Bronson Arroyo hasn't heard from the Cincinnati Reds since their season ended last week.
Arroyo, who will be a free agent this winter, is aware he may have made his final start with the Reds.
"I've heard not a word," Arroyo said. "The sense I have, I don't think they'll make me a [qualifying] offer. They would have to offer me $13-14 million for me to stay anyway."
Arroyo has maintained that he looking for, at minimum, a two-year contract on the free agent market.
"I haven't had one conversation with them," Arroyo said. "They could be taking care of other things or other issues. The sense I get is by not having any conversation with me, is they're going in a different direction. [Assistant GM] Bob Miller usually likes to get a leg up on these things and have a conversation.
"It's a question of whether they want a $28 million rotation or a $42 million rotation. They have Cingrani and probably don't want to push the envelope money-wise."
