missing out. Let me give you an example of what I'm talking about…
This past Tuesday (the 22nd) after Marty and Thom hosted a live episode of the Reds Hot Stove League radio show and before we took the stage to begin BOR Baseball Trivia, a gentleman named Britt Denny requested a few minutes to propose to his girlfriend, Laura Kelch. It was our first live marriage proposal!
Laura is the daughter of Reds broadcaster Jim Kelch and I can promise you that Britt did indeed get permission from Jim before popping the question. It added to a great/memorable night at the Holy Grail Banks. I hope you'll join us next Tuesday, January 5th for Reds Hot Stove League/BOR Baseball Trivia!
And here's a photo of Tuesday's night's BOR Trivia participants…
That's all for now. More in a bit.
Happy holidays and expect good news!
The Reds have selected the contracts of RHP Stephen Johnson, RHP Sal Romano and RHP Robert Stephenson and signed to a 1-year Major League contract through the 2016 season RHP Blake Wood. The 40-man roster is at 38 players.
Johnson, 24, on August 20 was acquired from the Giants in exchange for OF Marlon Byrd. Johnson was selected by SF in the sixth round of the June 2012 first-year player draft.
Romano, 22, was selected by the Reds in the 23rd round of the June 2011 first-year player draft. He enters the 2016 season rated the ninth-best prospect in the organization.
Stephenson, 22, was selected by the Reds in the first round (27th overall) of the June 2011 first-year player draft. For the third straight season he is rated the organization's top prospect and in 2015 led all Reds minor league pitchers with 140 strikeouts (140ip).
Wood, 30, spent the 2015 season with the Pirates' Class AAA affiliate at Indianapolis, where he was a mid-season International League All-Star. He led the IL in saves (29), games finished (46) and highest strikeouts/9 innings ratio among relievers (10.74) while ranking second in the league in apps (57).
The Reds Hot Stove League show and Better Off Red Baseball Trivia returns to the Holy Grail Banks on Tuesday, November 24 (TOMORROW)!
Reds staffers will hold a prize raffle exclusive to those participating in Trivia on Tuesday. Proceeds will benefit Reds Season Sales Manager Chris Herrell and his family. Chris is battling Stage IV Lymphoma and everything we can do to help would be greatly appreciated. Let's all get together Tuesday for the biggest BOR Baseball Trivia yet!
Long-time Reds beat writer John Fay (@Johnfayman) joins me on this week's episode of the Better Off Red Podcast! Be sure to tune in this Thursday to Better Off Red (ramsey.mlblogs.com).

Congratulations to kcnaeou1978, who was randomly chosen as this week's Baseline Items prize winner!
kc's question was:
What do you see are the biggest missing pieces for the Reds to get back to playoffs?
To answer, I'd like to see the team solidify its bullpen, add some power to the bench and continue to be creative in adding "analytic-friendly" players with "high-character" players.
Many of you had great questions and comments on Tuesday's blog post. I'll continue to answer/address here on BOR in the coming days. Thanks for the participation!
From the Reds 2015 Season in Review…
SETTING RECORDS: Joey Votto established modern franchise records for walks (143), number of games reaching base at least twice (107) and total number of times reaching base via hit, walk or HBP (319)…he broke his own records, all set in 2013 (135 walks, 105g reaching twice, 316 total times on base)…from 7/10-7/28, he reached base safely at least twice via hit, walk or hit by pitch in 15 consecutive apps, also a single-season franchise record (24-48, .500, 4 2b, 4hr, 9rbi, 17bb, 2hbp, .833slg, .642obp)…the club's previous single-season mark of 13 such games was shared by Joe Kelley (1903), Johnny Temple (1958), Pete Rose (1967) and Adam Dunn (2002)…from 8/11-10/2, Votto reached base safely via hit, walk or HBP in 48 consecutive games (55-154, .357, .528obp), tying Pete Rose's single-season modern franchise record (6/12-8/2, 1978)…Votto's 48-game on-base streak was the longest single-season streak in the Major Leagues since Kevin Millar reached safely in 52 straight in 2007 (6/20-8/25) and the longest in the NL since Barry Bonds' 58-game streak in 2003…Votto reached base safely in 144 of his 158 apps overall, 2 shy of his 2013 single-season club record of 146g…he led the Major Leagues in all of the above statistical references.
Hope to have a big Better Off Red announcement soon. Keep your eyes (and ears) open!
Expect good news,
Hi folks! I'm happy to be back here at Better Off Red Headquarters after spending a gorgeous autumn "staycation" at home in Cincinnati. This is absolutely my most favorite time of the year and I must say, the Queen City is no slouch when showing off her Fall wardrobe.
In addition to the incredible Bengals game I saw yesterday, I've spent a lot time glued to the TV set watching Postseason baseball. None of the new Fall television shows can quite capture drama like Major League Baseball in October. The Astros/Royals series is my favorite so far, followed by Cubs/Cardinals. And yes, I did see the "Utley Slide."
Speaking of Postseason baseball, my colleague Larry Herms and I have once again been selected to work the NLCS for MLB. Not sure yet in which city we'll work, but we've been assigned to games six and seven (if necessary). I have yet to visit Citi Field, so I wouldn't mind seeing the Mets advance.
Here are a few Baseline Items to catch you up on while I was away…

