August 9, 201016 yr Author Dickerson had 0 chance of being an everyday player in Cincy. He was behind Gomes, Bruce, Stubbs, and Heisey. This deal gives them more veteran leadership for the stretch run and a solid bat that can spell all 3 OF positions.Dickerson should have been up and playing some in left, in my opinion. Gomes needs some help against righthanders.
August 9, 201016 yr Good move. He gives the Reds some much needed experience. Its a low risk move--Dickerson was not in the Reds long-term plans anyway. It isn't as though they gave up Heisey, Francisco or one of their young arms. Dickerson is nothing more than a spare outfielder.

It isn't as though they gave up Heisey, Francisco or one of their young arms. Dickerson is nothing more than a spare outfielder. That is how I felt about it. I am much happier moving Dicerkson than I am Heisey, which was rumored earlier in the season.
August 9, 201016 yr Is Fransisco getting sent down the move here??? Hope not. They're thin in the infield.
August 9, 201016 yr Is Fransisco getting sent down the move here??? It probably will be, although I'm not real thrilled about them keeping 6 OFs on the active roster, and only 1 backup IF.
August 9, 201016 yr Is Fransisco getting sent down the move here??? It makes the most sense but it's to many OF guys.
August 9, 201016 yr Is Fransisco getting sent down the move here??? If you mean Cordero, yes.... God yes!!!
August 9, 201016 yr Edmonds can play 1st... With all the age on the left side of the infield, they may want to rethink Francisco going away. I guess they bring him back up if needed though. I still really like Edmonds on the club.

I still really like Edmonds on the club. He just seems the most logical choice to make room right now. He would still be a phone call away if needed...
