The Reds have yet to approach second baseman Brandon Phillips about a possible contract extension. Phillips wants to remain with the team for years to come. He is in the final guaranteed year of a four-year, $27 million contract, he has a $12 million club option for 2012 that carries a $1 million buyout. "I've always said from Day 1 that this is where I want to be at," Phillips said. "I thought there might be some talks going on during the season but I haven't heard anything all year. I was very disappointed about it. It hurts bad that this is where I want to be at and I've paid blood, sweat and tears for this organization, but the only thing I can do is thank them very much for giving me a second opportunity. I can't really trip about anything that much. I came here and got my career back to where it should be going."
