I'm looking for position players I'll post it when I find it.
Outfielders:
Bobby Abreu
Milton Bradley
Eric Byrnes
Jose Cruz, Jr.
Mike Cameron
Jermaine Dye
Darin Erstad
Cliff Floyd
Shawn Green
Jose Guillen
Torii Hunter
Kenny Lofton
Trot Nixon
Corey Patterson
Aaron Rowand
Shannon Stewart
Brad Wilkerson
Rondell White
Wonder how many would fit the Reds plans?
I fantasize about Torii Hunter roaming center for the Reds. I would have never said that until I went and saw him play at Yankee Stadium. You have to see in person how many balls he gets to to appreciate his defense. That being said the Reds will never spent the money to get him.
I honestly don't see the Reds spending big money on a free agent outfielder. They are more likely to spend it on a starting pitcher.
Mike Cameron and Scott Linebrink sound good. Especially if Griffey gets traded this offseason.
how far of a long shot is Zambrano being brought into Cincy? i know he is probably going to cost a lot of money but i would die to see him pitch for the Reds
The reds would have to go way over his market value, which is already very high. I would say it is more of a no shot.Quote:

1. Harang
2. Arroyo
3. Lopez/Byrd
4. Bailey
5. Belisle/Livingston/Cueto/FA maybe?
Also, where can I find the list of all releivers available?

He didn't exactly have a big signing last off-season. I would be surprised if he did sign Zambrano. It doesn't seem Krivsky want to pay for quality free agents; he wants to shop at the bargain bin.:(

Krivsky had to shop at the bargain bin becuase of the little money Bob gave him, I don't think we'll sign Zambrano but I wouldn't be shocked to see a semi big signing or a big trade. This franchise and fanbase needs a huge move to get revived. I think Bob knows that.
big Z isnt coming to Cincy...the Cubs wont let him go even with the new ownership
