Brandon Nimmo will be headed to the Reds in the trade for Jay Bruce, Yahoo's Tim Brown reports.
The lowest WAR by a player who slugged .550 in a full season was 1.1. Jay Bruce is at 0.7.
The Jay Bruce trade to the Mets is complete pending physicals, says a source.
Bye bye Brandon Nimmo.
Hello Jay Bruce.
Lucroy would be nice......100 times better then what they have.
Separate of Bruce: Mets still in the Lucroy conversations. Both Bruce and Lucroy can be under team control 2017, through options.

Hot stove is heating up
Red Sox are talking about Chris Sale......wow
The Cubs are having talks on the Angels' Joe Smith; so are some other teams, as well.
Mets are hoping to get a spark to their struggling offense.
I don`t know if Jay Bruce alone can make a difference..
Dodgers could be close to acquiring both Rich Hill and Josh Reddick from A's
The Yankees have not yet asked Carlos Beltran to waive his no-trade clause as we move two hours from trade deadline, according to a source. Beltran has the right to veto a trade to 15 teams. If the Yankees deal him, it will be the clearest signal that they are giving up on the 2016 season. Beltran is the club's best hitter on a team that doesn't hit much. If the Yankees keep him, they could offer him the qualifying offer for next year.
How about Conforto for Lucroy....I`ll do that in a second.
Hearing that the Dodgers, even after reeling in Hill, are still talking with the Rays about their starters.
Dodgers want Archer.
Dodgers want Archer.
UPDATE: A source tells ESPN's Jerry Crasnick that a medical issue might be holding up the Jay Bruce deal.
