Yesterday the Royals traded the ever popular PTBNL to the Reds for righty Brad Salmon. The move is not expected to affect the 40-man roster.
Kind of a surprise the Reds would trade Salmon, he doesn't have much of a track record but was pretty darn good in limited action in '07 (0-1/4.12). It appears he is a stud against right handers holding them to a .213 BAA while striking out 18 in 16.2 innings but struggles against lefties. He could be insurance in case one of Nunez/Peralta/Davies can't hold onto their job.
