I like this pickup by the Reds. I wonder if Freel is about to be moved now? I personally would rather have Wilson on the bench more than I would want Freel. Wilson has more power and would be good off the bench against lefties.
I think the likely hood of a Hatteberg or Votto move is much more possible.
The same Craig Wilson that looks like a Viking and used to play for the Pirates? Niiiice, he used to crank on us (but who didn't).
SECOND PLACE DOESN'T CONCERN ME
He was really strong against lefties. If he gets his swing back, he would be a perfect platoon partner for Votto.
I don't think this is a sign that the Reds are about to trade Votto. He is too iffy to be counted on as a replacement.
I don't know that I like the deal from the outset, but I defenitly like the indications of what may come from a trade standpoint.
-LTlabnerIf you can't build a winning team with that core a fire-sale isn't the solution. Selling the franchise, moving them to Nashville and converting GABP into a used car lot is.
Its just a minor league deal but also could just be a minor league deal to save a spot on the 40 man
