A tidbit on mlbtraderumors:

According to Ed Price of the Newark Star-Ledger, the Yankees have interest in free agent Kevin Mench for a fifth outfielder role. It'd be a minor league deal. Additionally, the Rangers are considering bringing Mench back into the organization.

Mench, 30, has a .924 career OPS against lefties. He made $3.4MM last year.

I'd sign him to a ML contract if I were the Reds. He fills the RH bat off the bench role quite nicely. Heck, I'd give him 3 million to do it.

HE would be a good pick up, I wanted Ensberg, he could have played first and pinch hit!

Wait why not Shannon Stewart a rigth handed bat that can hit .290 and he is from the Nati.

I am starting a thread on this.

I thought about starting a Shannon Stewart thread as soon as I saw he was a FA since he is from Cincinnati, but unfortunately he doesn't fit... :(

Do we have a helmet big enough for Mench? I think he wears like a size 9 hat. We do however need another right handed bat.
