June 2016 - Cincinnati Reds Wiretap

The Cincinnati Reds have announced that Dick Williams has been promoted from general manager to president of baseball operations.

Walt Jocketty, formerly the club's president, has moved into an advisory role.

The move has long been expected.

The Cincinnati Reds are willing to listen to offers for Billy Hamilton and the Texas Rangers are among the teams interested in a deal.

The Rangers aren't optimistic that they'll be able to re-sign Ian Desmond and Carlos Gomez is a free agent as well.

Hamilton hasn't contributed much at the plate, but his defense and baserunning continue to make him valuable.
