    What's Left Out Their For The Redlegs..

    We know the Reds are hunting for a 5th starter to build compitition with Ramirez, Claussen, Belisle, & Dumatrait. Also the Reds have be looking for a Rich Aurilia type player to not only platoon with Hatteberg at 1st but to play 3rd, 2nd, and purhaps OF. So I thought why not see what is left in the FA market that might fall into the Reds budget.

    Starters:

    Tony Armas Jr.
    Shawn Estes
    Rick Helling
    Jason Marquis
    Brian Moehler
    Mark Mulder
    Tomo Ohka
    Russ Ortiz
    Chan Ho Park
    Mark Redman
    Aaron Sele
    John Thompson
    Steve Trachsel

    INF/OF Platoons

    Aaron Boone
    Jeremy Burnitz
    Jeff Cirillo
    Darin Erstad
    Shea Hillandbrand
    Aubrey Huff (maybe..might be pushing the budget)
    Ryan Klesko
    Mark Loretta
    John Mabry
    Doug Mientkiewicz
    Phil Nevin
    Trot Nixon
    Eduardo Perez
    Fernando Tatis
    Craig Wilson
    Chris Woodward

    What do you think is possible? What do you wish for out of these?

    Freakin' depressing. Already picking through the table scraps.

    I'd take Wilson and Ohka. Although Ohka could cost 10 mil/yr, considering what Lilly and Meche got...Ohka stats are pretty similar to both of them, if not better...Not to mention he's slightly more a of groundball pitcher...If he could be had for 3 yr/24 mil, would you do it?

    There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

    The bolded are the only ones the Reds should pursue, IMO.
