I can see that from the Marlins point of view.
From the Reds point of view, I don't put Bruce in.
Stanton's fielding looked horrible when we were in MIA. Maybe that's not the norm.
Anyhow, I don't see the upgrade from Bruce to Stanton being huge enough to toss in a guy like Cingrani too.
Heck, with Bruce's contract and defense, I probably don't do Bruce for Stanton straight up.
Yea, I'm prepared for people to say that I'm foolish, but Bruce fits this team well.
[Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob

I feel like you guys are forgetting that we once had Mike Stanton before and it didn't go so well, I even reported it when it happened!
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
This just in. Cardinals hear of a Reds/Marlins trade brewing and slip in and get Stanton.
In all seriousness, if it happened, what if Walt totally surprised us and it was Cueto for Stanton straight up? Hmmm. 2 guys coming off the DL.

...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

I've raved and applauded the Reds farm system supplying their major league team dozens of times.
But the fact is, the major league team is pretty much full at every position but a few, and the minor league system is momentarily drained from doing so.
There are few, if any, major league ready prospects in the system.
