According to Ed Price of AOL Fanhouse, the Reds may be forced to trade one or two of their stars this winter as an overall cost-cutting maneuver.
Cincinnati's payroll stood at $71 million in 2009 and sources have indicated it must be cut closer to $65 million for 2010. "We're going to probably have less to spend this year than we have in the past," Reds general manager Walt Jocketty admitted Tuesday. "It just depends on how [ticket] sales go this offseason." Price suggests Brandon Phillips, Bronson Arroyo or Aaron Harang could be on the move.
