Votto is a great player, thats why he isn't on the over-hyped-under achieved list.
I still think some of Reyes spending extended time on the DL is not being in a hurry to return to the lineup of a team with nothing to play for. A change of venue and an opportunity to play in this weak division could be a chance for him to shine on a contender.
As for who to trade, Stubbs, Wood, LeCure, Leake, Bailey, Renteria and Gomes are all trade bait from the big leagues in my opinion. Francisco, Alonzo, Cozart, Willis, Herrera are all viable options.
My package: Stubbs, Bailey, Cozart and Willis. Two very average major leaguers (Sell them on the terms "Huge upside, very motivated, gamer, speed player and good potential", all hype terms for lackluster players), a AAA SS and a former AL starter trying to get back to the big show.
