CF B.Hamilton
LF D.Phipps or J.Fellhauer
SP1 T.Cingrani
SP2 D.Corcino
SP3 T.Redmond
AA
C T.Barnhart
1B D.Lutz?
2B D.Lohman
SS M.Gilmartin?
3B D.Vidal
LF J.Duran (or Lutz if they really think he can play OF)
CF T.Bowe
RF S.Selsky or B.Smith
SP1 K.Lotzkar
SP2 C.Rogers
SP3 T.Crabbe
A+
C ???
1B S.Buckley
2B R.Wright
SS J.Perez
3B S.Mejias-Brean
LF J.Silva
CF Y.Rodriguez
RF K.Waldrop
SP1 R.Stephenson

RF J.Gelalich
SP1 D.Langfield
SP2 D.Cisco

Nothing on this? So I guess it's settled...
Re: Projecting 2013 Minor League Lineups
Gotta think they'll sign a catcher and he'll be Louisville's starter. One thing I have noticed is that they have a starting pitcher hole in Louisville after Cingrani and Corcino.

They already signed a catcher, Nevin Ashley, but hopefully they will sign Corky for another year as well...
I think the Bats should have a solid rotation
Cingrani
Corcino
Redmond
Villarreal
Free Agent

Where does Ryan Dennick slot in at?

Bullpen somewhere
Re: Projecting 2013 Minor League Lineups
Any chance they try Lotzkar at AAA? And I'd love an opportunity to see Stephenson pitch (which means he would have to start in Dayton)...
Re: Projecting 2013 Minor League Lineups
No chance that Garrett is in Dayton to start the year. He won't even be done with basketball until at least the middle of March. I don't know exactly how that works with him and school and his classes after that.
Wouldn't surprise me to see Stephenson back in Dayton to begin the year.
Re: Projecting 2013 Minor League Lineups
Assuming no deals, the Reds have some interesting guys in Louisville. Soto, Gregorius, and Rodriguez are young and likely to improve a great deal on pedestrian numbers from last season. All could blossom into Top 100 prospects by the end of the season. Phipps, Perez, Puckett, Redmond, and Villareal are all solid AAA depth. Hamilton, Corcino, and Cingrani will provide the mega-watt superstar prospect glitter.
The only weakness of the team looks to be relief pitching-- and Crabbe and perhaps Ravin could fix that.

Redmond and Leake will probably be there I think.

Chapman might be there (probably not though).

Redmond, yes.
Leake, absolutely no chance. He'll get dealt or become a long reliever if he's not a part of the rotation.

Stephenson didn't have that much time in Dayton last year. I could see him starting there as well. Any chance he does half season at Dayton then goes to AA and skips Bakersfield if he dominates A?
Re: Projecting 2013 Minor League Lineups
One interesting thing when you take a look at the whole organization is that there is a MASSIVE dropoff after the top 5 prospects (Hamilton, Stephenson, Cingrani, Corcino, and Gregorius). It's almost like they are the only five that really matter in the entire system.
It is hard for me to decide who would be #6. Winker maybe? Travieso possibly? Lotzkar if he can ever stay healthy? I guess that's what we'll find out this season- who is the next generation of Reds Top Prospects (other than Stephenson) after 2013, when the other four will graduate to the bigs.

Not trying to be a hater, but do we really need 7 stickies in this forum right now?
