Donald was a guy the Reds were talking about acquiring from Philly back at the 09 deadline when he was a prospect. Instead the Indians acquired him in the Cliff Lee package. Probably delays Henry Rodriguez's big league debut.
I red on Facebook that Bauer is in the deal. Just written by some random guy, though. So take it FWIW.

Re: Shin-soo Choo?

Donald seems like a solid utility guy, much better than Burriss.

Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN

Talent evaluators rave about glove of Didi Gregorius, SS who would go to Ariz. in 3-way trade. Some project him as regular, others utility.

Negative Fay says the Reds can't extend Choo.

I know it's probably true but man he needs to ease up on the payroll thing.
