Also he does play against lefties. His numbers are much better against RHP but I don't see him sitting against all lefties.

Career he has a .307 AVG with OPS of .914 against RHP and a .249 AVG with OPS of .695 against LHP. Obviously much stronger against RHP and his numbers last year were really bad against lefties much worse than in the past.
Earl Weaver would know what to do.

I'd assume that he IS. Didi himself tweeted that he was. I'd assume they'd tell the players BEFORE the media.

Bless you, Indians.

Looking forward to getting a peek at Choo.

Reds got cash, too? How much? It would be interesting if their one-year Choo rental is also at a serious discount...

Can I just say that this move has "Jocketty" written all over it? Talk about a big game hunter. Still remember that from a Cards forum post written about him at the time the Reds got him. And boy oh boy, is it ever true!

Re: Shin-soo Choo?
This is exciting stuff. It's going to be a lot of fun watching Choo and Bruce throw the ball in the OF.

Can't believe this deal is actually going to happen.

While choos bat might be good enough, I think it might only happen when ludwick sits. Your normal lineup is going to be
Choo
Phillips
Votto
Ludwick
Bruce
Frazier
Hanigan/mesaraco
Cozart

With our pitching that is a championship lineup

Well, maybe he WAS as far as the Reds were concerned. Remember that the Reds-Indians part of the deal seems to have been completed first. Maybe the Indians-DBacks part took more time?
