Chris Heisey likely to sign 1-yr deal
Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN
CIN talked to Chris Heisey about multi-year deals re:arbitration situation, but he's likely to sign 1-year deal, source close to Reds says. Last edited by mattfeet; 01-18-2013 at 11:43 AM. |

Re: Chris Heisey likely to sign 1-yr deal
Smart move from a career perspective, IMO. Last year was a down year for him. I don't think he'd be able to play himself off next year's team, so it's not like it's his only chance to make some money.

Re: Chris Heisey likely to sign 1-yr deal
If he gets traded, becomes a starter, and puts up good numbers, his leverage bodes well for a better contract.

Re: Chris Heisey likely to sign 1-yr deal
Does anyone think that Heisey is ever going to land a starting job anywhere?
He's Reds' property until 2017. If I was him, I wouldn't mind signing a 2 year deal. I just can't see him making himself that much more valuable to an arbitrator next year. The only thing I can think of is that maybe Chris thinks that going year to year will hasten a trade out of Cincy? I'd grab some security if I was Chris. (Even though backup OF seldom have career ending injuries)

Heisey is Just another Denorfria... Something the Reds are very good at producing.

Is it just me or are the Reds rather conspicuous in their absence in this list?
