'Dinner on me… the entire year': Cincinnati restaurateur tries to persuade Nick Castellanos to stay with Reds
Cincinnati restaurateur Jeff Ruby has offered his help to the Reds in trying to get free agent Nick Castellanos to stay in town.
Ruby tweeted out a picture of an Enquirer headline that read "Club extends qualifying offer to Castellanos." Ruby tried to sweeten the deal by tweeting Tuesday:
I raise that offer to include dinner on me at our 3 Cincinnati restaurants the entire year.

The three Cincinnati restaurants are Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse, The Precinct and Carlo & Johnny.
While it remains to be seen if that would actually entice the All-Star outfielder to stay in Cincinnati, it certainly would have convinced a couple former Reds.
"I’ll sign that deal!" ex-Reds closer Danny Graves tweeted.
I’ll sign that deal!

"If you would have told me that I’d still be a Red love you big dog," former Reds slugger Todd Frazier replied.
