The Reds would get robbed in that trade. I don't like it.
Piling on alert:
Scrap, that is a terrible trade for the Reds.
Go BLUE!!!
Agree. Awful.
I wouldn't take Doumit straight up for Mesoraco right now let alone in 2-3 years.

Yeah Scrap put the stuff from your desk in a box because you're fired as GM after that deal.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Didn't Doumit just sign like a 3 year extension recently?

2 year ext., at the end of June.

You don't want Capps now. I saw this morning on the MLB Network he went to the DL with rotator cuff problems.

The Reds can trade their Competitive Balance Lottery pick (1st round #36) starting tomorrow. They are allowed to trade this pick as long as it is before the end of this season.
It just occurred to me moments ago that perhaps this is what may have been holding up a flurry of trades (other than the usual "deadline" itself). Perhaps some clubs have been waiting to see who will have picks available, where they fall etc. We'll see.

Yeah I was thinking the same. Glad the Cards got blanked on that front.

Did they get blanked or are they in the second tier?
Blanked....for sure.
