    Cody Ross traded to the Marlins

    The Reds made room for Kent Mercker to come off the DL by trading Cody Ross to the Florida Marlins today. Not sure yet who Cincinnati got back.

    "Some guy named Willis?" Ross joked.

    Actually, it'll be a minor leaguer of some sort. Ross is bouncing off the walls with giddiness that he'll get to go somewhere and play. Though we barely got to know him around here, he's a great guy and we at the blog wish him well.

    Bart: Thanks, Dad. But part of this D-minus belongs to God.

    A little surprising, but yet not.

    I wonder if Krivsky picked up Ross to begin with the intent to trade him or if this was some type of recent thinking? I tend to almost think the latter.

    It seems he has some sort of plan in place.

    I think it is recent thinking as well because it is hard to imagine him trying to make a whole lot of things happen just to get some minor leaguer from the Marlins. but then again, his scouts may have seen something in a player that could benefit the Reds soon.

    Anyone know who we got yet?

    Another question, don't we still owe the Dodgers a prospect for Ross?
