Red's announcers

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

I think a lot of Marty love is based off the past and heavy nostalgia. He's become a angry old man the last decade or so. If the Reds ever have a good player, you can be sure he's going to hate him. I think the problem was Marty became a Hall of Famer while still doing to the job and then Joe died. Those two combined pretty much left him unchecked as far as ego and anger goes.

Thom is pretty terrible to listen to TV broadcast-wise. Dude loves to gush about the other team, and loves to talk about anything any everything besides baseball, doubly so for the current game being played.

Give me a Welsh/Day combo. Welsh is a font of knowledge as far as insight to the game and it's rules-wise, and Day is a font of knowledge Reds players-wise.

Honestly, the biggest downside of Day being in the booth sometimes is that then he's not on the field to interact with the players in the dugout/after the game, and they seem to open up to him a lot more than players normally do in interviews.
