Looks like Reds are sending pitching prospect Kenya Huggins.

Reds traded their 22nd rank prospect.

I'm guessing Connor Joe is gone with Andujar coming , Hinds was sent down and when Hayes was acquired and when Friedl comes back, probably Benson with Fraley getting squeezed for plate appearances.

Hasn't been a full time player in like...forever. Great year he had in 2018 though when he was 22.

Best thing about getting this guy of you ask me.

I guess . . . Fraley did lead the team in batting average last year.

Good BA, but doesn't walk, doesn't hit for power, doesn't run, and is a mediocre defender.

MEH.

I should have specified.  I'd be most pleased with Joe never wearing a Reds uniform again.

It's like we discussed in a past thread: Reds GM should be adding thumpers and embrace GABP with a power hitting lineup. Hayes and Andujar...

Maybe, but he doesn’t bat against left handed pitchers.

I wasn't too thrilled with Hayes at first but i think he's helped out defensively, big time. If he doesn't make the plays he has, who knows how many of those wins ended up losses.
