The Reds have assigned Yonder Alonso to AA Carolina.

With Votto back now that Canada is gone that sounds about right. He wouldn't get ab's now
Does he have any lateral quickness? He's our left fielder of the future.

sad to see while guys like Ward get to compile/waste at bats

There goes the thought of Valaika winning the SS job out of camp.
I never said it was. I had seen some posters in ORG pulling for this possibility due to the lack of any legitimate SSs on the major league level. I just hope Gonzalez can turn the clock back to the first half of the 2007 season or Keppinger can get back to hitting .300
Agon getting out on the field and getting some guys back from the WBC meant he and a lot of the young guys were going to be sent out.
While it was impossible for Valaika to win the SS job, it was great to see what he can do with the bat - even if it was against some young pitching.
We need some sort of light at the end of the tunnel at SS - Hairston Jr., Keppinger, Janish, and Gonzalez are a combined 9 for 56 with 7 strikeouts and only 3 walks
I'm not cool enough to have a good signature
Alonso and the rest will still see AB's in the big league camp. This purely procedural. Happens every year. The in house non-roster invitees get sent down to the minor league camp when it starts. The minor league camp starts this week, so it is best for them to train with their potential teammates.
They will get just as many AB's with the major league team as if they were in the big league camp, the only difference is that they have to use the minor league clubhouse.
Yep, they all train at the same facility, so the AA and A camps are all in the same place. Again, the AA camp and A camp are separated by name only. The major league clubhouse and minor league clubhouse are literally next door to each other, and they all share the same cloverleaf practice field.
I think he had to go to a specific camp since he is on the 40 man roster, but that is just a guess.
hope that we see Frazier and Alonso again in september.
It could be worse. A year ago right now almost Bruce got sent down. That really broke my heart.
