The Reds need one more high leverage bullpen arm, and Miller is my main target. The Reds will have to pay a premium, and I'm not sure this package alone gets it done. But I do think it makes sense. Petty will have success in the majors eventually. Marte was bouncing back from a lost 2024 before pulling an oblique. He's due back in a couple weeks. Holman is a solid arm, though there are several pitchers (Floyd, Acuna, Serwinowski) who can slot in here. Barlow is the right hander most likely to get replaced by Miller, but I wouldn't be against adding the younger Maxwell or Zulueta instead.

Reds need OF power bat, that is my main target and has been for years. Reds need hitting, not pitching.
