Mike Moustakas is the second-highest paid players on the Cincinnati Reds roster and offloading his contract may single-handedly accomplish the mission to realign payroll. Why trading hims means only good things for the Reds and how they could accomplish it. Also, a thought on the Hall of Fame announcements that have been made and why the Hall of Fame is another thing that MLB has gotten wrong.

Mike Moustakas had a rough year in 2021 and trading him right now would be at the lowest point in his value. However, trading him would also make trading one of Luis Castillo, Sonny Gray, or Tyler Mahle superfluous and that would be an amazing development in the Cincinnati Reds offseason plans.

The trade may sound difficult, due to his value, but the Milwaukee Brewers pulled off a similar trade with Jackie Bradley Jr and actually received return value for him. Not to mention the fact that the Toronto Blue Jays were also in on the negotiations before the Boston Red Sox finalized the deal with the Brew Crew. The Reds could contact the Colorado Rockies about their desire to upgrade third base, the Washington Nationals about backing up Carter Kieboom, or the Arizona Diamondbacks about shoring up their lineup. If the Reds can sell another team on the bounce back of Moose, then they will reap the benefits of not having to trade a marquee talent from their rotation.

Also, why it is important the MLB celebrates its great players while their still living.
