I'm certainly hoping that Wood, Kemp and Puig will pull the Reds out of the basement, but I'm betting that LA didn't send them to the Reds because they wanted to do them a favor.  It'll be interesting to see how they work out, as I'm thinking that it has to be a bit of a blow to the ego, to get shipped from one of the top Baseball markets in America to a cellar team in one of the smallest markets.
