SO VERY TRUE jammin jamey! I would try and trade Griffey and Dunn both right now while they have some numbers that stick out to other teams to bait them!

I don't have a problem with trading one or both of them, as long as we get a fair return for them. I do not agree with simply giving them away to free up payroll. Yes, that's a lot of money to use in free agency, but the top guys who can make a difference on the team won't come cheap. Even factoring in Milton's money to get to 33.5 million, part of that will be eaten up by guys getting arbitration raises, so in the end that money will not go as far as Reds fans may think.

Like you said, though, their trade value is probably as high now as it's going to get (especially Griffey), so if they're going to do it, the time is now.
