    Re: Official trade rumor thread.

    Can this thread be for other rumors too- ex FA signings and managers?

    If so, Eduardo Perez is interested in the Reds opening.

    I think that Eduardo is a viable candidate along with my favorite Doug Flynn.

    If Eduardo Perez is hired as the a Reds manager, I'm afraid he'll only last 44 days.

    Would Eduardo Perez even be able to command respect from the players?

    Official release: I have interest in managing the Reds. I am hoping for at least a courtesy interview.

    Josh Hamilton for Edinson Volquez and Daniel Ray Herrera or here's another one Austin Kearns and Felipe Lopez for Gary Majewski Bill Bray and Royce Clayton but to be fair Bill Bray wasn`t that bad.

    Re: Official trade rumor thread.

    How about Brandon Phillips to the New York Mets for:

    Noah Snydergaard- SP
    Wilmer Flores- 2B/3B/SS
    Kevin Plawecki- C

    The Mets could then move Daniel Murphy to 1B


    Homer Bailey to the Texas Rangers for:

    Jurickson Profar
    Tanner Scheppers

    Homer could go back home.

    Our 2014 roster would be:

    1. Choo
    2. B Hamilton
    3. Votto
    4. Bruce
    5. Mesoraco
    6. Profar
    7. Frazier
    8. Cozart

    Bench:

    Hanigan for 1 more year. Plawecki and Barnhart waiting
    Flores
    Ludwick
    Hannahan
    X Paul

    Rotation:

    Cueto
    Latos
    Cingrani
    Leake
    Snydergaard/Stephenson

    Chapman
    Scheppers
    Marshall
    Broxton
    LeCure
    Simon
    Parra

    The Reds would be able to move Flores and Profar around the infield. Profar can even play LF. So if Frazier and Cozart struggle, we'd have options to step right in.

    Re: Official trade rumor thread.

    Bailey for Profar AND Scheppers? I immediately hire you as the Reds GM. Less enthralled with the BP trade - Wilmer will need patience (he's only 21 so no rush to judge but he struggled at the ML level) and Plawecki is a better hitting version of Barnhart but only at A+. Snydergaard is a big powerful arm. Great package for BP considering his contract heft, though.

    Realistically I don't think you get either deal unless you add a good chunk of future salary for BP and Bailey alone won't get you Profar let alone he and Scheppers.

    I think we could only get Profar for Bailey if Bailey and Rangers worked out an extension prior to the trade.

    That being said, I'd do it.
