Throw in Taylor Trammell and you've got a deal
In all seriousness, I just don't see a match here. If the Reds are giving up Senzel, it's going to be for a roster upgrade at C or SS. That isn't coming from the Padres. So as Griffey012 said, unless it's Bogaerts coming to Cincinnati, it's a hard pass for me. I'm guessing, if the Red Sox were willing to move him, it would take some serious prospect capital coming both from San Diego and Cincinnati.

Yeah, the only way I could see this working is if the deal is built around this framework:
Reds get Bogaerts
Padres get Senzel
Sox get Myers and Gore
Obviously, this wouldn’t be the whole deal and there would be other lesser pieces involved to balance things a bit since the Red Sox would need more prospects to pull the trigger as this is predicated on them moving towards a full rebuild.
You want Senzel? I’ll take Tatis or Bogaerts.
Short of that (which obviously isn’t happening), I’m not sure there’s a match here.
Go BLUE!!!

If Senzel was injured and out for the season, how many games would you shave off the expected win total? The reason I ask, I get he is valuable, but not sure he is a significant impact on this season with the current roster....and if that is the case, then I would consider moving him for a package of high level prospects.
Padres Get:
Nick Senzel - CF
Jose Garcia - SS (Minors)
Scott Schebler - OF
Reds Get:
Taylor Trammell - CF (Minors)
CJ Abrams - SS (Minors)
Luis Campusano - C (Minors)
