Ryan Hanigan traded
Cincinnati Reds catcher Ryan Hanigan was traded to Tampa Bay Rays in a three team trade today. Reds get LHP prospect David Holmberg from Arizona Diamondbacks. Source I personally hate to see Ryan Hanigan go because he did a great job with the pitchers. In my mind it looks like Walt Jocketty is focusing more on offense the defense now and this could mean Brandon Phillips is next.
#Reds trading catcher Ryan Hanigan to #Rays, sources tell me and @jonmorosi. May be three-team deal.

#DBacks get RHP Justin Choate, player to be named, per source. Bell, Hanigan, $$ to #Rays, Holmberg to #Reds, Choate and PTBN to #DBacks.
