From Sheldon, Choo will wear 17 (Negron did have it), Donald 16, and Hannahan 9. All these are the numbers they had while most recently with CLE.

Is it just me or is anyone else surprised the Reds haven't promoted the Choo signing a little more...at least done some sort of press blitz to help us get to know him for the year he will be here?
It wasn't a signing.
No, I wondered the same thing. I feel like half the fan base is gonna be wondering why Stubbs isn't playing centerfield on opening day.Quote:

Haha. Negron is lucky that he has a uniform at Louisville.
That's my guess. I'm sure they'll hold a big presser at the start of spring training to "introduce" him. But he probably goes back to South Korea from November-January.Quote:

And Billy Hamilton will wear #6 in Spring Training.
ChOO should've gone with #00.

Izturis has worn #3 at a number of other stops (Dodgers, Cubs, Pirates, Cardinals, Orioles, and Brewers). Probably a professional courtesy.Quote:
