New Yasiel Puig trade rumor

by Steve Mancuso — July 30, 2019 in Hot Stove

Jon Heyman reports it:

Braves have shown some interest in Yasiel Puig, one of many OF available. They do not, however, appear engaged on Reyes, Castellanos, Dyson or Peralta.

I covered Yasiel Puig in my 24-hour guide to the trade deadline. I don’t think the Reds should be eager to trade their right fielder, but neither should they be strongly set against it. Important: Atlanta has the combination of a group of talented young players plus strong postseason ambition that could produce a too-good-to-refuse offer for the Reds.

Steve Mancuso is a lifelong Reds fan who grew up during the Big Red Machine era. He’s been writing about the Reds for more than ten years. Steve’s fondest memories about the Reds include attending a couple 1975 World Series games, being at Homer Bailey’s second no-hitter and going nuts for Jay Bruce at Clinchmas. Steve was also at all three games of the 2012 NLDS, but it’s too soon to talk about that.
