So is he on the trading block?

It's amazing how a guy with his awesome speed doesn't really scare teams. He doesn't walk and is a below average bunter, so he doesn't get on much at all. His defense is outstanding though, but his overall value isn't anywhere near what most people expected.

He did score 85 runs this year though, so maybe if he could get on more, he could easily score over 100 every year.

If Hamilton could get on more, he would be a perennial all-star. One of the top 3 defensive center fielders in baseball. In just 139 games, he scored 85 runs, stole 59 bases and had 11 triples. But, this has been the same problem for Hamilton every year since he came up, everyone always says, "if he could get on base more..." And I agree with that, if he could get on base more, he would be one of the best players in the game. And I'm not sure what the problem is with his bunting, does he not try to get better at it? Or, can he literally just not do it? We did see some stretches this year from him where he walked a decent amount, and it seemed to be working for him, and then he would just go swing crazy again. Here's my other issue with him, QUIT TRYING TO HIT HOME RUNS!!!! He's not a home run hitter and never will be, never!

With all that being said, if they dumped him, they would be losing an important part of their team. I truly believe that they are better with him than without him.

Btw, no, he's not on the trading block, at least that I've seen.

Jmo ! Jay Bruce on fire for Clev. And Frazier come alive tonight for NY ! But Clev. And NY has coaching !

Frazier is also a .220 hitter since being traded. Are you a fan of Scott Schebler? Because his 25+ homers and plus defense came over in the Frazier deal.

(Yes, I know Frazier's OPS is nearly the same)

Just said Frazier has came alive ! He was batting .200 most of the season !

Literally never watched an inning of baseball all year. Not just Reds but all of baseball. And I'm MLBs major demographic. Might watch a few innings if Indians make the series but that's about it BASEBALL IS BORING!

Neat!

Reds all they talk about is old news ! The same as 3 years ago ! All the same repeat ! Just like last place all the same ! Getting old !

According to baseball experts, the Reds did not make a qualifying offer to Cozart, which means he becomes a free agent.

On a good note, Votto was named a finalist for the NL MVP, along with Giancarlo Stanton and Paul Goldschmidt.

Barnhart wins the golden glove / and no one says a word ? No super star but gets the job done ! Right .

Congrats to Tucker Barnhart on his Gold Glove! Only one error in 2017 and he is the best blocker in the game. Plus, he threw out something like 55% of potential stolen bases.

Congrats to Tucker Barnhart!! He's the best defensive catcher in baseball right now and nobody even says anything about him. We all knew this would come with playing time for him as he won numerous gold gloves in the minors. The funny thing is, he won the gold glove and he's not even supposed to be the every day catcher. What do they do when/if Mesoraco finally becomes healthy.

Votto loses out on MVP by 2 points to Stanton, the closest vote since 1979.

Rumors are spinning about the Twins about being interested in Iglesias.

Hamilton on the blocks San Francisco ?

Haven't seen anything about it on the rumor mills.

Reds lose Scott Feldman, Zack Cozart and Drew Storen to free agency.

Hate to see Cozart Go good/ leadership.

He was set to make like 12 million this coming year or something like that if they picked up his option. I really think they have enough in the middle infield even without him.
