    Think this is the interesting part - wonder if this signals that AA's going to be particularly aggressive on the trade market this winter and in turn with Pache and Waters next spring. With the logjam of arms, would he target a Polanco or OF on a short-term deal rather than bring Markakis back?

    You'd expect that hanging onto a couple of AAAA corner OFs like Tucker and D-Pete would've made sense, but Duvall certainly made Peterson expendable, and bringing Tucker back gives you the LH bat to tuck-away in Gwinnett if Nick isn't brought back.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Not unless he's added to replace an injured player.

    What should be the cost of Mitch Haniger?

    I like Eddie Rosario too.

    I would imagine this is primarily about having another left handed bat on the bench for this season and has very little to do with positioning for next year.

    I'm glad to have him back but I wish the Reds would have taken the dude we traded for back.

    Please don’t answer questions when you don’t know the actual answers. You’ve shown beyond all doubt you have no clue who is and isn’t eligible for playoff rosters.

    There is no way Tucker can be on the playoff roster.

    They should give us back Wiser and Simms and 5 billion dollars for taking Duval
