It's so the trainers can keep an eye on him while he rehabs

It means he has made his way to base without an out or error 111 times in 366 plate appearances which comes out to an awful .303 on base %.....his 61 runs scored inside those numbers is very very good and his 61 runs hitting 2nd playing at home in GABP and totally 88 games is still above average.

Has there been any news on his rehab? I've heard he was taking bp and ground balls. Without setback I think his return is close.

That sounds pretty boring.

Re: Reds vs Pirates

I wish Ludwick had learned to play 1B at some point.

Miguel Cairo should not have to be a 1B option.

Re: Reds vs Pirates

Would it kill a Red to take a few pitches today? Burnett is just throwing everything under the shins and guys are getting themselves out.

Re: Reds vs Pirates

Hard to believe this team has the best record in MLB when you see those boxscore batting averages.
