EE, Roenicke, and Zach Stewart for Rolen
I've had more fun reading through this thread over the last 10 minutes then I have all year! I don't care if no deal is made or not!

The Reds are sending Edwin Encarnacion, Josh Roenicke and Zach Stewart to Toronto for Scott Rolen.
That's a high price to pay.
In exchange for Jerry Hairston Jr., the Reds are getting catcher Chase Weems. He was drafted in the sixth round in 2007.
I'd rather give up Stubbs than Alonso, not that I would want to give up Stubbs.
Edwin, Roenicke, and Zach Stewart

Ack! Now we're giving up Stewart? What the heck?

I'm alright with that deal. Just don't want to give up Alonso.
