June 21, 200719 yr They will move Dunn before Griffey. :thumb: Yep, he has more trade value at this point in their careers.
June 21, 200719 yr He does not have a no trade clause in his contract. He is 10/5 guy. 10 years of service, 5 with the same team. That's part of the CBA. It still gives him the right to veto any trade....It's basically the same thing.
June 21, 200719 yr If they packaged Bailey and Griffey in a trade I am pretty sure you would find bigger crowds at a local t ball game...
June 21, 200719 yr I'd give away Josh Hamilton for a bag of baseballs before I'd trade Homer Bailey for anything. Right, but Hamiliton smoked crack so I think you missed the joke.
June 21, 200719 yr No way is Jay Bruce in the MLB in 2008. At least not before September. If Griffey and Dunn are gone?
June 21, 200719 yr Right, but Hamiliton smoked crack so I think you missed the joke. Guilty as charged...good call. :thumb:
June 21, 200719 yr They will move Dunn before Griffey. That screams get fans here and not get better....
June 21, 200719 yr What makes you think that 98?I think it will be much harder to move Griff and his contract at what, 38? Than it will be to move 27 YO Dunn. Griff has deferred money and no team out there is going to trade for a 38 year old injury prone outfielder who they will then have to pay for the next 10 years.
June 21, 200719 yr Nope. He just got to "AA" yesterday....literally. A lot of good talent comes up from AA.

Griff has deferred money and no team out there is going to trade for a 38 year old injury prone outfielder who they will then have to pay for the next 10 years. So you're saying that they'll "be forced" to move Dunn before Griffey? That right? That could well be true. For the record, I still think Junior is the one that ends up getting traded, and not Dunn. They will not trade both...they still have to score some runs in that band-box because goodness knows the opposition will. Having the NL's leading run-scoring outfielder can be an asset in that building. :sssh:

June 21, 200719 yr A lot of good talent comes up from AA. Thanks. Maybe, and I'm just spit-balling here, but perhaps they'll want him to spend a little time seeing some "AAA" pitching next year. If he is on the Reds in April (or May or June) of 2008 I'll heartily accept a rousing dish of "I told you so."
