I don't think you have your finger on the pulse of Reds fans. The majority of us are fed up with the way things are going and want this team to improve. If you look at many of the posts on this draft alone their were some strong opinions on who the Reds should take with the 15th pick. Taking a High School catcher is a risk a big one at that, but I feel in my opinion he is worth the risk. Yes it has been argued that he may be a "jack of all trades" but catchers who are special have to do everything well and this kid does everthing well. Hopefully this didn't come off as a rant or laced with snark, I really should be used to your mentality by now.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.

It's interesting that 3 of our first 4 picks are all Starting right now (Frazier, Mes and Cozart, with Lotzkar being the one who's not). That's a pretty successful draft. Their 6th pick, Mario Soto, got close.
