Color Iggy gone.  The Reds won't pay what it would take to resign.  So Iggy now gets no playing time as Peraza gets all the playing time.   Galvis will be here a short time like Gennett or Iggy or Kemp, Puig, Roark & probably Wood .   The Reds are smart to pick up 1 year contract vets over the decades, being they don't have Yankees deep pockets. 

I like Iggy a lot, but his bags are already packed.  That is modern era money ball.
