I count 10 "other" votes but only 7 people mentioning Dorn, just a heads up. I am gonna vote Dorn so that will make 11 "other" votes.

I hate to be troublesome, but since Dorn is very much a principal here (and even though I voted for Silva), maybe this poll ought to be restarted with his name available.

Dorn and he is running up my cyber gasoline bill running to the polls to vote for him.

Agreed, if it's not too much trouble.

Silva... Not gonna waste a vote on Dorn seeing as how it's doubtful he's with the Reds to start the season.

what about a .793 OPS in AAA for a corner OF is interesting? Not to mention his Dunn like OF defense. I'll take the cathedral ceiling of a Silva any day over the lean-to height of Dorn's promise at this point.

Dorn's career .930 OPS against RHP and his line from June-End of the Season at AAA that was .324/.393/.551 over 250 plate appearances sound about right. Dorn got off to a slow start in April/May but he obliterated the baseball for the rest of the season to a tune slightly better than his minor league career before that point.

Scrap Irony · 12-02-2009, 11:46 PM

He can also play LF. He got the reputation, but his numbers are average or better across the board. He's slow, I'll give you that. But his arm is sound, his routes are solid, and he makes the plays he's suposed to. Not only that, but he never throws he ball to the wrong base and he hits his cut-off men more often than most OFs I've seen.

I'm guessing most people who think he looks bad out there are comparing him to Heisey and Stubbs, two really, really good defensive players. Anyone would suffer by comparison.

dorn

Oops....didn't read ahead. I have dorn one spot above sulbaran but voted for the latter. Please change my vote to dorn.

Dorn it! How about some love for Donnie Joseph? He will be pitching in GABP this season. That should count for something.

haha...maybe they should platoon and have a contest...floor: stays in AAA for 8 more years and retires...ceiling: platoon LF (only) for a few years (poor defense, marginal walk rate), maybe long enough to get his pension...that's a prospect? I think Silva and almost everyone else on this list have a chance to be quite a bit better than that. IMHO

Viola + Del Rosario + Ondrusek (3 guys who WILL pitch out of the BP for the Reds, and perhaps well), 3 votes = Donnie Joseph, 3 votes (who might pitch out of the pen for the Reds)???

These rankings skew way too far toward the newly drafted.
