    Cueto is done for the year. Too many innings.

    If it clears up payroll for the Reds, and the Brewers just sank 11 MM into Broxton...I'm cool with that.

    Bad contract for sure, but Brox has done well this year and will come back to haunt us, if this is true, in division battles in the future. They had better get something good for him or else this is a dumb move.

    Everyone is playing hurt.

    What part of his game since he's return does he show any signs of not being good enough to play? I see zero signs of not being ok to play.

    As I type he makes a tremendous play....just like we expect.

    Coming off a wrist injury and he swings for a long HR...Sorry if I believe his wrist is feeling ok.

    I never bought into the don't trade to someone in the division. If you seem it as a positive trade then what does it matter.
