What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

We know the Reds are hunting for a 5th starter to build compitition with Ramirez, Claussen, Belisle, & Dumatrait. Also the Reds have be looking for a Rich Aurilia type player to not only platoon with Hatteberg at 1st but to play 3rd, 2nd, and purhaps OF. So I thought why not see what is left in the FA market that might fall into the Reds budget.

Starters:

Tony Armas Jr.
Shawn Estes
Rick Helling
Jason Marquis
Brian Moehler
Mark Mulder
Tomo Ohka
Russ Ortiz
Chan Ho Park
Mark Redman
Aaron Sele
John Thompson
Steve Trachsel

INF/OF Platoons

Aaron Boone
Jeremy Burnitz
Jeff Cirillo
Darin Erstad
Shea Hillandbrand
Aubrey Huff (maybe..might be pushing the budget)
Ryan Klesko
Mark Loretta
John Mabry
Doug Mientkiewicz
Phil Nevin
Trot Nixon
Eduardo Perez
Fernando Tatis
Craig Wilson
Chris Woodward

What do you think is possible? What do you wish for out of these?

Tomo Ohka would look good in one those snazzy new Reds uni's.

4th place! and excuses

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

Nope, 4th place and tear down. 2003 redux. Wayne is basing the Reds rebuilding around Bailey, if he blows out his arm, Wayne is fired lol......:beerme:

Promise?

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

I'd take Wilson and Ohka. Although Ohka could cost 10 mil/yr, considering what Lilly and Meche got...Ohka stats are pretty similar to both of them, if not better...Not to mention he's slightly more a of groundball pitcher...If he could be had for 3 yr/24 mil, would you do it?

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

Ohka yes for 3yrs 24mil

My avatar feels slighted ;)

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

Thats about all that was available this year....at any point in time.

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

The bolded are the only ones the Reds should pursue, IMO.

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

I agree except add Marquis

Re: What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..
 

Marquis is a better hitter than half the reds
