I think the season is way beyond saving so go ahead and try to get some talking done. Last time i did some research, both trades for Griffey and Dunn did not look like they would give much back at all. The only thing that the Reds could do right now is pretty much free up all of that tied up money without getting any players back in return. Also, I think Krivsky wants a big trade if he is going to be giving up these guys. Along with freeing up the money, he wants a addition to the team that will be able to contribute. I agree with this stand because I don't want to trade Griffey just for the sake of trading him, if it is going to happen then the Reds should get a nice player in return.

Usually there is a trade-off of sorts when you deal a high-salaried player like Griffey or Dunn. If the Reds agree to pay part of their salary, then they will get back a better package of players in return. If not, then the players offered will not be as attractive. Personally, I think the Reds should pay part of the salary and get a better player back.
