    Any chance we can ship Drelich and Ortiz for this guy? He's been a good follow the last few days.

    Will everything be known by 3?

    Its concievable they could agree on a deal before then... and then let the actual news filter out later?

    There's a strong chance Preller overplayed his hand.

    Not sure about when it will all filter out

    But the guys on MLB network did say that all deals had to be complete by the deadline, couldn't agree at last minute and still have time to do medicals after that. 3:00 our time, it has to be absolutely complete

    According to the guys at MLB Network

    Lunhow Conference called Reds/Padres.

    Prospect ABC for X player

    Whoever calls me back first wins.

    Reds and Padres currently bidding against each other to take offer.

    Boom. One can dream right.

    I like McTaggart. Seems like these guys have to be egregiously douchy to gain hatred.

    Well, to be fair most of the guys he was dangling are controlled. He might have had a mindset that we will shop them, if we are blown away we will sell off and go into a rebuild. If we aren't blown away, then we have all these guys to build around next year.

    I would assume so also

    Wonder if they can get the medical reports on other players even before they agree to a deal? Wonder if they have already reviewed medicals on all the potential pieces and are just seeing if they can get an agreement?

    Bruce not in the lineup for the Reds. Wonder where he may be off to.

    Deals are due to the MLB offices by 3; announcements are all media-driven and not related to the deadline. News of deals always trickle out after the deadline.
