Reds still keeping conversations open with Sox on Robert despite recent outfield additions per Whittenmeyer.

Krall just trying to create some leverage. 

Getz isn't going to get Petty, the OFer and the pick regardless, especially from a low cash flow team that can't afford to write checks to solve problems.

Has that rumor been of whom Getz is looking to acquire or whom the Reds are offering?

That's what the Reds reporter either speculated on, or educatedly speculated on. in his first article on this topic.  We have never really gotten a clear report of the Reds are offering the following...

Don't know. I thought that was presented as the level of what the Reds were offering, and that Getz was trying to get another player added.

This is what we know. Nightengale reported on active discussions with Reds and Mets and said Sox are targeting pitching in return. Wittenmyer reported Sox could eat as much as $10 million and he specifically mentioned Brandon Williamson, Chase Petty and Julian Aguiar. The comp pick hasn't been reported anywhere. 

I'd take any combination of those arms plus the comp pick for Robert right now pretty easily.

Which probably means it is some combination of the Reds not wanting to give up that much talent and/or the Sox not wanting to eat $10 million, since they haven’t agreed to a deal yet.

I'm surprised Sosa and Robert are still on this team to be honest, I figured they would both be gone before January 

I’m not shocked they’re on the team, I’m more shocked that Benintendi is on the team still. Surely there has to be a bad contract for bad contract swap
