Has anyone heard any more of the rumor that was posted on the UC board the other day?
Supposedly the Reds and Marlins are discussing a trade, Kearns, Encarnacion, and Wagner to the Marlins for D-Train and Cabrerra.

False..
That would be nowhere NEAR enough...
FL could get much more trading each seperately..

I was thinking the same thing. Otherwise we'd be searching for someone to drive Kearns, EE, and Wags to Florida before they change their mind.
Exactly.. Krivs would HAVE to jump on it in a heart beat.. who cares about salary.. this would rocket the Reds into a contender...
Cabrera goes to 3b.. Denorfia takes over in the OF or Freel given a full time job out there.. and Willis in the rotation? Thats 1 ace, a #2 in Harang if he keeps pitching like he did yesterday, a good #3 in Arroyo, and a good #4 in claussen..

I doubt that rumor is true.
But, damn, if it is and we make this deal.....I'm flying up to Cincy on the first flight I can get to give Krivs a big hug. We could seriously be a very good team if we could get Willis and Cabrera.
Are you guys not salivating over this lineup?
RF Freel
SS Lopez
CF Griffey
3B Cabrera
LF Dunn
1B Aurilia/Hatteberg
C LaRue/Valentin
2B Phillips
Now THAT is one dangerous lineup.

You couldn't get either of those players for that package.
That is the most ridiculous and flippant rumor I've ever heard, stop and think about that deal for a second...
Even the Fish wouldn't do that
No way--say one thing about the fish, they seem to always get good young pitchers when they make trades....so, unless the names of Homer and Wood are mentioned, Im sure the fish would hang up and go on to the next team on hold....
With that said...I have a feeling, deep down in my gut that Bob C. wants to win now and when/if Willis comes on the market.......
i would rather see a trade of Claussen, Edwin, Kata and a couple of prospects for D-train and Cabrera
but i wonder if they would bite...
Hey Ramp101.. you heard anything to this rumour mentioned??
You couldn't even get Hanley Ramirez for those 3 players, let alone even one of Cabrera or Willis.Originally Posted by redsfan4445
This whole rumor is probably the worst I have read on a message board in years.
This rumor would be like the Braves offering Horacio Ramirez, Wilson Betemit, and some AAA fodder for Dunn. Would you do that trade if you were the Reds?
Package the whold darn triple A team to FLA for those 2.
But it has to be a sign and trade.
5 years for each.

there's nothing like bowling a 300 game! 13 now and retired.
Ricky henderson has a higher OBP than C. patterson and he's retired. C. Trent 6-14-2008
Marc Lancaster laughed this rumor off on his blog...said give up hope on either of these two...Reds won't have enough to offer.
Heard where going to get Liriano for Womack and Aurilia
