Wondering why Marshall deal would require a physical to be completed. Didn't seem to be case in Latos deal. Could [url="https://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23Reds"][s]#[/s][b]Reds[/b][/url]extend Marshall?[/font]

Meh, we got a top reliever for our 7th SP.

my main concern with it is what don't we know about Marshall that the cubs are trading a top reliever to a division opponent?

What a dipshit! Is Walt getting alzheimers? First Wood, a pretty decent left handed starter, then Sappelt, a guy that swings a pretty good damn stick? And what do we get in return? A left handed relief pitcher in the last year of his contract! That has to be the most bone headed deal since the Frank Robinson trade. The reds have a lot of lefties they can use in the bull pen. They have Bray and Chapman. I didn't realize they let Daniel Ray Herrera go. I thought they were really expecting a lot out of him. I guess Walt is serious about Chapman being a starter, and doesn't believe any of the minor leaguers are good enough for the majors. DAmn that was a lot to give up though. I sure miss Arthur Rhodes now.

I don't think it's THAT bad. Marshall was one of the top 3 relieves last year and the best WAR reliever since he made his transition two years ago. (wins against replacement)

[b]If we can sign him to an extension[/b] I'll be very fine with this trade.

That's the key. Without it, it's a huge failure

Or we could have kept all our talent, filled in a left handed reliever out of the farm system or free agents, and signed him next year...just saying. It was a dumb move.
