Jean Segura. Upgrade at short in the short term and replacement for Phillips in the long term and it would be a kick in the Brewers' nads.
Alex Gordan. The Royals haven't been smart since Bill James moved from Kansas City.

Probably something like that. Then again, I'm terrible at this kind of stuff.
Arise and walk, come through. A world beyond that door is calling out for you. Arise and walk, come through. It's calling out for you.
If I could substitute Corcino for Cingrani, I'd do that deal.
Why would the Brewers even consider trading Segura?
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

Who said anything about trading for him? Just acquire him.

Out of the realistic options I would say: Aramis Ramirez
Reds deal:
Broxton
Cingrani
Brewers deal:
Ramirez
10 million in cash to offset money
I know many won't deal Cingrani, but it's the only way Milwaukee kicks in money. I think they could use Broxton in their bullpen next year. If you look at what Broxton is making plus the 10 million you could afford Aramis.
Contracts:
Ramirez makes:
10 million this year
14 million in 2014
16 million in 2015
Broxton makes
7 million in 2014
9 million in 2015
If you can get the Brewers to kick in the extra 10 million you have your cleanup issue solved for a few years without much extra money.
Aramis gives you a legit #4 hitter.

If you're going for it. Go for it.

If we're going to rob and pillage the peasants, go for Tim Collins.

Tim or Tom?
dude is only 5'-7" and a pitcher.

I'm 5'-7". I used to throw about 70 mph. Never could see how those guys throw 90.
Mike Stanton.

D'oh!!!!
I liked the idea of getting Stanton, but the players required to get him would be too much.
I have heard Bautista from Toronto thrown out there and he seems like a good option, especially at GABP.
Right handed power hitter.
Plays outfield.
Makes less than $15M this year
Plays for last place team.
2015 Attendance 2-1 (4/6, 4/7,4/24)
2014 Attendance 1-3 (3/31, 4/12, 8/14)
2013 Attendance: 6-0 (4/3, 4/16, 4/17, 8/3, 8/21, 9/7)
Segura's a pretty bad SS, not sure he fits in the pitching and defense mentality of the current Reds. I do like the idea of acquiring him as a LF and then a Phillips replacement down the road, however.
