First - A guy is better than another guy because he has the "potential" to do something, even tho his actual stats (aside from OBP) in 2013 were worse in nearly every category? That's a pretty bold statement.
Second - Using RBIs as a legitimate statistic, let alone your ONLY statistic to compare two players is well, probably the most short-sighted thing one could do - save maybe comparing their Fielding Percentages. Bravo my man, bravo.
And your last statement makes me think you're most definitely trolling, that or you've got a really great pair of Red-colored glasses.
Okay - based on your last statement, you got me, hook, line, and sinker.

I HAVE to come here more often. I love this Reality poster! When I die and get sent to Hades instead of Heaven, I hope dude is there with me...."T, I have the stats to PROVE Hades is a better place for us than Heaven. The potential is there!"

I'm always grateful when somebody else has drunk more of the kook-aid than I have.
"Even a bad day at the ballpark beats the snot out of most other good days. I'll take my scorecard and pencil and beer and hot dog and rage at the dips and cheer at the highs, but I'm not ever going to stop loving this game and this team and nobody will ever take that away from me."

We're finally feeling the effects of Votto's salary in my opinion. I don't think Frazier will be the permanent answer at 3rd although like Cozart, he's excellent defensively. As long as the pitching is there, we've got a chance and so does any team for that matter.
Yeah it would take one or two key injuries for this team to really fall flat. Cueto would have me the most worried since he has all but proven he is like fine china-- very fragile. I would love to think that we could just plug someone in and not miss a beat, but I just dont see that happening. Ooo well, will always love my Reds.
Most teams are in trouble if a few of their SP's go down to injury's for any significant period of time. The Reds can probably fade 1 SP injury for a bit-- like 1 month-- but if a Cueto drops and misses 10 starts and his replacement is a 5.00 ERA guy-- not good.
Bullpen will be ok, even without Marshall and Broxton for an extended period.
Our "window" is wide open. We just need to stay healthy. When healthy we are as good as anyone.
We're loaded. Our "window" is wide open. Anyone who disagrees just likes to worry.
