Stone I would have put into that bucket too if not for his December performance. Golden may think there's something there worth keeping him around for.
Cappa and Hubbard have tenure in Cincy, especially Hubbard.
I can see them waiting on one/both until after at least the meat of FA goes through and they can get a replacement.
We don't want another situation where they see Reader gone and decide to scramble for what they think is best option to replace in Rankins.
They should bring someone on first then cut the incumbent.
Cappa is getting cut and Hubbard is not going to be playing on a 11 million dollar contract next season for any team. Pratt will likely be gone as well either by trade or cut.
