Cozart just 'looks' like a baseball player
Cueto with 20 pitches through 2.
Frazier owns the first Reds' base hit of 2013!
Cozie pops out to right.

Whipping Boy? Early favorites are, in order: Leake, Ludwick, Parra, Bailey, Mesoraco, Broxton and Cozart.
Dark horse candidates: BP, Frazier, Choo, Arroyo & Bruce
Candidates that would REALLY have to stink it up to become a whipping boy on Redszone: Latos, Cueto, Hoover, Marshall, Chapman, and Hanigan
Player who will NOT be the whipping boy no matter what happens: Votto
Whipping Man? Baker... no matter what the results are.
Weaver's slider is looking like Nuke Laloosh...I think he's gonna hit the mascot!

I'm guessing the board has already picked Leake.
If Mez gets off to a hot start, people will probably be clamoring to get Hannigan benched.
Ludwick is also a good candidate if he doesn't start hot (was the whipping boy at the beginning of last year).
Bruce and Cozart would really have to stink bad.. the board generally loves those guys. Not saying it's not deserved, just an observation.
[Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob
