this is exactly what i'm saying. i'm not advocating to trade india for the sake of trading him (in fact, i love the guy and he's fun to watch play for the reds). but with the amount of good middle infield prospects the reds have, if they can get a team to give them a monster return for india, that conversation should definitely be in play. i bet the reds won't trade him, because they would demand a huge return and likely would not get one, but all it takes is one team who really needs a guy like india (a very valuable ballplayer under team control for 4 years after this one), falls in love with him and offers the reds a deal they cannot refuse. that's all i'm saying. i'm not saying "reds should try and trade india." just saying it's a possibility it might happen this offseason IMO due to the amount of good middle infield prospects the reds have and because i still think india has a lot of trade value even after this sophomore slump (which is mostly about injuries IMO and i bet front offices of opposing teams would feel the same way).
