The offseason is heating up, and with recent signings like Jason Heyward to the Padres and Harrison Bader to the Twins, the landscape of Major League Baseball is shifting. But what does this mean for the teams involved and the players' futures?
Let's dive into the Cincinnati Reds' situation, where the arrival of Gavin Lux has created a fascinating infield puzzle. With Matt McLain's promising start cut short by injury, how do you see the Reds managing their infield depth? Will McLain find a way to carve out a role, or is he destined for the outfield?
And speaking of the outfield, with Jake Fraley, Austin Hays, and TJ Friedl seemingly locked in, could we see a scenario where infielders like McLain or Lux are forced to adapt to new positions? How do you feel about players transitioning between infield and outfield roles?
On the pitching side, Graham Ashcraft's potential move to the bullpen raises questions about his future. Could he thrive in a high-leverage role, or is he better suited for starting? What are your thoughts on the effectiveness of pitchers who switch roles mid-career?
As we look ahead to Spring Training, what bold predictions do you have for the Reds' roster decisions? Will they surprise us with unexpected cuts or trades?
