i know we're still a few months away but once we get March madness out of the way Baseball will be next up. My Reds aren't really considered to be a major player in the NL Central, but you have to have some sort of hope.
The biggest loss this year were Latos. Cueto will of course be the No #1. Looks like Bailey will move to #2 spot and #3 will go to Leake. Reds are going to have problems with that #4 and #5 spot. I guess spring training will determine those spots.
The pick of Marlyn Byrd is a so so move. He should move to the clean up spot in between Votto and Bruce. Byrd K's a lot though. He has power but he's also 37.
Hamilton will lead off and he should just keep getting better. His speed is fun to watch. He should expand on his steals from last year and lead the majors this year.
Line up should look something like this right now.
1. Hamilton
2. Phillips
3. Votto
4. Byrd
5. Bruce
6. Morasco
7. Frazier
8. Cozart
Once again Chapman will be fun to watch closing games out.
Not sure what to expect this year, but I'll gang with them as long as they are in contention!!!
GO REDS!!!!!!!
