Has he ever been right on one of these predictions?

 

He made a pretty good one about the Latos trade. Said the Reds got robbed. :lol: :rolleyes:

So Jocketty said he has no intention of trading BP. Problem with that is, it's not your call Walt. Bob wants him gone, he'll be gone, simple as that.

Are they trading him to Japan???

I have no clue what they're doing, or going to do. I'm saying, if the owner wants him gone, he'll be gone. Nothing more, nothing less.

Owner can want to his hearts content. Not much he can do without a trade partner...

No doubt, however at least 3 teams have inquired if we're to believe mlbtraderumors.com. Makes me think if he really wants to move him, it'll get done.

They have to get some value for him. They can't just give him away.

More Jocketty on BP: "I know he'd like to finish his career here. Things happen. We'll see." #Reds

 

 

So he will trade him when he finds the right deal.

That isn't their mindset. Freeing up $52 million IS getting value for him.

I agree with that mindset too. In a perfect world that money frees up enough money for Choo. Hamilton can play 2nd in that scenario.

Choo is getting more than 4 years and more than $52M.

Correct, but that would free up $13 million per year to spend toward Choo if they wanted. Choo is out of the Reds price range though IMO.

If you're the Reds would you rather spend that money on Choo or Bailey and Latos?

From what I hear Bailey will be traded. I would always spend money on top of rotation pitcher over a player like Choo.

I think they trade Homer and BP (not together, mind you), and lock up Latos to a long-term deal. Hopefully they get a solid bat/high level prospect in return for Homer. :idunno:
