There will be another player coming to Cincy
Bridge year to Hamilton. If it does nothing more than remove Stubbs as an option for Dusty, it's worth it. Plus, it keeps Choo from hitting 7-8 extra-base hits against the Reds next season.

Re: Reds in deep talks for Shin-soo Choo

If this goes through and the Indians get/keep Stubbs, anybody wanna set an early over/under on total strikeouts combined for the prolific whiff duo of Drew Stubbs and Mark Reynolds?

400? 450??

Either way, it's gonna be windy in Cleveland. lol

Re: Reds in deep talks for Shin-soo Choo

This would give us a really solid lineup. It's a bit much to give up for 1 year with a guy, but I wanna say I read earlier the Indians would be sending another player as well.

Re: Reds in deep talks for Shin-soo Choo

Looks like Arizona is getting involved, I'd guess for a SS. If we can land Choo without losing pitching depth, I'll be ecstatic.

Re: Reds in deep talks for Shin-soo Choo

there has got to be smaller parts to this trade if it ends up a three way trade.

Re: Reds in deep talks for Shin-soo Choo

Lets look at this from indians prospective why would they do this. Im failing to see it. Which is why im not optimistic this is going to happen.

Re: Reds in deep talks for Shin-soo Choo

If it happens this is an absolute steal for the reds. Considering stubbs has almost negative value, and Gregorious's best year since rookie ball in the minors is .289 BA, and a .324 obp.

Crazyiness!!!! Walt better get this done

After 2013, he's a free agent. He's a boras client as well.

There looking to net something, before it's to late.

You might argue and say.."wouldn't choo have more value during the trade deadline period?"

Well considering it would be a 2 month rental, I imagine the amount of prospects would lessened to quite a degree, compared to trading Choo during the offseason, allowing teams to have a full 1 year, and thus requiring more in return.
