The Reds locked up catcher David Ross for two more years. They’ll be paying him $4.5 million and there’s a team option for 2009 that would make it a three year, $8 million deal.

I like Ross, and there’s no doubt he had a good year in 2006 but it was his first good year after bouncing around the National League. On the other hand, maybe he just needed some consistent playing time to find his stroke. Some guys aren’t suited to the part time thing. I guess we’ll see because Ross will be the main guy in 2007.
