"HE'S THE DEAL. THEY CALL HIM THE DEAL, BABY."

"HE'S THE DEAL. THEY CALL HIM THE DEAL, BABY."

"The Deal" from Louie G's upcoming record (to be released in April 2010) is produced by Zizzy Mane and will be Jay Bruce's walk-up song this season at GABP. Using "I'm On A Boat" last year, "The Deal" will without doubt be an augmentation. DiamondHoggers.com interviewed Zizzy Mane last month (Check it out here) and he explained the interesting story behind the song.

This will be Bruce's third major league season and so far he's had mixed results. Showing signs of greatness here and signs of impatience there, Bruce's performance this season is essential to the Reds'.

Last season, on July 11, Jay Bruce fractured his wrist making a diving catch during the first inning of a game against the New York Mets. Bruce returned to the Reds two months later. After a dismal season prior to his injury, he finished hitting .375 in his last twelve games. Undeterred by his promising conclusion last year, Bruce described his 2009 season as "embarrassing".

Hopefully, Bruce's 2010 approach at the plate will be distant from Louie G's.

 

The Reds lost their sixth straight game of the spring to the Padres on Tuesday by a final score of 7-5. Reds' Opening Day starter Aaron Harang pitched 4 2/3 innings allowing five runs (four earned) on five hits while striking out six. It was Harang's final start of the spring. Both teams committed three errors each.
