How about this guy as a trade target, has played first base/rf/ lf while serving mostly as a bat off the bench. Bats LH, seems like a nice player to have for a contender

Reds are nine games over .500 and in second...Walt won't be making any deals...

I would seem to think they might want to sure up a leadoff hitter, while Juan Pierre seems to be the popular target, I am wondering why Walt is not making a serious play for Michael Bourn. His 2013 contract status is 3rd yr arb eligible at 1yr/6.85 million, or is it that Scott Boras is his agent and Boras' clients are all top dollar Free agents?

I wouldn't pass on a 36 year old Kotsay as a PH only, but I wish he was the 2000 - 2005 version of himself rather than the past several seasons, he is only slated to make 1.25 mill next year, so definitely not a bad option, better than Cairo or Rolen, lol.

Asking why the Reds aren't pursuing Bourn is like asking why Pittsburgh isn't pursuing Jay Bruce.

Looks like interest is heating up for Kotsay. This would be an immediate upgrade for the bench.
