Re: Willis = Kearns + prospects LINK While I agree, the wikipedia thing is bogus, something is going on here fellas. I mean I've been hearing the BIG TRADE for the reds here in columbus on the radio.

1460 the fan says that the Reds will unveil a franchise ground breaking trade that was the biggest deal since the AROD deal. I think it's gonna be a 3 way deal, I really do.

I'd be happy with keeping what we have, and adding a quality starter or two, much like when we got Juan Guzman for the stretch in 99, that was awesome.

Jim Day on 1460 The Fan You can listen to Jim Day talk to Herbstreit about a trade. He says he feels as if a trade is coming from just being around the team. He also says he has no real information on a trade actually taking place though. He did say if the Reds do make a trade it will be for a big name player though. Oh well if you want to listen click the link and scroll down to where it says the big show. After that click on the link where it says 4-5pm (should be a wma link). After that go to about 24 or 25 minutes and Day should begin talking about the team. Hopefully you all can get it to work (sorry if my instructions suck, im not the brigtest).

The most depressing thing about this thread is that I was never mentioned once.

Well, now that seems a little more likely. Willis for Kearns and prospects. Bailey perhaps?

I'm actually kinda glad someone just made this up. After thinking about it, I wouldn't want to trade Bailey for Willis. Willis' low K-rate worries me. I'm not even sure he'll be a #1 starter the next few years. He may not even be now.

Tejada, on the other hand, would have been an awesome acquisition.

What I'd really like to do is trade Edwin Encarnacion for a young major league starter, like Ervin Santana. We really need someone to go along with Homer when he is ready.

Since Narron's contract has been extended and he doesn't appear to be too high on Edwin's defense, that might not be a bad deal.

If we could have a 2008 rotation of:

Arroyo
Harang
Bailey
Pitcher acquired for EE
Travis Wood

I think we'd definately be in the wild card hunt (at least) all season. I believe 2008 is Arroyo's last season under contract. Hopefully, we'll sign Harang to an extension. Bailey should be in the rotatoin to start 2008, and I'm guessing Travis Wood makes the rotation at some point that season. That's the year I'm looking to and will be disappointed if we don't make the post season that year.
