Looking ahead to Opening Day, I tried to lay out where I think the 35 most relevant minor leaguers (IMO) will end up. A couple of notes- Frazier and Janish could make the Reds OD roster, which would bump Didi and Puckett up to Louisville, a move that should happen anyway by Memorial Day. Obviously there are many other players in the system that I could have included, but so far as I can see, here are the players with the best chance of being relevant to the Reds in the future:
I think that there are some other arms coming back from injury to watch, including Jacob Johnson and Drew Cisco, both of whom could begin in the Dayton rotation. Also, I didn't include relief pitchers, but obviously there are a few guys from the 40 man who will start in Louisville (could include Fisher, Brackman, Judy, etc.) and Donnie Joseph will likely start in AA.Code:AAA AA A+ A C Navarro Fleury Barnhart 1B Soto Lutz 2B H.Rod Greene Lohman Wright SS Janish Didi Hamilton Valor 3B E.Camp Vidal Buckley Arias LF Frazier Puckett Duran CF Perez LaMarre Waldrop RF Phipps Y.Rod SP1 Chapman Sulbaran Corcino Cingrani SP2 Ravin Lotzkar Stephenson Top Three Rookie Leaguers to Watch 3B Gabriel Rosa LHP Amir Garrett LHP Ismael Guillon
