Reds Spring Training 2017

Where do you fly into when you go to Goodyear and what is distance to airport from the playing field? Is is a difficult drive,etc.?

I flew into Mesa on Allegiant but was staying with a friend in North Scottsdale. I'd guess you could be to Goodyear from Mesa in about half an hour. It is crazy how large Phoenix-Metro is, but it is incredibly easy to navigate. Cactus League is very convenient compared to the Grapefruit League when it comes to accessibility. Furthest drive you'd have, assuming you are reasonably located, is 45 minutes.

Reds playing split squad today. Adleman is getting racked by the Cubs, as they batted around in 1st inning. I know Maddon does weird stuff but according the MLB At Bat up date Rizzo led off for them today and Schwarber walks in 1st inning and is replaced by a pinch runner?

[HammerTime]

Adleman is horrible.

[Voice of Reason]

Adleman is horrible.

 

If he would somehow make the rotation, my guess is it would be as a filler roll to save service time off one of the young guys

For sure, I think that is going to happen.

This Reds team coming North may look worse than last years team on paper.

#reds cuts: C Brantly, INF Renda INF Iribarren, P Luetge, P Coleman to the minor leagues; P Romano, P Adleman optioned to the minors

 

 

That leaves Stephenson, Reed, Garrett, Davis, Arroyo competing for last three spots in the rotation. #reds

Arroyo and Reed have to be locks at this point.

 

My guess would be Stephenson fills the last spot.

[HammerTime]

It's not going to be Davis. I'd say Arroyo is a lock at this point. So yeah, I agree Stephenson and Reed.

[LRCW]

Reed was awful yesterday. I could see them using Stephenson as a long man out is pen. They're going to need one.

Or three.

 

They will only keep 4 bench guys.

Some twitter rumors that Rookie Davis has made the starting rotation. I'm a bit shocked by that. Apparently will start April 6th.

 

This Spring

 

15.2 innings

4.02 ERA

3 BB

17 Ks
