I've never been opposed to posting links to articles casting Jim Bowden in a negative light. As the Reds GM, I always felt he was incredibly arrogant considering the project in front of him and his lack of success. This was never more true than after the Ken Griffey Jr. signing. It was as if he had won the Nobel Prize for baseball general managers and afterwards, content to rest on his laurels. So in that spirit, here is an article ripping Bowden for how he handled their first round draft pick, Aaron Crow, this year. Crow did not sign by the deadline and next year will be available to all other teams interested. He does make it clear he will not deal with Bowden again. Cheers.
