According to Tom Groeschen of the Cincinnati Enquirer, Reds general manager Walt Jocketty said Saturday afternoon that his club plans to sit tight as the August 31 waiver trade deadline approaches.
"Nothing has changed," Jocketty told Groeschen via text message. This backs up a similar report that was published earlier in the week by the Enquirer's John Fay. Not a single team showed interest in closer Francisco Cordero and his monstrous contract, and it appears the Reds will hang onto trade candidate Jonny Gomes as well.
