Playing Wayne Kriskey

Ok, here is what I think should be done to prepare the reds for next year and the future, throwing the white flag for this one.
- Trade Adam Dunn to the White Sox for Bobby Jenks, Ryan Sweeney, and a prospect Adam Dunn needs to be traded. He is never going to be good at defense, not striking out, and hitting for average. The white sox could use a power hitter, and that is what they get. We get a closer which is badly needed for now and the future, and a great outfield prospect who is very close to being major league ready.
- Release Mike Stanton, Eric Milton, Chad Moeller, and Kyle Louse. We do not need any of these guys. They are ether too old to be effective, or just not good at all. Louse is way to inconsistent, and Milton and Stanton are too consistent with being awful.
- Trade Scott Hatteberg to a playoff contender for prospects. He will be a nice bench addition to a playoff-contending team, and we get rid of his contract.
- Keep Jared Burton and Josh Hamilton on the team. Obviously, Hamilton will be kept on the roster all season so that he does not go back to the Devil Rays. But, it is not sure if Burton will be kept on the roster all season. He has great stuff, and looks to be one year away from finally putting it together.
- Trade Griffey for prospects. Griffey deserves to be on a winning team playing as good as he is right now.
- Sign a catcher in the offseason and don't re-sign David Ross. Here is a list of possible catcher free agents after this season by mlb4u.com:

Henry Blanco	Chicago Cubs
Johnny Estrada	Milwaukee Brewers
Sal Fasano	Toronto Blue Jays
Wiki Gonzalez	Chicago White Sox
Toby Hall	Chicago White Sox
Adam Melhuse	Oakland Athletics
A.J. Pierzynski	Chicago White Sox
Mike Redmond	Minnesota Twins
David Ross	Cincinnati Reds
Jason Varitek	Boston Red Sox
Vance Wilson	Detroit Tigers
Gregg Zaun	Toronto Blue Jays

In my opinion Redmond and Estrada look like realistic, good possibilities
So, those are the moves that I believe should be made. Here is the outlook of the roster next year if they did happen:
Lineup:
C: I like Redmond or Estrada, but others are available
1B: Joey Votto
2B: Brandon Phillips
3B: Edwin Encarnacion
CF: Ryan Freel
RF: Josh Hamilton
LF: Platoon of Jeff Conine and Ryan Sweeny
Starting Rotation:
1. Aaron Harang
2. Bronson Arroyo
3. Homer Bailey
4. Matt Belisle
5. Phil Dumatrait / Kirk Sarloos/ Bobby Livingston/ Elizardo Ramirez
Bullpen:
C: Bobby Jenks
S: Gary Majewski
S: Bill Bray
M: Todd Coffey
M: Brad Salmon
M: John Countlangus
L: Kirk Sarloos/ Victor Santos
NOTE: There are still plenty relievers left including Jared Burton, Marcus McBeth, and Eddie Guardado
Bench:
Norris Hopper
Jeff Keppinger
Jeff Conine/ Ryan Sweeny(platoon)
Javier Valentein
Jerry Gil/ Chris Dickerson

I think that that is a winning ball club. What do you all think?
