The Cincinnati Reds bullpen in 1990 was nasty, with three hard-throwing relievers ready to come into any game and shut down their opponents. Rob Dibble was (and still is) the most vocal and popular of the group. He played in two All-Star games, 1990 and 1991, was the MVP of the 1990 NLCS over the Pirates, and came in second in the league in saves in 1991.
Arm surgery was needed in 1994, Dibble was never the same. After six seasons with the Reds, he played with the Brewers and White Sox in 1995. At the end of the season he signed with the Cubs, but never pitched an inning. In 1996, Dibs signed with the Florida Marlins, but had to sit out due to injury.
Dibble can still be seen and heard on the airwaves. He has worked with ESPN, FoxSports, XM Radio, and served as color commentator for the Washington Nationals this past season on MASN.
And now he even has his own clothing line. Was that really necessary?
