I am guessing Snell wants out of Tampa Bay after that pathetic decision making to pull him out.
The rays are known to trade big named pitchers for huge hauls.
Reds get:
Snell
Rays get:
Senzel
Lodolo
Santillan
Random lottery ticket
Who says no?

What would you say.....ya do here?
I wouldn’t be trying to trade Senzel personally, but if I was, I think it’d have to be for a hitter. Not that the trade isn’t technically worth it per se, but I think given the resources they have, they’re best move would be to trade for a hitter and open up the vaults for Bauer.
Although idk maybe they could do this one and sign George Springer with the Bauer money
I think the Rays might say no though also, I think they could get more for Snell. 3 more years and he’s relatively cheap for a couple of them still. Even his 16mil on his last year is a bargain relative to his performance.
There's a chance that Smell gets traded. Not because he wants it, but because he is going to get expensive and that's when the Rays traditionally trade guys.
2020- $7 Mill (pre-covid)
2021 - $11.1 mill
2022 - $13.1 mill
2023 - $16.6 mill
He only signed the contract in 2019. He may last another year. He will not finish 2022 with Rays.
Rays would not accept that offer. It's basically a good pitchng prospect in Lodolo, a guy that has been pretty much a bust in 2 years in majors (Senzel), and an iffy prospect in Santillan. They can do better.

Here is one:
Reds trade Raisel Iglesias and Jesse Winker to the LA Dodgers in exchange for Gavin Lux, Scott Alexander. Caleb Ferguson and Edwin Rios.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

Any trade for Snell would need to be centered around Hunter Greene, not Senzel.

That, unfortunately, is what it would require to convince the Rays to even consider trading Snell at this point.
No thanks.
Ron Madden stated it best in a recent thread - something along the lines of: Many of us want the Reds to act like the Rays, but want us to consider trades that the Rays themselves would never consider making.
Whatever you do, do your best to not allow the struggles of life to interfere with the pleasures of living.
I would absolutely NOT trade Greene for Snell.

Why?
I honestly can’t figure this out. Greene is a lottery ticket. I know he is hyped, throws really hard, and could be special. On the flip his arm has already required TJ and he is about as unproven as prospects come. He has pitched a grand total of 72.2 innings since being drafted in 2017!
Snell is a sure-fire cy young candidate (he already has one) controlled through 2023. He was a mega millions ticket that hit and made someone a multi millionaire.
I get coveting prospects, but this would be a no-brainer.
