Greetings from D.C.

Four and a half hours from the dealine and all is quiet on the Reds front -- at least publicly. I just arrived at the Mayflower Hotel.

I showed at CVG at 6 a.m. for a 8:30 flight. Not a veteran traveler move. Misread my itinerary. Guess it was better than showing up at 10.

Anyway, I don't have a strong feeling one way or another about whether Adam Dunn will be traded. With all that time at airport, I was tempted to call Wayne Krivsky and see if waking him up from a deep sleep might get him to say something other than: "It takes two to make a trade." Doubtful.
