Just seems like you could maybe get Leake a little cheaper if you took on Phillips. And Phillips also addresses a need for the Yankees, so it kind of makes sense all around.

I've been preaching Phillips since the deadline started and the Reds were shoppers

We have like a several page long discussion on Philips and Leake a few pages back around 4pm

Yeah, I think it would be pretty solid.

That Stephen Drew play in the field just now is the clincher for me.

Phillips pulled from the game. Of course, the reds are up 10 runs in the 8th so that could be why.

Nobody else has been pulled yet though.

Fully convinced the Cardinals have sold their soul to the devil.

Walk off walk on a pitch 7 feet off the plate.

They shipped their top prospect for a fricking leake rental?

Granted, they have one of the worst systems in baseball, but that is still hilarious

The Astros are “pushing hard” to find an upgrade in the bullpen and have several irons in the fire, according to Jim Bowden of ESPN.com (via Twitter). Given the players under consideration, it looks like Houston is aiming high. We just heard of talks with the Padres that may include Craig Kimbrel, and Bowden says they’ve also discussed Joaquin Benoit. As Evan Drellich of the Houston Chronicle tweeted earlier, the Rays have spoken with the Astros about pen arms, though he adds nothing seems likely there, and Bowden lists Brad Boxberger and Jake McGee as names that have come up. And Houston has even made inquiries on outstanding Reds closer Aroldis Chapman, he adds.

Mariners right-hander Mark Lowe is drawing quite a bit of interest, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports (Twitter link). The journeyman reliever is in the midst of a breakout season, having pitched to an incredible 1.00 ERA with 11.8 K/9, 2.8 BB/9 and a 36.5 percent ground-ball rate in 36 innings this season. Lowe’s average fastball velocity of 95 mph is his best since 2011

Lol at anyone questioning moves that the Giants make.

Getting away from Great American Ballpark should help Lease from a number standpoint. That and isn't the Giants defensive ranked higher at run prevention than the Reds?

Reds are usually at the top of that list. Not sure about this year though.
