That showed me the reds weren t a first class operation to begin with Parker told the Magazine. That goes Back to the old communications thing. Does t he have a Telephone he can Call too Rose responded when asked by reporters monday night in los Angeles where the reds played the dodgers.

I did t play the game before the All Star break so i could get four straight Days off and rest my sore knee and Back. The second half i sensed something was wrong. Pete kept his distance and did t say much to me the rest of the Rose responded i wish i had the Power Parker thinks i have. I can t make trades by myself. I have say in them and they would t have traded Parker if i did t want them to. But i m not the Only Guy in the front office who said Trade him if he feels i changed after the All Star break Well i can t change the Way he feels.
