    Reds get raped in 8 player deal

    To Washington:

    Austin Kearns
    Felipe Lopez
    Ryan Wagner

    To Cincinnati:

    Gary Majewski
    Bill Bray
    Brendan Harris
    Daryl Thompson
    Royce Clayton

    I guess Narron now has another guy in Clayton who plays the game the right way.

    I am considering becoming a maverick without a team to begin looking for a new one. I don't feel like crying when Dunn is traded soon enough for a 4th starter and a 37 year old outfielder.

    Wow, I actually feel sorry for Reds Fans. Felipe Lopez straight up for those guys may have been a rip-off, but throwing in a quality pitcher and a quality OF?

    Just imagine that phone call:
    Krvisky:"We're interested in trading you Kearns and a few minor leaguers for Soriano"
    Bowden: Are you kidding! We're not moving Sori anyway.
    Krvisky: Well we like Bray and Harris, what about Kearns for them.
    Bowden: I don't think that's enough. How about Kearns and Lopez for Bray and Harris?
    Krvisky: Well, then we'd need a shortstop. Throw in Clayton and some specs and we got a deal.
    Bowden: More specs!? Then we'll need Ryan Wagner.
    Krvisky: That sounds fine.
    Bowden: Nice doing business with you.
    Krvisky: Thanks, you too.
    Bowden(under breath): I guess you want to get fired.
    Krvisky: What?
    Bowden: Call me if you wanna work out a Daryle Ward and Felix Rodriguez for Adam Dunn and Aaron Harang trade, OK?
    Krvisky: We'll be in touch.

    Wagner is struggling mightily. He was simply brought up too soon. Kearns is decent, but has a questionable work ethic.

    Questionable work ethic? Austin Kearns could spontaneously combust right now and the Nats would still come out ahead.

    eh, everyone will probably crap out on the deal. this is hardly the worst deal i have seen.

    At least the Reds got bullpen help, their biggest need.

    Damn, and the Reds were doing so well also.

    This is almost as bad as the Slocumb deal.

    Circular logic aside, Mr Mims, you have yet to provide a single credible reason why you are, in fact, hot.
