Because how can you not love a baseball player named "Bubba"?
Trent reports that Bubba has accepted assignment to Louisville. So has former Yankee and Red Sock Mark Bellhorn. They report to minor league camp tomorrow.
Reds fans seem to think there's a good chance Bubba will be called up sometime this season. I'm not so sure. While the Reds outfield is pretty injury prone, Bubba's out of options now, so Deno and Hopper might be ahead of him on the depth chart. (Yes, I'm fully expecting them to start in Louisville, too.)
He'll probably be a starter in Louisville, so at least he'll get a lot more playing time. (And too bad Val the Bubba Crosby groupie is no longer an intern with the Bats. ;-)
