I would assume the Red Sox are in on him as well. If they want to bring in Baldelli, they'll need someone with infield/outfield flexibility.
Hairston's speed off the bench is valuable as well.
Then they can move Lugo and get a bat for the bench.

Baldelli
Cash/Young catcher acquisition
Corner IF bat type(Millar?)

The Reds just got rid of the injury prone Freel so why bring back the injury prone JHJ? Especially if it means that Toothpick Baker gets one of his toys back to play with in 2009....
I mean, when JHJ is starting every day, leading off and hitting .220, I just can't wait to read that Toothpick didn't know he was in an 0 for 24 and 2 for 42 slump and only found out when a reporter asked him about it.

either peter schmuck or roch said that the orioles showed minor interest in bringing hairston back to fill in as a reserve or insurance if they traded b-rob. but with the new trade for freel i doubt the orioles will be on the market for hairston
