The Cincinnati Reds Are Prioritizing Trades Over Free Agency, Have Inquired About Luis Robert Jr.
Through the first two days of the Winter Meetings, the Reds are still looking to bolster their lineup and Reds President of Baseball Operations, Nick Krall, said they’re working on some trades.
“We’ve probably had more discussions on trades than free agents at this point,” Krall told Charlie Goldsmith.
At this point in the season, Krall mentioned that most teams are looking to trade big leaguers for other big leaguers as opposed to trading prospects.
“You’ll find it’s a lot of major league for major league (players in talks),” Krall said. “If you fill one hole, you’ve got to figure out how to backfill this one. It’s been a lot of conversations.”

Luis sounds good but sending top prospects no . He is injury prone.
This is why I was against the Jonathan India trade. We traded him for a pitcher and now we get to hear let’s trade Abbott to fill a hole in the lineup. Or now there’s a hole at first base when Spencer Steer could’ve played first. But it looks like they’ll have steer in the outfield. You can never have too much pitching except for when you have no lineup and you need to trade one for someone.
Need Luis Robert Jr bad, coming from the White Sox blunder I'd say we can give and bend a little if we have to. No reason to not go after him and get him signed. He's a 5 star glove and his consistency and production with the bat will speak for itself he's the no brainer in my opinion. If we don't care about competing past a wildcard spot then fine don't do it 👍
