  2. Hope it’s a good return. Reds have some good prospects and Littell is a solid pitcher

  9. So, I assume Taj is getting called back up then. They don’t have any other starting pitchers I believe in the minors that are ready. Shane isn’t ready yet.

  10. You were a great reliever-to-starter innings eater, Littell. Good luck!

    Now what’d we get?

  11. It’s pretty sad when we’re selling to the Reds who just lost a series but we’re that bad.

  13. We always know what we lose but never know what we get till later smh

  15. more or less copying my response in the PGT, but im curious what the return is. Seems like pitching market gets better and better with returns so we should be able to get something good, but it will be interesting to see what a guy like littell is valued at.

    Sadly the move makes too much sense regardless if we won or not, we have a ton of young starters and more when shane comes back (even if thats next year at this point) so itd be better to get something for littell before he walks

  18. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us, sorry we couldn’t get the win for you 🫡🫡🫡

  21. Thanks for everything Zack- you were awesome. Now what Christopher Morel-esque project did we get in return??

  22. And with this trade, the Rays will acquire 3 single A players. The first one is missing half his body and has no movement in his remaining arm, the second is blind, and the third, we don’t know what is wrong with him. He keeps spinning in circles smacking himself in the face. The Rays pitching staff proclaim they can fix them within the next 4 years. Sources say.

  24. I was hoping that the Cubs would land Littell. Tampa likes ex-Cub minor league relievers (Bigge, Manny Rodriguez).

  25. So the man pitches an excellent game to watch us blow it and we decided let’s ship off the bright side of the pitching we have and gain nothing MLB ready… obviously the rays said we aren’t playing for the playoffs or next season either.. Newsflash new owners, to build attendance the first step is have a winning product. Then establish players the fans will love and want to see so even in slumps people show up to see them.

  28. While I’m sad to see him gone ~ I really understand why the rays are selling. The bullpen is already atrocious

  30. Supposed to be getting 2 players back. No names yet. Hopefully it’s guys who are playing somewhere above single A

  33. supposedly the return for Littel is supposed to include a player from the actual Reds roster 👀

  34. Might as well, the bullpen put gasoline on the fire every night. Can we also trade Baker?
