I've always wondered why the Reds didn't re-organize their farm system to where Louisville was the Low-A team and Dayton was the AAA club. Better facilities, better fan base...I'd think you'd want to please the better fan base with better players closer to the majors. That should, in turn, make it an easier transition for the fans to root even harder for the parent club.

If it's not feasible, at least make Dayton/Louisville the AA club. The way it currently is...just strikes me as odd.
