However, seeing how this season is playing out, as I am guessing that nearly no one had the Reds in the division lead at this point; I'm going to come forward and say that the success is either the complete result of luck, or just maybe the management realized what they had growing in prospects and things are just going as planned.
Either way, as a Reds fan I am just surprised and impressed by the way this team shows resolve and is getting it done at the plate. If the coaches decide to pull the lead off hitter and move him to the 8 slot, who am I to second guess their strategy?
Yep. I haven't really been invested in the Reds much in the last decade, for the most part. Check in here and there but just been ignoring them since it didn't seem the FO had any idea what they were doing. These young guys are exciting and fun to watch. I've been back in this year, paying closer attention, then diving in with both feet when EDLC came on board. It's just been so much fun to watch and i'm enjoying the ride, regardless of decisions being made.
