Makes me wonder... when was the last time the REDS made a trade in their own division that involved a "major" player? I guess it wasn't the Morgan-Billingham-Geronimo trade!
Not sure when the Dodgers left the Reds division. But the Reds and Dodgers used to trade alot:

1982 Reds trade Mike Ramsey to Dodgers for Ted Power.
1983 Reds trade Rafael Landestoy for John Franco/Brett Wise.
1989 Reds trade Kal Daniels/Lenny Harris for Mariano Duncan/Tim Leary.
1991 Reds trade Eric Davis/Kip Gross for Tim Belcher/John Wetteland.
1998 Reds trade Jeff Shaw for Paul Konerko/Dennys Reyes.
2000 Reds trade Ken Lutz (minors) for Juan Castro.

Some big names being traded in the 90's.
