So as we know the Reds are most likely out of the National League Central Race and two top catching prospects in Devin Mesoraco and Yasmani Grandal. This could make Ramon Hernandez expendable (though I'm still nort sure why Ryan Hannigan is the starter). If he is put on Waivers it's highly suspected that the Giants will put a claim on him. However if we are still behind when he goes down, I think we should make a claim to block them. Hernandez is type a free agent so the Reds probably won't give him away. Though there's also the possibility that the Reds don't like our offer but that still prevents the Giants from getting him
