Um, yeah Gramps, I think you're a bit too hopeful:
1. He's not a, "Star Prospect;" he's 29 years old. If he hasn't cracked a ML roster by now, he's nowhere. Maybe in Japan.
2. He played last year in the best hitters park in Minor's history; seriously, look at all of the no-name players who put up gawdy numbers in LV.
3. He doesn't seem like a bad AAA player at all, but at best, he's a AAAA (Quad-A) player.
He could surprise and all that, but I wouldn't get your hopes up for this guy.
2 month season doesn't allow tinkering around like 6 month season. Hopefuls, Maybes and Futures won't cut it. Reds have to FIRE OUT with a great 8. This is a 2 month sprint, not a 6 month marathon. This will have a football season feel with 102 less games. 60 games means Reds need to come out of the gate strong.
No, the Reds OF crowded enough. There is no room for this 29 year old still trying to make The Bigs.
