"We're in a tough situation here," says Griffey, whose team improved to 13-20 with Monday's 5-3 win against the Cubs. "We either turn things around or they start getting rid of everybody around here.

"My situation is different only because I can tell them where I want to go. I want to be in position to win a championship. I'm not strong-arming anybody, but that's the way it is."

Griffey, who enters today hitting .229 with four home runs and 15 RBI, says he expects the Reds to approach him before the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline seeking his approval for a trade.

For me it will be a sad day to see him out of the Reds uniform.

I hope the Cubs get him, they need a left-handed bat in the outfield.

Not much chance of that. He will go to the AL so he can DH some. He should stay healthier that way too.

I wonder if he'll wind up with the Angels.

I fully expect him to go back to Seattle. He already laid the ground work last season when they had the series there. If he goes anywhere else, I will be stunned.

I love the Reds. I grew up following them. I'm from Louisiana where we have no team so I picked the "Big Red Machine." Having said that, It's not like Griffey has made a major impact on the team. Sometimes you have to cut your losses, and (Listen to me GM) get some pitching.

Griffey is pretty confident for a guy who hasn't helped any team in 10 years. Says he wants to go to a championship team. What championship team wants a left fielder who is hittin .229. Retire already.
