It wasn't long ago that Nick Krall did everything but flat-out confirm that the Cincinnati Reds weren't going to trade Hunter Greene. When asked about the prospect of moving Greene this winter at the GM Meetings, Krall's comments were pointed.
“Look, we’re trying to do what’s best for our team. I don’t want to rule out anything,” Krall said, speaking specifically about Greene. It was typical GM-speak, or at least so it seemed. He'd go on to add, “We’re looking to figure out how to get better, but right now that’s not on the table.”
Case closed, right?
