That Greinke trade is no bueno.

I think the Reds landing Kemp was a huge mistake, I would have given up another top 25 prospect to avoid that contract so we could use that money elsewhere, maybe for a Keuchel or a Pollock.
That’s why we give up Kemp and 3 mid-level prospects for an underperforming, overpaid started to see if he can regain his form in a new scenery.
Throwing in Someone like TJ Friedl or Juan Graterol might make this trade more appealing, but the goal is to get better team control for a bona fide starter rather than paying 20+mil for a guy who’s heart has always been in LA.

If you think Greinke is an underperforming starter, this probably isn’t a conversation worth having.

Greinke will be a borderline All-Star for the rest of his career, not underperforming.

The Reds would be absolutely mad if they gave both of those prospects for Gray. Take Shed Long. We got other infield talent.
