Reds bid $200000 for Dizzy Dean in swap talks
Cincinnati Reds offer $200000 cash for Dizzy Dean as Major League teams chase the Cardinals ace. Branch Rickey says they want players too, with Lew Riges or Paull Derringer among possible pieces. Brooklyn and Pittsburgh circles circle Vaughan and other names while Cubs bow out, making room for a Dean market surge in early December 1936. Local fans praise a Dean arrival as boosting Crosley Field attendance and Cincinnati business.
