Good to see. He's really been hitting the cover off the ball lately. Well deserved, IMO, and opens up a space at Dayton for Cozart to play SS everyday.

I love watching Heisey play. He's max effort every game it seems like. He might not be gifted with the best all around tools, but he shows no deficiencies in any of the tools, either. He's one of those bust your butt types. If he continues to succeed and advance I think Reds fans will love him.
So, congratulations on your promotion, Mr. Valaika!

Valaika hasn't been that impressive since about mid-May. Turner argueably has been a better player and deserved the promotion more. More walks.
Post All-Star break, in 12 games Heisey is 20-45 for a .444 BA. 8R, 4 2B, 2HR, 10RBI, 5BB, 6K, 2SB, .510 OBP, .667 SLG, 1.176 OPS.
Nice to see him playing well.

Heisey was on fire to start the year, then hit a pretty bad lull. I agree, it's nice to see him rebounding. He has a Freel-esque feel to his game, IMHO.
Turner should be promoted too -- he was drafted as a college senior (like Dorn), so, beyond the fact his performance warrants a move up, age-wise he's behind where he should be. Sarasota 2nd baseman Michael DeJesus is not a prospect -- though he is mighty scrappy and all - so move him out and let Turner continue his development.
Heisey certainly looks to be a better offensive prospect than Stubbs.
Is his D comparable?
That is scary.Heisey certainly looks to be a better offensive prospect than Stubbs.
Heisey is an excellent defensive player, I think Phipps is pretty decent in the field as well.
