C’mon the Reds manager David Bell says: ‘We’re getting better in a really weird way’. The players traded are happy to leave. I almost feel sorry for Votto.
The weird thing is the A’s players aren’t happy to leave for the most part. Yoenis Cespedes was really upset to leave, he wanted to stay there his whole career, even knowing they were cheapskates. Olson and Chapman didn’t want to leave.
