November 22, 201510 yr He's gone? Who's the gm? Sort of gone. http://bluegrasspreps.com/major-league-baseball/reds-new-general-315559.html
November 22, 201510 yr Sort of gone. http://bluegrasspreps.com/major-league-baseball/reds-new-general-315559.html Not sure what that means. Reds are puzzling at best
November 22, 201510 yr Bruce has 8 teams that he cannot be traded to. NYY Boston Tampa Oakland Twins Marlins Indians Arizona
November 23, 201510 yr Not sure what that means. Reds are puzzling at best After this upcoming season, Jocketty essentially becomes a part time employee. He will basically be an advisor, and Dick Williams will run the show
November 30, 201510 yr No news lends me to believe that it's status quo in RedsLand. Winter meetings are less than a week away. I suspect there will be some action next weekend.
November 30, 201510 yr Winter meetings are less than a week away. I suspect there will be some action next weekend. I hope so but believe it's all just lip service at this point.
November 30, 201510 yr Bruce has 8 teams that he cannot be traded to. NYY Boston Tampa Oakland Twins Marlins Indians Arizona Would be interesting to know the reasoning behind some of those.
November 30, 201510 yr I believe Bowman tweeted out that a lot of FA signings our depending on trades that are available including Chapman and Bruce. I hope we have some deals next week.
November 30, 201510 yr Would be interesting to know the reasoning behind some of those. Sometimes it is due to the stadium or division that they'll be pitching in. Sometimes they don't like the town. Sometimes the state taxes are too high. Sometimes, like in the case of Boston our New York, they know that the team can afford to guarantee any options that the player might have and they use that as leverage to accept the trade. I'm not saying the last one is the case with Bruce but a lot of players list the big market teams for that reason.
December 2, 201510 yr Wouldn't it be funny if we have all this speculation and come Spring Training every single player on this thread's title was wearing a Reds Uniform?
December 2, 201510 yr Wouldn't it be funny if we have all this speculation and come Spring Training every single player on this thread's title was wearing a Reds Uniform? Well that's only 2 players so it wouldn't be a huge shock--depending on what the Reds asking price is.
December 2, 201510 yr I believe the Reds want to trade with Houston. Astros have the best minor league system in MLB right now, but I hope Luhnow (GM) does give up a lot for Chapman, I just feel like the Reds are asking too much for him (this was what was said at the trade deadline and now with the Tigers), plus doesn't he have only one year left on his contract? Being an Astros fan I would love to have Chapman but I would hope if we did get him in a trade he would be willing to sign a multi-year deal but I just can't see that happening, Houston just is not a glamorous type of city like Boston, NY or LA, but we are on the up swing compared to the Reds.

First and likely the last time I think Boston will ever be called glamorous as city.
