reiks12 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I wanted to make a thread focused on trades that can help the big league club for 2019 and beyond. Obviously everyone is excited about the FA market and who we might possibly grab however we can also use our minor league depth to acquire players that will help our team going forward. For instance the Reds have a logjam at 3b with Suarez playing at an allstar level and Senzel looming. Where will Senzel play? The Reds announced he will be playing multiple positions in 2019. What if The Sox swooped in and offered for either Suarez or Senzel? Both would be a good option as Suarez is signed thru 2024 and Senzel is still on a minor league contract. With the White Sox OF depth I can see some interesting trade possibilities. I am awful with trade suggestions, but obviously we would be losing some blue chip prospects. I can see two of Robert, Gonzalez, Rutherford and one of Dunning, Hansen being included. What would you offer, or would you? What other creative trades could be made?

Bob Sacamano Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Suarez will definitely cost a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 As far as a trade does, I only have a few untouchables: - Eloy, Kopech, Cease, Robert, and Madrigal. Everyone else is available in the right deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone else is available in the right deal. At this stage I’d substitute Moncada for Madrigal but I agree on the others, although I guess if Colorado offered Arenado for Dunning, Robert and another prospect AND Arenado was open to an extension, I’d have an easy time saying goodbye to Robert.

raBBit Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Kevin Kiermaier is someone I've thought about as interesting. He's the only thing on the books for the Rays and had an awful year. I'd be curious what the Rays would want for him. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Glove defensive CF that can hit/run when he can somehow stay on the field. If he can be had for anything cheap we should be all over it as a replacement to Engel. Anyway, I'm on board with looking at the Reds 3b options, but last year they were moving Senzel around (prior to his injury if I recall). I'm sure there not in a rush to trade him. Maybe a trade involving Rodon as our centerpiece for their Senzel? I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Sign Harper, then trade Madrigal, Gonzalez, and Rutherford for Senzel. Future outfield would include 3 of Harper/Eloy/Robert/Basabe/Adolfo/Walker with 1 at DH, and we’d have our third basemen of the future. Not sure if the Reds would accept that though.

I am not down with trading prospects at this time . too early. Many still have to show they can be good in AA . Then they will be worth more going forward or give us the option of using them in the rebuild. I'd never trade Madrigal ,Gonzales and Rutherford for Senzel. 3 guys who could be quality ballplayers for one who could be ? No. We don't even know what we really have in those 3 yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get where you're coming from but I wouldn't put Senzel in the same category as those 3. He's pretty close to the Vlad/Eloy tier of prospects. I don't even know if Madrigal/Gonzalez/Rutherford is a fair offer for him. But I understand why you wouldn't want to trade prospects in the first place.

Dam8610 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Avisail Garcia for Francis Martes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFutureIsNear Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Phillies are the team I would target a trade with...Odubel Herrera, Maikel Franco, and Nick Williams all interest in me. Depending on who they sign taking on Carlos Santana’s contract could help in negotiations. Jake Lamb, and to a lesser degree Socrates Brito, from the Dbacks are interesting. Also don’t hate the idea of Wil Myers depending on price. In any and all negotiations Eloy, Kopech, Cease and Robert aren’t on the table. Really don’t want to give up Dunning, Collins, Hansen or Rutherford either but they can be had depending on who’s coming back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 If they could sign Harper and trade for a controllable 3rd baseman like Suarez or Senzel, I would cry tears of joy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I bandied about a Rodon and Rutherford for Senzel deal earlier in the offseason, but Senzel is going to play LF for the Reds and I doubt he's going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Senzel trade in my Offseason Plan, and it was Cease, Burger, and Hansen. Although as someone pointed out, Burger doesn't make a ton of sense for the Reds, because they would still have India blocking Burger. So swap out Burger for Gonzalez, or Rutherford, or Adolfo, or Walker. Either way, I can't see the Reds giving up a top 5 hitting prospect in Senzel without getting a blue chip pitching prospect like Kopech or Cease in return.
