Yonder has less than 100 professional at-bats right now, even counting his time in the Arizona Fall League.

 

Unless he just explodes in Double-A next spring, there is no need to look at him in the Reds' picture for at least a year, maybe two.

I'd prefer to see Votto remain at 1st.

Left Field...

 

It worked for Braun.

Didn't Colorado get Tavares for nothing?

I thought he, along with some of Reds farm hands, were playing in the Hawaiian League this winter.

It was already working for Braun. :lol:

Moving to left sure didn't hurt him.

 

I like Dickerson though. I know he only had a short showing, but looked really good.

I'm amazed that so many fans are including him in the plans already.

I don't think it's that crazy to expect him here in 2010.

Reds have no interest in tavares because of his inability to reach base....They do have strong interest in 3B Atkins though.

Lance hot it on the head today, Tavares is Corey Patterson for poor teams.

Maybe so ... I was thinking he was in Arizona, but it could be Hawaii.

.331 OBP, I think I would pass on that type of leadoff hitter. I would rather take my chances with a Dickerson/Hairston platoon in CF. Atkins is intersting, but what would the Reds deal?

Even as good as he was last year, Hairston's career OBP is .330 ...

 

Away from GABP, his OBP was a rousing .307 ...
