July 27, 201016 yr Starting to get to the point that if this team doesn't add a bat, there's no chance they make the playoffs... What position?
July 27, 201016 yr Walt needs to call up the Royals and get Scott Podsednik. Plug him into CF and that takes care of the leadoff problem. Not sure what I'd do about adding a big bat to the middle of the order. It would have to be in another OF spot or SS.
July 27, 201016 yr What position? I think Stubbs has a real negative effect on this offense right now, maybe Dickerson needs to be brought up and inserted into the leadoff spot and the order redone a little.

He only makes $1,650,000 this year. His stats are pretty good right now. 2010 Stats G AB R H HR RBI BB KO SB BA 92 376 46 116 5 43 29 56 29 0.3085

Especially with the Reds collection of young players.
July 27, 201016 yr If the Phillies are shopping Werth I think he's a guy Cincy should look at as well.
July 27, 201016 yr I'm sure the Royals would let him go for the right price. Especially with the Reds collection of young players. He is 34 but doesn't seem to be slowing down any with 29 SBs.
July 27, 201016 yr He is 34 but doesn't seem to be slowing down any with 29 SBs. I wouldn't expect it to be more than a 2 month thing with him, with the slight possibility of next season. If the trade was made that is.
July 27, 201016 yr I wouldn't expect it to be more than a 2 month thing with him, with the slight possibility of next season. If the trade was made that is. The Royals do have a club option on his contract for 2011.
July 27, 201016 yr The Royals do have a club option on his contract for 2011. Podsednik can void it with 525 PA's, which he's only 104 shy of.
July 27, 201016 yr Posednik is fragile. Can he make it a full season? He played 132 last year and all but 6 games so far this year.
July 27, 201016 yr Posednik is fragile. Can he make it a full season? In 2007, he missed a lot of games due to injury. Since then he hasn't had injury troubles at all.
July 27, 201016 yr Podsednik can void it with 525 PA's, which he's only 104 shy of. As hot as he's been I'd worry about that over the offseason. This team could really use his .352 obp leading off. He's hit .377 in July.
