The 2007 season of baseball brought a lot of milestones, with several players joining the 500 HR Club, 1 getting his 3,000th hit and of course, Bonds catching Hank Aaron. The 1st milestone I would like to see achieved in 2008 is for Ken Griffey Jr to become the 6th player in history to get to 600 HR's. Now I have been reading a lot of baseball magazines and in several, I have seen a lot of speculating that as soon as he gets HR #600, the Reds are gonna try to move him. I don't buy it because with the off season moves the Reds have made to improve their pitching, they may be in contention for the playoffs all season, so why move a player of Griffey's caliber. One article even named the Atlanta Braves as his destination. I would think the Braves would be looking to get younger rather than older. OK baseball fans, and I know you're out there, let's get the discussion rolling. Does Griffey stay as a Red or not?