Police hunt failed child abductor
Relevant offers
The mother of a five-year-old boy who escaped an attempted kidnapping in Greenhithe has called on police to track down the culprit.
Police say the boy was grabbed as he was walking home from school near the intersection of Greenhithe Rd and Tauhinu Rd at around 3.20pm on Monday October 15.
Detective Constable Hayden Walker, of the North Shore CIB, said the boy was walking just metres behind his mother when someone, driving what has been described as a white ''ice cream truck'', got out of their vehicle to approach him.
Walker said the boy struggled free and ran to his mother who later alerted police.
A caucasian male, said to be about 40-years-old and with dark curly hair is wanted in relation to the abduction attempt.
The man was described to police as walking with a distinct gait, possibly due to a disability.
Greenhithe School principal Peter Marshall said the boy was approached about 10 minutes walk from the school gates, but he was unsure whether he was a pupil at the school.
An email alerting parents had been sent out and Marshall was waiting on any updates from police.
"As far as I know nothing like this has ever happened here, it is a relatively free area. Fortunately the boy was able to get free," he said.
"Hopefully this will scare him away and we won't see him again."
Police are calling on anyone with information to call North Shore CIB on 477 5107 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

I am a magician operating in the East Texas area. The last time I bought stage money this good was 15 to 20 years ago at a theatrical supply store in Houston. I doubt it would fool anyone up close, but from the stage it does look real.
Kids would probably like it as play money.

Take a look at the insider selling too. I counted 7 different officers selling on this last pop up.
Pumpers are hoping that Warburg Pincus will buy it out.
Agreed. It's all manipulation on both sides. This is a failing company whose original college (Ashford, in Clinton, Iowa) is shutting down this semester. In addition, its other brand (University of the Rockies) is barely functioning.

Kind Of Genius Or Is It Just Us? Galoshes For Your Heels
While we otherwise eye roll at gimmicky fashion items that seem to solve all our problems — Pajama Jeans, 'nough said — we halted at a little possible fashion savior called Grace Carter. Like those flimsy over-the-shoe galoshes we remember hiding in our dads' closets, these wannabe booties serve the same purpose. Yes, they're galoshes for your stilettos…because last time we checked suede pumps are not waterproof.
The premise of the product is quite simple. It's a faux bootie cover in a flat, a heel, and yes ladies, even leopard that zips over your non-weather-resistant shoes. Wear the sleeve while you're outside and then slip them off when you arrive at your destination. While we're not completely sold on the idea just yet — where do we put the slush-covered slip-ons once we're inside? In our party clutch?! — we must admit we're pretty impressed by the practical solution that never forces us to style pencil skirts with wellies ever again.
Check out the so-crazy-it-might-just-work product in action below, and let us know if you think they're kind of brilliant or more "thanks, but no thanks."

Mix: iPod shipments, Album sales, Macworld Expo, Sales growth
Bloomberg reports that Apple's iPod shipments "probably dropped in the third quarter from the second [from 5.31 million to 5.29 million units], the first decline in more than two years and a sign the surge in demand for the music players may be waning."
U.S. music fans downloaded 158 million songs from services like Apple's iTunes Music Store during the first half of the year, compared with 55 million in the year-ago period, according to a recent SoundScan report.
The Boston Herald says that iPod accessories and associated gear will "dominate at least 10 percent of exhibit space" and "nearly a quarter of all conferences" at Macworld Expo in Boston this week.
In further pessimistic news that iPod sales may have plateaued, BusinessWeek says that sales growth is expected to cool from 234% in 2005 to 18% in 2006. "With every passing quarter, the company that set the music world on fire with the iPod is in greater need of an encore," the publication says.

I agree that feathered dinosaurs might seem to a joke, but the reality is, if you were facing one, you'd be cacking yourself, they're faster and much more formidably armed than you. Kangaroos and ostriches might appear silly, but they kicked people to death before. Embarrassing or not, the truth is that without our ability to create and use cars, guns, knives and even wear clothes, we'd be almost utterly useless even facing up to a mouse or a wasp in are natural weapons-free state. The problem is with conditioning-for decades books, games and portraits on dnosauria were all, bar a few really small ones, all depicted them as hairless medium-large to ginormous reptiles, and we're used to it, but the reality is that many now seem to be somewhat feathered, but I don't think the films should be "updating" their misnamed velos that are actually Deinonychus in this way now, as that would be almost changing a species in front of our eyes-and they've already lied about its size, lifestyle and misnamed it! Plus aren't they dominating these movies more than enough-you'd swear they were only five species out there that mattered for these films. I think if they want to get current and feature some feathered dinos, they should include some species they haven't done, or just mention it in a few conversations.
As most horror films are about dispensing disbelief-at least the best ones are and they do it pretty easily, that's not a problem, besides in no actuality would a dinosaur, feathered or otherwise, attack a person as they'd never meet. But a feathered dinosaur gutting us wouldn't actually be any dumber than the Gallimimus herd running past Neill an the two kids rather than trampling them like any large animal would if they were in the way, or that stupid Tyrannosaurus appearing in the visitor lobby at the movie's end without stomping its way noisily there or bringing down a wall and, dumber, going for the two dinos that have the actors surrounded, rather than the people themselves. Talk about a movie painting itself into a corner. A reboot (unwarranted as it is) could at least tidy up that stupid ending.

