I think Puig would go nuts in GABP, but either way, I'm sure he will be better than a return Bruce will fetch at the end of the month when his OPS drops 60-70 points.

I'm going to go start a twitter account and claim that the Angels offered Mike Trout for Bruce and the Reds said no.
It will be on twitter so it will be true.
You guys do know that aren't really buying and selling in a stock market. Teams will know everything that you know, plus some.
I 'll go nuts if I have to see is lazy play in RF.... goodness... he's the laziest "star level" player I 've ever seen on the field. just say no to Puig..Quote:

Yea. I realize all the buyers want to examine their options (and some may want to procrastinate a trade to evaluate their in house options a few more weeks).Quote:

Note, I have no idea if there are any decent offers on the table.
I am pretty sure a lot of RZers are overvaluing him though.
Yes, Bruce is a highly known quantity. That's the problem.Quote:

If I'm the Reds, I try to finalize a deal at the All Star Break. That's when the market usually starts. Wouldn't wait for another hot streak, too iffy.
I think the Reds are standing pat to get a good offer given the current field.... however - ASG rosters will be announced tonight, so if Bruce is going to SD - he will be a Red for at least another week (Reds won't pull another Jeff Shaw). If not - I think he gets traded stat.Quote:

He just hit a Homerun. Trade him.
I don't think that Bruce is a mystery to any team.
A week slump or hot streak won't affect his value.
He is what he is, an inconsistent hitter who is having a better year due to better health.
We need to get a decent return for him regardless. I don't imagine any team will look at him like a stock price and try to time trading for him at the end of a slump so they can buy low on him.
Though, I do like the way the Reds sold short on Latos to the Marlins.
Shake it off.Quote:

I think the better question is "Who says you're not always stoned".Quote:

I might bet the farm on that.
Walts M.O is to strike when the iron is ICE COLD....we all know that.
People complaining about not trading Bruce while his numbers were at their absolute pick three weeks ago are hilarious to me. Do you think other teams don't know Bruce is a streak hitter, and just looked at his slash line and were eager to give up the farm for him? Come on.
