I don't think they would trust Reed, to be honest. Their weaknesses are C, 2B and LF, and the bullpen. And Infante has been better this season than 2012. They don't need Keppinger, as they have Ramon Santiago for that role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always on again, off again...but yeah, they probably would have trusted a veteran more than Reed...that's how Leyland thinks (just like Ozzie in that regard). That, and how quickly they temporarily gave up on the kid (Rondon?) who was anointed the closer coming into ST and didn't even make it onto the OD roster. Definitely "win now" mode...and I wouldn't give up a lot to get Reed when there's just as good a chance Al Alburquerque straightens himself out.

I don't know if it was "trusted" as much as he was a guy that they could get at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harfman77 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Depending on Biogenesis, they could be looking for a SS by the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
