Wilson Betemit 11:$2.6M, 12:FA

RP - Diego Moreno, MiLB - AAS $910k

Reds confirm. I been looking to add solid arms and a CI. I get this done with this deal and acquire some specs to keep an eye on. I do lose Minor who has been destroying AAA and 2 great hitting specs but this helps me contend now..

Royals to confirm

[KC Royals GM (Kevin)]

this was a move i made for the future, i might be able to backdoor my way into the playoffs this year if i dont do this deal but i don't think i can do damage if i get in, hamtilon has been miserable but might be able to improve his on-base skills, minor is a good mid-rotation sp similar in projection to a brett myers type i think, and grandal, although blocked by mesoraco, has been very impressive with his k:bb rate and his power

confirmed
