After some rumblings earlier this week, it now appears that Howie Kendrick is unlikely to be signed by the Cincinnati Reds this offseason. The latest Reds rumors, courtesy of Bobby Nightengale of the Cincinnati Enquirer, says that a league source claims the Tampa Bay Rays are the favorites to land the World Series hero.
A few days ago, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, mentioned in a tweet that the Cincinnati Reds should be added to the list of teams looking to land Kendrick this offseason. The idea is sound, seeing as how Cincinnati is looking to add offense this winter.
