Re: Reds trade for Angels' OF Brian Goodwin
I liked Naughton, but I'm not torn up over losing him. Wish him success in his career.
Re: Reds trade for Angels' OF Brian Goodwin
Bullpen help and CF help. Well done Reds.
Re: Reds trade for Angels' OF Brian Goodwin
Both trades involved prospects exposed to rule 5 draft in December with perhaps not a ton of spots available. Neither guy super young or with big projectable upside. Feels like a reasonable strategy.

More than anything, I like that they didn't give up a lot in terms of prospects and the guys they acquired aren't rentals.

Re: Reds trade for Angels' OF Brian Goodwin
Goodwin likely will replace Payton on active roster. Bradley will replace someone like Thornburg, several to choose from.
One will replace JVM on the forty. Reds will need another forty move but won’t be hard to move probably a reliever.
A question is how they fit the guys in the OF. If Senzel remains out, then it’s just four guys with Winker DHing. Maybe Shogo moves to fourth OF status.
Upon Senzel’s return it gets crowded but who knows when that will be. He may need a rehab period, possibly he’s out for regular season if not full season.

Doubtful. Shogo has made some strides at the plate and has flashed excellent defense. Is Goodwin Shogo/Senzel insurance? Sure.
Saying "bingo" that the Reds have totally lost faith in Shogo after his first 100 abs in MLB is ridiculous.

He is in the lineup tonight though, so maybe it's more like an insurance policy.
Re: Reds trade for Angels' OF Brian Goodwin
Reds get a legit major league player that can OPS near .800 and play every OF spot and he is controlled through 2022.
This is a fantastic trade.
I also think they have come to the conclusion Shogo can’t hit major league pitching.

With Wink at DH and Senzel out, it’s only four guys playing OF. They should be able to work that out. Unless they keep Payton but he would be lightly used fifth OFer.

Well played.
Re: Reds trade for Angels' OF Brian Goodwin
Like this move a lot, especially considering we're probably not getting Nick back, and Goodwin is controlled until '23.
