This is an interesting tidbit
http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/story/t...d=479488067562For all the talk about Cueto, Chapman and right-hander Mike Leake, some around the Reds believe that right fielder Jay Bruce is as good a bet as anyone to be traded.
Bruce, 28, rejected a pair of extension offers from the team last season. Catcher Devin Mesoraco, coming off surgery on his left hip, could end up in the outfield next season. So, if the Reds move Bruce (along with potential free agent Marlon Byrd), they might be short only one outfielder in 2016.
He rejected not one but TWO extension offers from the Reds? I thought he wanted to play his entire career in Cincinnati?
