Reds get raped in 8 player deal

[Mr. D™]

This is the first thing I heard about when I woke up.

I have masturbated seventy eight times since then.

may Kearns and Lopez make a big Drop in abilities now that they are on your team

[CrimsonNW]

Pathetic. They got bent over.

[redsfan28]

I can say one thing, Jim Bowden saved his job with this trade.

[McKain]

Probably not - reports indicate that the new owners still want to install their own hand-picked GM, they just don't want to shuffle the team up mid-season.

Let's hope that's true. Or that Bowden rapes the Reds another time or two before then.

[Providence A's]

nevermind...already noted...ummm, yea, this trade seems unfair...yea

[love_that_reefer]

Jim Edmonds for Kent Bottenfield and Adam Kennedy is still one of my favorites.

[Kingdom]

I was wondering what the reds nation on here felt about that deal yesterday. Sorry I missed the fun.

Revenge of the Bowden?

[GiantsFanatic]

red needed bullpen help and thats what they got, your acting like kearns is your best player or something give me a break

reds want to win NOW and they did what they need to do, which was solidify there weak point which was there bullpen

Jim Edmonds for Kent Bottenfield and Adam Kennedy is still one of my favorites.

Ryan Vogelsong and Armando Rios for Jason Schmidt (and John Vander Wal) was a pretty good trade as well....for both the Giants and Padres

[Porter]

I don't think anything is as bad as the Kazmir-Zambrano trade.

At least nothing in my lifetime.

Then again, Fred McGriff for Melvin Nieves wasn't too pretty

Heathcliff Slocumb for That catcher thats now in Boston, and 2 other guys.

haha yah man i remember that trade in 02 i believe, i was like "what a BS trade"(because i liked armando rios) didn't know it would become this big!!!

Joe Nathan, Liriano and Boof Bonzer for A.j. Pierzynski will go down as one of the worst too.

[HollywoodLeo]

Boof Bonzer is one of the best names in baseball

[realmofotalk]

The Pirates are still douchebags for giving Schmidt to the Giants but that trade cancels out my negative feelings for Sabean. Knock on wood that Sabean's former right hand man Ned Colletti does not make a trade where he draws the short end similar to the one for A.J. Pierzynski.
