The Reds also have some serious voids in their pitching ranks, especially if Nick Martinez declines his Qualifying Offer and becomes a free agent. Preface prefaced, it appears the Reds and Kansas City Royals are having some preliminary talks about a deal that would send 2B Jonathan India to KC in exchange for RHP Brady Singer in a swap of players who were once teammates at the University of Florida. Sources: Reds, Royals discussing trade of Jonathan India, Brady Singer. Singer posted a solid 3.71 ERA/3.93 FIP in 179.2 IP for Kansas City last season, and he’s topped 150+ IP in each of the last trio of years. It could well be something the Reds are willing to do regardless of what decision Martinez makes this week.
