With the release of Jorge Cantu last month, the Reds only have two players who are eligible for arbitration this year. The date for exchanging figures is Friday January 18th.

The Reds who are arbitration eligible are Matt Belisle and Brandon Phillips. I think this is the first time for both, but I could be wrong about that. IIRC, last year the Reds determined Phillips contract since they couldn't reach an agreement.

Any ideas on how we'll fare with these contracts this season?
