If the Reds don't get hot real quick and Puig doesn't intend to extend, then I think he'll be gone in two weeks since there isn't an August 31st deadline anymore. It is up to Puig and his agent, not the Reds brass. He may want to play in Cincinnati . . . or he may want to play in a big city . . . or he may want to play on a winning ball club again . . . or he may want the most money and he's probably not going to get that by limiting himself to just one bid from one suitor.
When you talk about things that Puig may want, those are good points that we fans don’t consider enough. We just don’t know the whole story to any of the inside stuff. We can only go by what we know but that inside stuff can change everything. I get that some fans are afraid to regress back to the last 4 years, they don’t want to risk that. They’re still in last place though, so you’re not risking much. The Reds need a good business plan and then try to stick to that plan. They seem erratic in their planning.
