The 2025 MLB Winter Meetings are in the books, and while the Cincinnati Reds were linked to a lot of rumors and speculation, they're coming home empty-handed.
Reds fans were thoroughly disappointed on Tuesday when the news broke of Kyle Schwarber's five-year, $150 million deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. Reds fans then became angry once president of baseball operations Nick Krall opened his mouth and talked about the team's scant payroll after just offering to pay Schwarber $25 million per season.
But with the Winter Meetings now in the rearview mirror, contacts have been made, and agents are no doubt weighing some potential offers as well.