New answers tagged macro-lenses
I use a 180mm macro myself for insects, but a 90mm macro for anything else. 150mm is better than a 105mm as far as working distance goes, if the 105mm is better er not is questionable, since all macro (1:1) glasses I have ever uses where top notch. I'll would go for the 150mm but 180mm is even better for insects that is.
Macro lenses are optimized for close-up photography and small f-stops (because depth of field is reduced the closer you get to a subject, so small f-stops (larger numbers) are usually required). They will focus closer than non-macro lenses. They work quite well for everyday photography, too. However, they are usually not "fast" lenses, quite often around f4. ...
I've used these setups on both DX and FX bodies I used to shoot a Sigma 180mm Macro for insect and flower photography. It is an amazing lens but it was pretty much dedicated to tight closeups or long telephoto so in the end it is really jut wastes space in my camera bag. Now I used my Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 with a 2x Teleconverter and a a set of extension ...

Mother Nature must be a football fan. How else can you explain the dip in temperatures which occurred just in time for the start of pre-season football practice in Kershaw County last Friday.
SUMTER – In a move akin to taking a six-cylinder engine out of a car and replacing it with one with four cylinders, Jake Brazell was told to scrap the fastball and concentrate more on his off-speed pitches as he prepared to take the mound to face Florence in Tuesday's South Carolina American Legion State Baseball Tournament contest.
SUMTER -- Watching as Post 17 lost its lead to Inman in Sunday's second round of the South Carolina American Legion Baseball Tournament, starting pitcher Grey Hoke smashed his plastic Gatorade bottle to the floor of the first base dugout at Riley Park.
SUMTER – There were two ways in which the Kershaw County American Legion baseball team could have responded to Sunday's gut-wrenching 10-9, 10-inning loss (see story, Page 9) to Inman in the second round of the South Carolina American Legion State Tournament.
SUMTER -- Kershaw County Post 17 staved off elimination in the South Carolina American Legion State Tournament with a 7-3 win over Chapin-Newberry on Monday afternoon at Riley Park.
After suffering a 10-9, 10-inning loss to Inman on Sunday, the Kershae County Post 17 American Legion baseball team fell into the elimination bracket in the double-elimination event.
The South Carolina Senior State American Legion Tournament continues today through Wednesday at Riley Park in Sumter.
SUMTER --- When you are in new territory, you sometimes like to feel your way around before you get comfortable.
As he was heading home in the wee hours of Friday morning from Thursday's evening's baseball game at Georgetown, Kershaw County American Legion baseball team pitching coach Will Dorton stopped by a gas station to fill his car's tank. While there, Dorton, who still had his Post 17 uniform on, had a local police officer come up to him asking how the team did and who was pitching in that night's third game.
The South Carolina Senior State American Legion Tournament begins Saturday at Riley Park in Sumter. Here is all the information you will need as to the event:
Kershaw County will make its long-awaited American Legion State Tournament debut on Saturday when Post 17 takes on Rock Hill in the third (scheduled for 4:30 p.m.) game at Riley Park in Sumter.

Three-game weeks are not supposed to be this taxing.

First we had "shovel ready" projects, then "shovel ready" healthcare and now "shovel ready" education. Time for a little less "shovel ready" and a lot more planning, testing and preparation.

The military wing of Palestinian resistance group Hamas on Monday vowed to take action against whoever threatened Hamas, saying it had upgraded its rocket capabilities and identified vulnerabilities in Israel's defenses.
"Whoever confronts Hamas is taking the side of the unjust and will be subject to strikes," Hammam Nesman, a leading member of the Ezzeddin al-Qassam Brigades, told a press conference in the northern Gaza Strip.
"We are not weak… and we're running out of patience," he said.
Although Nesman did not name the enemies in question, the warning came only days after an Egyptian court banned all the group's activities in Egypt.
Hamas is an ideological offshoot of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, the group from which ousted president Mohamed Morsi hails. Since 2007, the Palestinian faction has governed the next-door Gaza Strip.
Relations between Egypt and Hamas deteriorated sharply following Morsi's ouster last summer, with the military-backed interim authorities accusing the group of backing its ideological parent in Egypt.
A number of Hamas members have been charged in two ongoing criminal cases against Morsi for alleged espionage and jailbreak. Hamas has repeatedly denied the accusations.
Nesman also said his group had managed to upgrade its rocket capabilities and identify Israeli strategic weaknesses.
"Hamas is able to fatally hit Israel and move the battle to its heart," he asserted.
In late 2012, an Egypt-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas ended eight days of cross-border fighting in which scores of Gazans were killed.
