Again, Moustakes has power numbers like Suarez.  You want both in the line-up.  Then hope Aquino puts up August power numbers.  Then hope Votto puts up numbers like he use to, or at least uses his lifetime on base % to walk across the plate when Suarez, Moustakes and Aquino launch RBI's.

The big signing is Moustakes.  He put up HUGE numbers in 2019.  You get him in the line-up if you have to sit Votto, but since that isn't happening, Second Base.

IF Votto has a comeback player year,  the combo of Votto, Moustakes, Suarez could be the best power hitting infield in baseball. Add in Galvis for extra bonus points.

Wait! You mean the biggest FA signing in team history isn't going to just be a fill-in player when the score is lopsided and the Reds losing 18-0 in the 9th inning? He'd be a pretty darn good utility player, but if they use him that way Bell will have his head on a pike before the ASG..
