We aren't taking on money. He's going to be 36 and a FA. 
What would be the purpose? 

We would take on the money for a year to be clear of Votto and Bruce's contracts. Just like an NBA trade for an expiring contract. The Reds would just let Bautista walk after the season or maybe even flip him at the deadline. The real point of the trade would be clearing future money and getting more prospects.
