The Cincinnati Reds addressed one of their biggest needs on Wednesday night after signing reliever Emilio Pagán to a two-year, $20 million contract. With the back of the bullpen now under lock and key, the Reds can turn their attention to the lineup and perhaps land one of the biggest bats available in free agency — Kyle Schwarber.
The offseason whispers of a Schwarber homecoming have become much louder of late, with even industry sources and baseball insiders all suggesting that the the Reds have a real chance to bring Schwarber back to the Cincinnati area.
