How much longer does Bruce get the free pass from the fans? You got to score runners from 3rd with less than 2 outs.

 

I am more than pleased with his defense, but he is (should be) better than a sub .220 hitter.

 

I'll give him a free pass because he's still figuring out the MLB game. If he's not yet ready then that's on the Reds . He's out there because they said he's going to be out there. Unfortunately, they have turned it into a learn-on-the-job scenario. Its not always pretty in that case.

Yeah, personally I can live with the low batting average as long as the defense and power is there. He's just got to learn to hit the breaking ball.
