Cincinnati is among the teams linked to Roy Oswalt, but general manager Walt Jocketty said yesterday that the Reds haven?t talked to the right-hander?s agent in a week and ?the last we heard he was going to Texas.?
?That was on Monday,? Jocketty told John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer. ?I don?t know if that deal is still in place. If he doesn?t sign, we?d take another look at it.?
Fay reports that the Reds would need to clear significant payroll space in order to sign Oswalt and their rotation depth chart is also full, even if Aroldis Chapman is assigned to the bullpen. Fay speculates that Homer Bailey would be the most likely starter moved, although the Reds would obviously love to unload Bronson Arroyo?s contract if they could.
As for Jocketty hearing that Oswalt was going to Texas, the Rangers also have a full rotation and reports last week indicated that signing Oswalt was ?unlikely.? Other teams said to be in the mix are the Red Sox, Phillies, and Cardinals, this late in the offseason he?s running into similar roster/payroll issues everywhere.
