2016 Cincinnati Redlegs

[EasternDspy]

Adam Duval played really good at end of season I think he will get a chance in left.

[Chieftain2009]

I think left field is the only spot up for grabs. Whoever has the better Spring will get the starting spot on opening day.

[bighead]

Who will be the 2016 strike out king. Bruce or Hamilton is my bet.lol

[bighead]

There is know out field pos up for grabs is a joke that was most of the problem
D in cf nothing in left or right.

[EasternDspy]

What?

[bighead]

Bruce should of been 1st to hit the road CF has got to hit LF is a must bad move on Frazier Homer might not pitch again and ST Louis has pick two Reds up now Chapman was the best move.

[bighead]

The out field was most of the problem not hitting know one is gone.

[Chieftain2009]

I think Hamilton will break out this year, as long as he keeps the ball on the ground and stops trying to hit homers. If he raises his average, he's an All-Star in CF. Bruce needs to be more consistent if they are keeping him. He has the potential just not the confidence.

[bighead]

Bruce they can't give him away he will start the 2016 season as a Red bench him.

Gonna be a bad year for the reds

I like what the reds are doing. I was a little disappointed in not getting more in return for ole chappy but with the investigations being held over his head, price tag dropped. I like selling Todd because I think he will regress this year (his second half stats showed that). Pitching is young, and has a lot of upside. Can they move Bruce and Phillips? I want to see Phillips gone but with the no trade clause, he's staying in Cincy. They need to clear as much money as possible, this next FA market will be very very plentiful!! Can Devin catch? Im thinking leave him in LF (so he can get more plate appearances), and platoon C position like they did this past season.

[Chieftain2009]

Pena is gone, he signed with the Cardinals. So it's either Mesoraco or Barnhardt behind the plate. Barnhardt can hit, I wouldn't mind moving Mes. to left field, as long as he can field the position. Cozart will be at SS, Suarez to 3rd? They have to have Suarez in the lineup, he has some work to do in fielding, but holy cow can he rake.

The young arms have HUGE upside

[bighead]

Never played LF in his life in Mesoraco LOL o

[Chieftain2009]

Never played LF in his life in Mesoraco LOL o

They experimented with it a few games in Louisville last year coming off his injury. It didn't turn out too well.

Cody Reed and Amir Garrett are ranked #7 and #9 for Lefty pitching prospects in the minors in ALL of baseball! Robert Stephenson is the #7th ranked Righthander. These kids have some serious upside and some serious stuff. Reed really put it together last year before and after the Cueto trade.(Plus got John Lamb and Brandon Finnegan ) Cody sits around 92-94 and can touch 97. A good breaking pitch and a quickly developing change. Garrett is a 6:5 athlete who has just been a full time pitcher for close to 2 years now. Played hoops at St Johns for 3 yrs I believe. Good basketball player. Stephensons stuff is overpowering. 3 plus-plus pitches. What has hurt him has been command. Seems to be a whole lot more coachable as a young man than Homer was and they havent rushed him.

You just might be right. But we will hope for the best

[EasternDspy]

Don't know about you guys but I'm really excited to watch these pups grow up. I wish Phillips would just accept a trade so we can develop young talent. I think the Tigers will trade for Bruce in the next few weeks and hopefully we get Moyà or Fullmer even if we have to send them a player or 2. The pitching is super deep I hope they realize how dominant Finnagan was as a back end of the bullpen guy and let him close.

[bighead]

Today they said Bailey will be No.1 man and has not pitch in 2 years with a era in the high 5'snot that good when healthy
