November 19, 201015 yr I think Podsednik could help the Reds but I don't think we're going to part with Jonny Gomes. The two in a platoon type situation would make for an interesting lineup. I'm all for Posednik if he brings his women!

I think you could start Gomes most nights then bring in Podsednik in the late innings for his speed and defense.

December 2, 201015 yr johnfayman #Reds will tender offers to Votto, Bruce, Cueto, Volquez, Bray, Burton. Jocketty: Burton came back and showed good arm strength at the end
December 3, 201015 yr ^ I'd imagine he will retire. For what it's worth, I asked someone with the Reds about it a few weeks ago and they said that he wants to come back and they thought he would. Edited December 3, 201015 yr by Capernicus41
December 3, 201015 yr For what it's worth, I asked someone with the Reds about it a few weeks ago and they said that he wants to come back and they thought he would. Don't get me wrong I hope he CAN and can be productive but at his age I am not going to count on either.
December 3, 201015 yr Don't get me wrong I hope he CAN and can be productive but at his age I am not going to count on either. I agree with you. I think he is more valuable off the field with the Reds. Look at how much he helped Bruce within a few days after arriving with the Reds. Also just that club house impact he has, so valuable with a young team.
December 3, 201015 yr Reds extend Bronson Arroyo. 3 years / 35 million. I'm not sure how I feel about this. He's been great for the Reds, but at the same time they need to lock up young players and that's a lot of money for a guy like Arroyo.

He's been great for the Reds, but at the same time they need to lock up young players and that's a lot of money for a guy like Arroyo. It's really only a 2 year extension since he was already under contract for the upcoming season. He is now signed thru 2013 per Rosenthal. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2010/12/reds-to-extend-bronson-arroyo.html
December 3, 201015 yr I don't really have a problem with it. They might have over paid a little but I wanted to keep him around.
December 3, 201015 yr By extending his contract, the Reds probably added to his trade value after this upcoming season. Now he'll have 2 years left when we trade him next offseason.
