JC Sulbaran was not added today by Kansas City. Interesting.

Pretty much the only guys I would've lost any sleep over got protected, so that's good. Would've hated watching Guillon get plucked.
Volstad, at this point, is not any better than what the Reds have right now. He's worse than Leake, Bailey or Arroyo on a bad day.
Duran or Feldhauer would have been next on my list, but won't lose sleep over the loss of either.
