    No, they really didn't. They did trade for Maxwell though. Referring to him as a "bat"....not so much. :O)

    Re: Official Trade Deadline Thread

    So is there ANY chance the Reds slid one in at 3:59pm to say they did something?

    I really don't like relying on a 36 year old guy coming back from a seperated shoulder being the difference maker.

    I guess we really have until the end of August, they just have to clear waivers.

    I double-checked, and winning the division would also automatically enter them into the playoffs.

    80 pages can be summarized as follows:
    Do you think the Reds will get an impact player? Cubs moved someone. Baltimore got someone. Walt is doing nothing- is he blind. Do you want Marlon Byrd? Cardinals are a great organization. Texas might want a bat to replace Cruz. Rios? Pirates? bicker bicker bicker. Stanton. This is a slow deadline. 2nd wild card. Reds inqure about someone. What why would we want him? Would you do Yorman for Byrd? Do you think the Reds will get an impact player? Stanton? Cubs moved someone. Baltimore got someone. Walt is doing nothing- is he blind. Do you want Marlon Byrd? Texas might want a bat to replace Cruz. bicker bicker bicker. This is a slow deadline. 2nd wild card. Cardinals are a great organization. Rios? Pirates? Reds inqure about someone.

Cardinals are a great organization. Do you want Marlon Byrd? Rios? Pirates? Texas might want a bat to replace Cruz. bicker bicker bicker. This is a slow deadline. 2nd wild card. Reds inqure about someone. What why would we want him? Would you do Yorman for Byrd? Red Sox got Garza. Stanton? Maxwell is a bat? Nothing. Hay Sal Butera is still playing?
