Larkin always had horrible Aprils. Encarnacion appears to be the same way. He's OPS over .900 over the last 30 days.

Enjoy watching it. The grass is not greener on the other side.

Buy a new REDS' cap and enjoy these games. Tomorrow's game is on WGN.

Why not take his entire year into count? Why pick and choose month to month to prove a point? If you have to do that then it shows how inconsistant he really is.

I don't think people realize that Edwin is still young (25 or 26). He still has great potential, and we have already seen his improvements with the glove. I think once he can recharge at the all-star break, and be at 100% strength, we will see a more dynamic offensive 3rd baseman

You could get more in return for EE in a trade than you could for Dunn. So, if you're looking at it that way, then you're selling Edwin while he's still on the upswing of his career.
