December 5, 200718 yr It's a possibility.... John Fay is reporting that Krivsky is seriously going after Bedard. They're saying a package of Votto, Bailey, and a minor league prospect may interest the O's....
December 5, 200718 yr Forget NL central favorites. We are going to the World Series. I am all for this.

December 5, 200718 yr I'm just happy they're making an effort this offseason. Krivsky is just trying to keep his job. :lol: In all seriousness, Castellini is not content with just being an average team. It's just not how he does business.
December 5, 200718 yr I'm just happy they're making an effort this offseason. Me too! He is a strikeout king but didn't he get hurt last year? Reds Rumour Rotation:lol: That's hilarious!
December 5, 200718 yr They need to come out of these meetings with some pitching. I say go for it!!!!!!!!!!
December 5, 200718 yr Per CTR... 12:38 a.m. EST: So, from what I'm hearing the Reds, Dodgers, Mets and Mariners are the teams really in the Erik Bedard sweepstakes, but the O's don't feel they must move him. It's going to take three major league-ready prospects or young players -- think Bailey, Votto and someone else. The one rumor I heard was Bailey and Stubbs -- even Reds folks would laugh at that thought. No way that would work. It's going to take Bailey, Votto AND... apparently that third name is going to be big. The Dodgers could be the front-runner, but don't count the Reds out. With Bedard and Cordero additions, they'd certainly be in the hunt in the NL Central, and with Harang and Bedard at the front, not too many teams would want to face them in a playoff series.

December 5, 200718 yr It sure sounds like a big name pitcher is involved, if we make this deal. Sounds like we are dealing a pitcher and then some, for a better pitcher.
December 5, 200718 yr Bedard would be a great pickup, IMO. The numbers he put up in Camden Yards were impressive. In a weak division where it's entirely possible that something like 86 wins would be enough; beefing up the rotation is critical.
