Arise and walk, come through. A world beyond that door is calling out for you. Arise and walk, come through. It's calling out for you.
I think he's better against RHP than Heisey, isn't he?Originally Posted by dougdirt
No, he isn't. .233/.316/.355 for his career. Heisey is at .275/.331/.460
Bobby Abreu anyone?
Johnny Damon?
Grady Sizemore?
I have read most of this thread and I didn't see anything posted about how the MRI results came out. Has anything come out? Estimated time table for his return?
I trust Ludwick's arm in its current state more than I trust Damon's.Bobby Abreu anyone?
Johnny Damon?
Grady Sizemore?

According to MLBTR updated list, here are the unsigned free agent outfielders:
Abreu
Damon
Figgins
Bill Hall
Scott Podsednik
Juan Rivera
Ryan Sweeney
Grady Sizemore

He's not a better option than Heisey. Or really anyone.
For career numbers, yes, but for the most recent season, the numbers are not so skewed:
2012 vs RHP
Heisey: .262/.314/.365
Hannahan: .270/.331/.381
I think the big argument against Hannahan filling in much is that it would require a move of Frazier to LF at a time when he needs positional stability so he can focus on and develop his hitting.
Sizemore isn't healthy and probably won't be until mid-season. I think Damon and Abreau are both cooked, and I don't know that Hall or Rivera offer much more than what Heisey already brings.
I might bring Posednik in for a look, though.
Cincinnati Reds: Farm System Champions 2022
As we all know, Heisey's career numbers are skewed by his excellence as a backup. He gets exposed when he plays every day. Meanwhile, Hannahan is a terrific fielder at 3B and bats left-handed. His career batting numbers are somewhat dragged down by spending his career in pitchers parks, while Heisey has been in Cincinnati. I'd like to see Hannahan get a good chunk of the playing time at the very least when a groundball pitcher like Cueto is starting...
As far as I know, there's been no update.
[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

Surely the MRI would have been conducted by this point in the day.
Not sure if no news yet is a good omen or bad.

@Reds: Ludwick to have surgery tomorrow to repair torn cartilage in his right shoulder. Reds to make corresponding roster before tomorrow's game.
This can't be good.
Just saw that. Any doctors in the house? What does that mean as far as timetable for return?
