	Paul Daugherty: Jerry Narron
		Narron almost seems clinically delusional (truly) when he rambles on about "the small things" and the Reds perform in no such manner...
		Narron is not a rah-rah, get-in-your-face, tell the media something I don't share with the players type of manager and to a certain degree, let's be happy for that.
		If Narron required Dunn to sprint back and forth from the dugout, it wouldn't win additional game for us, and more than likely you would be writing a column questioning Narron's focus and qualifications to manage.

		Jerry Narron notched his 110th victory as the Reds manager on Aug. 20.
		Many fans, it seems, can't tell Narron is doing a good job when he obviously is. Then again, a recent Harris poll showed that half of Americans still think Iraq held weapons of mass destruction in 2003, so we probably shouldn't be too surprised by what we hear in the street.
		Narron kept the Reds afloat, allowed Encarnacion to learn without exposing him to damaging mistakes and threw him back in the fire when he was ready to help.

		At the time, Narron was 23-year-old rookie catcher with the Yankees.
		Narron, who roomed with reliever Ron Davis at the time, remembered Davis answering the phone in their apartment, "and, to be honest, I can't even remember who called us (with the news),'" said Narron.

		Named after his grandfather, the first of eight members of the Narron clan to play professional baseball, he is the latest in a long line of Narron ballplayers from the tobacco fields of North Carolina.
		Narron saw himself as a first-baseman as well as a pitcher, a fantasy the Pirates didn't bother dispelling, but the southpaw was destined exclusively for the mound.
		Again splitting time between the rotation and the relief corps, Narron went 10-4 with a 3.48 ERA and a 75:19 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 103 and a third innings.

	Narron setting clear path for Reds
		Narron has spent well over half his life in baseball since the Yankees made him a sixth-round draft pick in 1974.
		Although Narron had superstar Alex Rodriguez on those teams, there was little in the way of a supporting cast.
		Maybe that's why Narron's style of operation already appears to be in sync with new general manager Wayne Krivsky's -- a longtime former scout who is entering his 30th year in the game.

		Then, with two weeks left, Jerry went up to him and said, sorry we have used you all over, the last two weeks, you will only throw when the game is on the line.
		It's probably an exaggeration to say I defended Narron around here, but my contention that in-game strategy palls in importance compared to maintaining a clubhouse vibe was as good a compliment as he received at some points last summer.
		Narron and Aurilia were professional enough to keep the clubhouse from devolving into a fight club a la John the Gibbon in Toronto, although I still contend that Shea Hillenbrand is an ass for posting "The ship is sinking!" on the clubhouse bulletin board.

	The Big Red Mechanic: Narron costs us another one
		Jerry Narron, you my friend have just found your way onto my hit list.
		I am disgusted, and this is my very last post until a) Narron is fired or miraculously vanishes or b) the Reds somehow seize first place, which seems like a real longshot after today's debacle.
		I'm not sure if I'd be THAT harsh on Jerry, considering where we were in previous years compared to where we are today (of course a lot of other people are involved in that equation).
