The story goes that Zack Cozart is still a member of the Cincinnati Reds because there just simply hasn’t been a great market for shortstops of late. He was nearly moved to the Seattle Mariners at last year’s trade deadline before that deal fell through, reportedly because the Reds simply didn’t like the offer enough. Then, of course, the Mariners - the one real team with known interest in adding a shortstop - went out and didn’t just trade for Jean Segura, but lobbed a $70 million contract his way, too.
