So, lets say Pence goes to ATL for some pitching. We then have:

 

Phils

Red Sox

Reds

 

in the mix for Quentin. The Reds have some catching prospects that interest me.

 

Reds yes. Grandal all over my face.

Did you get a reply from your text? Because I don't remember seeing Cincinnati mentioned this entire thread.

Also, if the Reds are in on Quentin, they clearly aren't confident in Heisey or Alonso.

Are the Reds still buyers? They are 6.5 back

The Reds primary focus has been SP. I haven't heard much about them looking for bats. Though I'd love either one of their two catching studs.

The Reds are in on Pence, but he's the Phillies' to lose, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (on Twitter).

The Pirates were mentioned once a possible suitor, but I find that hard to believe. They could make a minor move, like for Derrick Lee. However, they must have a decent farm system since they've been in a rebuilding phase longer than many SoxTalk posters have been alive.

Prior to this season, Dunn was one of the most consistent hitters in baseball. It's not ridiculous to expect him to turn it around, once and if his BABIP ever returns to career norms. Looking at his numbers, it's just impossible to explain why he's been this bad. I know I expect him to turn it around any day now. I've said that all season and I'll keep saying it.

Dont you actually have to put the ball in play for BABIP to matter?

It's a lot better than decent. But it would be foolish for them to make any major moves. They're not going anywhere in the postseason if they get there. Which I don't think they will. They need to stick with their current plan.

Well that would stink, 3 way deal with Houston, Philly and Atlanta leaving Kenny out in the cold...

Not good news for the Sox if indeed they want to deal Quentin to the Phils.

So why would the Braves help the Phillies, the team they would potentially face in the NLCS?
