Gone are the days of the Big Red Machine with only 2 members left (Perez and Concepcion) and the future looks bright with the number of young prospects looking to make a big splash.

Catchers (2)
L. Martinez
#D. Vando

Infield (7)
Dave Concepcion
#Nick Esasky
Tom Foley
Ron Oester
Tony Perez
Eduardo Rovira (acquired in the Rose deal with Houston)
#Michael Wessell

Outfield (3)
#Cesar Cedeno
#Dave Parker
Gary Redus

Pitching (11)
1) Mario Soto
2) Mark Portugal (acquired in the Power deal with Minnesota)
3) Ron Robinson
4) Frank Pastuer

Closer
John Franco

Setup
Carl Willis
Tom Hume

Middle Relief
Andy McGaffigan
Joe Price
Jay Tibbs
Ronald Lopez

Im hoping to get one more trade done. I could use a young LF to team up with Davis and O'Neill for the next 10 yrs and I could use an upgrade over what I have in the rotation right now.
