Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
http://marksheldon.mlblogs.com/2013/...iform-numbers/
From Sheldon, Choo will wear 17 (Negron did have it), Donald 16, and Hannahan 9. All these are the numbers they had while most recently with CLE. 320

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
Is it just me or is anyone else surprised the Reds haven't promoted the Choo signing a little more...at least done some sort of press blitz to help us get to know him for the year he will be here?

It wasn't a signing.

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
No, I wondered the same thing. I feel like half the fan base is gonna be wondering why Stubbs isn't playing centerfield on opening day.

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
Does Choo live in South Korea during the off season? Only reason I can think of for no big press conferences or anything.

"Negron did have it."
Haha. Negron is lucky that he has a uniform at Louisville. |

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
That's my guess. I'm sure they'll hold a big presser at the start of spring training to "introduce" him. But he probably goes back to South Korea from November-January.

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
I don't think you would be too far off with that estimation. I kinda hope for rain during the opening series because I really want to hear the bananna phone. I'm almost certain someone will call in and say "Where's Stubbs?"

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
From John Fay:
Relief pitcher Sean Marshall switched from No. 51 to No. 45 – his old number with the Cubs. Closer Jonathan Broxton switched from No. 50 to No. 51. Veteran infielder Cesar Izturis will wear No. 3. http://cincinnati.com/blogs/sports/2...yssey=obinsite And Billy Hamilton will wear #6 in Spring Training.

Should Izturis getting #3 indicate that he has a solid chance of making this team? Not many NRI guys get that low of a # without having a solid chance to make the team. |

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
Izturis has worn #3 at a number of other stops (Dodgers, Cubs, Pirates, Cardinals, Orioles, and Brewers). Probably a professional courtesy.

Re: Uniform numbers for Choo, Hannahan, Donald
Hamilton with a low number as well. Probably just the Reds thinktank wanting to stir us up with rumors here at RedsZone.
