nkufan23 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Share Posted June 25, 2012 Didn't he drop down a level? He was playing AAA for the Tribe but was 3rd in line at 1st Base...He never put up very good numbers at AAA but he hasn't been to bad at AA in his career and he is blocked in AAA...So he is down a level but he also hasn't played much above the AA level in his career...Either way it's good to see him start out hot, the Reds released Guzman their AA 1st Baseman to find him a spot to play...He probably isn't ever going to factor into the Reds equation at the Big League level but it's still nice to see him to get off to a good start...

nkufan23 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Share Posted June 25, 2012 Didi made a ridiculous play at SS over the weekend as well. Blue Wahoos top Lookouts 6-4 - WRCBtv.com | Chattanooga News, Weather & Sports They say he is more Big League ready defensively than any SS in the Reds organization including Cozart and Janish which is saying pretty much...He hasn't been swinging a bad stick either...

He's also stolen at least one base in nine of the past 10 games.

HammerTime Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Didi has to have a place to go for that to happen. They should go ahead and move him to the OF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Slick Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I agree, unless they are planning on trading Didi in a deadline deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkufan23 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Didi has to have a place to go for that to happen. They should go ahead and move him to the OF. I agree with this as well...he has the range to play SS but is still making a ton of errors...His speed would be much more valuable in CF...Plus with BP locked up and Cozart and Didi ahead of him he is pretty well blocked in the INF... However the Reds have Harris, Costanzo and Negron at AAA and at least one of them could be DFAd to make room for Didi...Janish would play 3rd and Didi would play SS and then Billy would get moved up to play SS at AA...

nkufan23 Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 Cody Puckett is looking like a guy that could make the Reds opening day Roster next season as a bench utility guy...He is a small guy but has some good pop and decent speed...He has also played everywhere but 1st and Catcher in his career...As long as the Reds don't bring in any Wilson Valdez/Willie Harris type guys next season Puckett should have a decent shot...

nkufan23 Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 And he gives up a hit but still a very impressive outing so far...The Reds could use a lefty with a mid 90s heater and good command...He needs to work on the slider and changeup but they are improving...He has basically cruised thru the system so far with no true secondary pitches...I am very excited about Corcino and Cingrani and hope they get some time in AAA soon...
