According to Marc's blog, Reds have traded two minor leaguers for Jeff Conine. More info to come.
Maybe it's the start of more moves to come.

Almost 41... scrappiness jokes ensue
When all is said and done more is said than done.
Zippity-do-dah...a 40-yr-old 1st baseman w/a .700 OPS.
40 year old platoon guy who will make $2 million this year.
Stupendous. WK, you have outdone yourself once again.
If the minor leaguers happen to be Votto or Bailey, EFFING kill me.
Something doesnt seem right with this trade.

and the hits keep a comin......
Back to following MiLB; there's always hope for tomorrow!
I love it how everyone begs and begs for a move then when it happens their automatically disgusted with it
Why do the Reds need a 40-yr-old slap hitting 1st baseman. Yes, people want moves. But they want moves that will improve the team.
Why trade for a guy that is on the far side of effective, when there are at least two FA options that are much, much better (Wilson, Craig; Perez, Eduardo).

Ah, we all knew it was going to happen eventually...
I'm telling you, these el cheapo lowball placeholder moves scream "rebuild." I just hope it's a real one, and not a half-ass job.
