Waiting to see what happens after the KB arbitration hearing and the Donaldson signing.

Yeah I think Bryant gets traded too. I'd say to the Braves if I had to guess. Especially if my prediction of Donaldson going to the Nationals happens too.

Seeing the Nats offer could be as much as 4/100. Dayum that’s a lot of cheese.

Reds sign Shogo Akiyama to a three year deal. Curious to see how this lineup is gonna look.

Great get. I was hoping we would land him but we are poor apparently. The fun offseason continues.

Another horrible deal, added to the Horrible deals that Cole/Rendon/Strasburg/Wheeler were given.

Those deals for Cole/Rendon/Stras/Wheeler got, make Pujols deal with Angels, just a bad deal, not horrendous.

I knew he was good last year, but I didn’t know he was 6.1 WAR good.

I couldn’t believe Wheeler got that big of a deal. He’s had a couple good years, but has been hurt or really average most of his career.

He is young and has finally been healthy the past two years. He still has potential to get better.

I'm surprised some young pitchers coming off injury haven't been signed like Jimmy Nelson and Tijaun Walker. Seems their age and production in the past would net them a 1 year deal somewhere by now. Like the White Sox, Phillies, Boston, etc... Since those guys have potential

The Twins are guaranteeing $10 million to get innings from Homer Bailey and top-end performance from Rich Hill upon his return from modified Tommy John. It’s a low-risk pair of signings — and leaves them room to go big for a Josh Donaldson. Twins are a very well-thought-of org.

Twins deals: 3M for Hill plus incentives that can take him above 10M if he’s healthy. 7M for Bailey.

They have to move Galvis, or send him to Cleveland

Galvis is making 5.5 million and is in the last year of his deal. Not moving him isnt going to stop Cincinnati from upgrading the position with as much money as they are trying to throw around.

They will move Galvis if they plan on bringing in Lindor. While they've increased payroll they're not the type of team who is going to pay 5.5m for a back up SS/2B. Adding Lindor will add another 16+ million to payroll and they've stepped away from Ozuna/Nick because of the financial commitment.
Assuming Stenzel goes to Cleveland their OF consist of Aquino, Winkler, Schebler, Jankowski, and Akiyama.

Schebler will never see time in Cincy again. If they move Senzel in a Lindor deal, it'll be:

LF Winker
CF Akiyama
RF Aquino

With Phillip Ervin being the 4th OF. Jankowski may or may not make the team.

Winkler is more of a platoon player it seems, can't hit LHP pitching

Yeah, and Bell gave him very few opportunities to show that he could. He would routinely pinch hit for him in the middle innings if a lefty was brought in. Ervin would likely play a good bit in LF against LHP in this scenario.
