rico Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 3 minutes ago, IUFLA said: I think every team has a trade or two that didn't work out... But the Reds had a couple of great trades that led to a couple of World Series rings... McRae was never going to get playing time for the Reds...he was a bad defender more suited for the AL, and after the 71 trade for Morgan, Billingham, Geronimo et al there was no place for him. That is what I alluded to. Nobody cares/cared because of the Reds accomplishments. But they made some poor decisions none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly have no idea but a roster move will be made today since Cabrera is supposed to be available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 The Reds activated Cabrera and put Barrero on the taxi squad so he could stay with the team in Miami. Likely will be activated again when roster expand to 28 on the 1st. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for an owner who last year talked about how important gate/ticket revenue is to the team's financial health....I have friends who can't give their tickets away for the last 30 days. Unless we spend our way back in this could be a 3-4 year rebuild not just 1-2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Javy it's easy for the Mets...he and his .216 average with 4 dongs and 7 RBI can be let go. Lindor is the bigger problem. They have him locked up for 10 years. Try trading that contract/player for anything more than .50 cents on the dollar right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javy isn't going broke anytime soon....but he hasn't hit his contract yet. People forget he was only making mid six figures for the Cubs up until last couple of seasons. https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/new-york-mets/javier-baez-14056/cash-earnings/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They "botched" it from the get go...reminds me sort of what happened to the early 70's A's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
