Reds August Game Thread 2024

They're going to have to be very careful with Marte.

He's clearly not major-league ready in terms of his professionalism or production.  He's got a great athletic base to build on but it just isn't translating.  

I'd be cautious of giving up on him.  They rode a wave of excitement about rookie call-ups when they brought him to the majors.  Unlike the others, his was probably premature. 

I hope they don't pay twice for this mistake by giving him away for peanuts.  Start him next year in AAA and let him reset.  I'd do the same with CES.  It would be easy to do if the team had the guts to sign some legit outfielders and let Steer man 1B.  

The results they have from this year should force them to adjust their view of the current rebuild.
