Alonso playing in Hawaii

[OnBaseMachine]

I went to milb.com and typed in Philippe Valiquette's name and it shows him playing for Waikiki BeachBoys, the same team as Yonder and Frazier. He's now confirmed. I typed in Eric Eymann and the team came up blank for now.

I found another little interesting piece on Frazier:

Frazier is listed as a utility infielder, but he is expected to focus on shortstop in his time with Waikiki. The New Jersey native made his way to Cincinnati via Rutgers University, and carries with him the notoriety of leading his home-state Toms River squad to the Little League World Series title in 1998. Frazier spent most of 2008 with the Reds' high-A club in Sarasota, Fla. and collected 20 doubles, three triples and 12 home runs while driving in 54 through 100 games.

I just read on the Reds website that Adam Rosales plans to play winter ball in Puerto Rico. Sounds like there are going to be a lot of Reds players/prospects worth following during the offseason.

On the Reds radio broadcast it was just mentioned that Alonso may also play winter ball in the DR after he plays in Hawaii.

....and 11 days in the Florida Instructional League before heading to Hawaii.

There hasn't been this volume of potential in the REDS' pipeline at any time I can remember in the last 40 years.
