Baseball Fever National League Cincinnati Reds PDA View Full Version : Danny Graves, Starting Pitcher Chancellor 04-16-2003, 11:23 AM How is the Graves experiment working out? What do you think the long-term implications will be for both Graves and the Reds? Captain Cold Nose 04-16-2003, 11:47 AM He got rocked yesterday. He started well, then it all fell apart. Unlike Ryan Dempster saturday, it wasn't because he couldn't find the plate. Unfortunately, the Reds don't have too many other options. Unless someone can catch fire in the high minors (Chris Reitsma?) they may be stuck with Graves. But the guy deserves a shot.

Captain Cold Nose 05-24-2005, 03:27 AM He needs a change. Any team that takes him is taking a big risk, but one that could pan out if Graves figures out how to get batters out again. nastiboyz 05-24-2005, 05:10 AM I really like danny graves. it think this is very tough for the clubhouse, he was obviously a leader and freind to the whole team. however...there is something wrong with him. He knows it, the reds know it, and it is clear that all the hitters know it. I really hope he pulls out of this for someone. but the reds are going through a bit of a "Shock and Awe" campaign right now, and they have made the point very clear: We do not care how much money we lose, if you do not perform, we will not keep you around! Will it work? We shall have to wait and see Ravenlord 05-24-2005, 11:07 AM

24. Serious Baseball: Danny Graves Serious baseball danny graves. by Frank Bundy III May 29, 2005. It’sa shame when a player, any baseball player, makes a mistake that ends up overshadowing http://www.athomeplate.com/sb3505.shtml

Serious Baseball: Danny Graves by Frank Bundy III May 29, 2005 http://www.baseballreference.com/about/pitch_glossary.shtml So now Graves, a Red for the past 8 seasons, is waiting the mandatory 10 days after being designated by his team where he has to be either traded, released, or out righted to the minors. Here are some other options the Reds could have taken in response to Graves gesture, any of which, or any combination of them for that matter, would be a better option than designation: 1. Suspend/Fine him for the gesture. 2. Move Graves into a middle relief role (after a fine/suspension). Why not put Graves in a middle relief role to see if he can revert back to form without as much pressure upon himself? Why not move Ryan Wagner (3.75 ERA, in 24.0 IP), Kent Mercker (2.61 ERA, in 20.2 IP), or even David Weathers (4.44 ERA in 26.1 IP) into the closers role in Graves place? Making any of these moves would have taken some of the spotlight off of Graves, and given him a situation where he could improve upon his previously poor numbers. 3. Dangle Graves as trade bait (after a fine/suspension).

Chapter Challenge Award to be present at August 29th game Members of the Lou Gehrig Memorial Award Committee will present the Lou Gehrig Award to Danny Graves on Friday, August 29th during pre-game ceremonies of the Reds/Cardinals game. Joining the presenters will be Jean Collett, wife of Ritter Collett who was a Hall of Fame sportswriter covering Reds for the Dayton Daily News for 50 years and long-time chairman of the Gehrig Award Committee. Scores more from Phi Delta Theta will be in the stands to witness the presentation. Cincinnati Reds’ Danny Graves wins 2003 Lou Gehrig Memorial Award OXFORD (June 20, 2003)—Danny Graves, current starting pitcher and former bullpen ace for the Cincinnati Reds, has won this year’s Lou Gehrig Memorial Award, sponsored by the Phi Delta Theta International Fraternity, headquartered in Oxford, Ohio. The award is presented annually by Phi Delta Theta to the Major League Baseball player who best exemplifies the giving character of Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig, who was a member of the Fraternity’s Columbia University chapter. The award was first presented in 1955 and is permanently maintained in Cooperstown. On the field, Graves has been one of the most productive Redleg pitchers in team history. From 2000-2002, he was involved in 117 of the Reds’ 229 victories (51%), including 58% in 2001. He is 38-23 lifetime with 129 saves and a 3.51 ERA. Through last season, Graves had recorded three consecutive years of 30 or more saves and was the team leader in saves during each of the past four seasons. He was a member of the 2000 All-Star team, a season in which he was 10-5 with 30 saves and a 2.56 ERA. Grave’s 470 innings pitched as a reliever, 1997-2002, was third most in the Majors during that six-year span. Converted to a starter late in 2002, he was 1-0 with a 1.89 ERA in four starts. This year, he has continued in a starting capacity and currently holds a 3-2 record.

Graves days as a Red come to an end RECORD: 1-1 ERA: 7.76 SAVES: 10 Reds GM Dan O’Brien : "His performance has been unsatisfactory and unacceptable. It hasn't been up to the standards we've come to expect for the Cincinnati Reds organization. We appreciate Danny's contributions to the organization, and we hope he finds an opportunity with another major league club." Danny Graves : "I always knew this day would come. I didn't think it would be so soon. I changed roles and probably ruined my career. I don't know. I don't have the answers. I felt like I've been given up on. It's a shock to me. If I can recall, I'm not the only closer that has struggled." Reds Fan MungoJer2 : "I have mixed feelings on Graves leaving. He has been a terrible pitcher this year, so I agree that he should not be pitching for the Reds. He should have at least been given an arm exam and sent down to minors. He was hurting the team with his pitching. Graves of course is the all time saves leader for the Cincinnati Reds. Something to be proud of. The Reds though did give Graves more of a chance than probably almost any team in baseball to be a Major League Closer. Graves probably was more suitable as a middle reliever than a closer. But in Cincy he got the chance to close, and had some good years."

Your issue on home grown ballplayers struck me funny. Part of the problem in baseball mediocrity is the scouts . They have a check list for high school and college players and almost never look at players not in the mold. What ever happened to the guy who hits funny but hits .400 or who doesn't blow the ball by batters but wins games? Scouts won't give em a second look. Even Wade Boggs sat for five years in the minors because he wasn't a home run hitter. That may have cost him a thousand hits in the bigs. My son is a good example. He isn't tall enough, doesn't throw in the nineties but wins ball games. He was three and zero in the Junior Olympics in Jupiter Florida. He made the cut for the thirty-six who would make up the final eighteen to represent the USA as the USA Youth National Team in Monterrey, Mexico.

He earned a ton of money in Cincinnati, but he obviously didn't garner enough respect to be told face-to-face when he was let go Monday. "This is like hitting us all in the head with a shovel," Sean Casey told the Dayton Daily News. "The guys love him. This was a poor way to handle it. It's wrong, just wrong."
