Arroyo to the Yanks? Doesn't seem likely

It has been rumored that the New York Yankees are looking to acquire reds Starting Pitcher Bronson Arroyo. As I've told everyone don't count on it, the Yankees want the reds to take on some of his contract for this and his next year. Which is not likely unless they are wowed by the return they would get. As of right now I wouldn't give anything to get Bronson other than a B Level prospect. Bronson is just an innings eater and nothing special anymore.


Story first broke by Jeff Fletcher of MLB Fan House.

Reds Transactions..More on the DL

"Today the Reds placed on the 15-day disabled list OF Chris Dickerson (bruised right rotator cuff) and RHP Micah Owings (tight right shoulder). IF Drew Sutton (#27) and RHP Robert Manuel (#60) were recalled from Class AAA Louisville."


I don't know about the other reds fans, but this has to tick you off just a little bit. The Reds want to win right? There buyers right? Well why are they bringing up Drew Sutton when you have better options in Drew Stubbs and Chris H. So where do we go from here? Really looks like to me the reds have packed it in, and just don't want to say it publicly.

Chris Dickerson Out

Looks like something is wrong with Chris Dickerson on the field more updates to come..

Juan Pierre Coming to the Queen City?

As Per John Fay

"You hear all sorts of rumors as the trade deadline approaches. Here's one I heard today: Arthur Rhodes to the Dodgers for Juan Pierre.

I don't see it happening. Pierre makes $10 million next year and $8.5 million in 2011. His career on-base is .348. He's a slight upgrade over Willy Taveras. But I'd think the Reds would be looking for outfielders with more pop than Pierre."
