It's about time he came to his senses....I guess the FO had to ask him this time and say "pretty please" so he would accept the trade.

He was a great player for this team and the best fielding 2B I've ever seen but...Dueces.

The club having to eat all that money of is the part I was afraid of, but what can you do...they had to move him.

 He will make $14 million in the coming season, and Fox Sports reported that Cincinnati will pick up most of his salary.

What a relief.  I hate the Braves but as a fan of DatDude I really didn't want to see him burn bridges here.  Hope to see him back in a few years on a $1, one day contract and retiring a Red.  Look forward to his HoF induction ceremony.

Step 2: Trade Cozart.

Then season Dilson and Jose. Wait a year and bring Senzel up. Hope that Schebler, Winker, or Duvall can man the corners. Pray Cody Reed and Robert Stephenson pan out.

So I took the plunge and got MLB Extra Innings this year.  I just hope the Reds win close to 80 games.

 

Take it you're not in the Cincinnati area?  Thought about getting it but the blackout rules make it kind of pointless.

North Carolina.  About 25 miles SE of Raleigh.

I don't think they are going to approach 80 wins. Especially with Disco possibly being shelved. Probably a long year with a bunch of young guys starting to get some experience.

The won 68 last season so you're probably right.  If those young guys get it together quickly though, who knows.  It's a very long season.  Depends on how big a hole they dig themselves early on.
