Last winter, the Cincinnati Reds made a bold, blockbuster trade that brought Yasiel Puig, Matt Kemp, Alex Wood, and Kyle Farmer to town. Might the Reds look to make another blockbuster trade this offseason? Francisco Lindor, quite possibly the best shortstop in the game, is assumed to be available. What would it take for Cincinnati to land the four-time All-Star?
Cincinnati lost shortstop Zack Cozart to free agency two years ago. Cozart manned the position for seven seasons, but in 2018, the Reds decided to move forward with José Peraza as the shortstop of the future.
