I have a UK message board with 3 of my friends and one is a guy who lives in the Cincy area and knows a couple business men tied to the Reds.Not sure if they work for the Reds or just bussiness men around the area who know Reds employes.He told me over on my message board that he was told that the Reds are talking to a team about a trade for a CF.He didnt know a name,well atleast didnt give me one.All he was told was that they are talking and are mentioning names with a club and something could happen shortly.If he gives me a name or a club Ill pass it along but this is all I was told at the time thanks.

I posted this on another thread but XM175 HOMEPLATE said tonight that the Reds are looking to place Griffey in Right Field this spring. Your statement and this could go "hand in hand".

It's probably not that earth shattering that they are talking with another team about a CF. To be honest, they probably have several hundred conversations through out the year with other teams about different trade possibilites, 99% that never come to fruition.

Donnie Walsh, the Pres. and CEO of the Indiana Pacers, in an interview after the 8 player trade this week between the Pacers and Golden State, said that in pro sports the trades that are talked about openly usually never happen - it's the ones that aren't talked about that usually end up happening.:cool:

So, I guess the lesson is to never talk about a trade you want to happen.

I don't know that this is inferring that Griff is getting traded. It could be a good indicator that he's moving over. Then again, maybe not.

So, if we talk about Rick's "trade", according to TStuck it won't happen?

I think there is a better chance of me having Jessica Simpson come over and clean my bathroom than Jr getting traded.

If Jessica Simpson is at your house, I'll clean your bathroom!!

I'd settle for *anyone* coming over and cleaning my bathroom.

Yeah....lets trade for another CF....we already have 2.5 on the team in Freel, Denorfia and Griffey (he thinks he is, no one else does....hence the .5)

If they trade for another CF just to appease Junior...well, that's just sad.

I'm of the opinion that Kriv gets paid per transaction.

So yea... definitely feel a move coming soon. I mean, the guy needs some walking around money in Florida.

Unless you can get Hunter, they are pretty weak as far as outfielders go.

Yep...but they have a ton of guys who going to arb next year and need to save some money...we could deal younger guys with potential and enable them to resign a couple more of their players.

Oh you put him as a .5 because he's like only half a center fielder, oh that's hillarious. You're awesome.

If we could get a legit everyday CF that allows us to move Griffey to RF, I would do it in a heartbeat. Then send Denorfia to the Marlins for a pitcher.

I like Denorfia and his defense alot, but you could get someone better.

Oh really? Who's that? Who are you going to trade away to get that "legit" CF better than Denorfia? I'm not averse to anything that helps the team -- but I don't see who this CF better than Deno that is available (for a reasonable cost) is...

I don't know who is available. All I was saying was that there are better options the Denorfia is CF. If Wayne can trade for one, then I am all for it.
