I'm of the opinion that EdE will not be back up with the Reds. My belief is they are going to pump up some stats at AAA and then trade him. What do you think?

It's strictly a guess, but I think he'll be back up in June. I doubt the Reds are going to trade him, because if nothing else this EE demotion has proven to the Reds FO they have no long term solution at 3rd other than EE.

For the Record, I want him back sooner rather than later.

Hopefully soon. His defense, or lack thereof, will be easier to swallow if he's not slumping so badly at the plate, and since he's seeming to be getting back into a groove while feasting on AAA pitching, I think he should be back within the next 2 weeks.

Plus I have a hard time believing that JN and WK are enamored enough by Freel's play at third. He hasn't been bad, but he's obviously not the solution there. But maybe it's just blind hope that they'll see what they have in a player like EE.

I voted for June but honestly feel that he will be back before then.

I vote June. If he does well in AAA, why get rid of him?

I'm sure he'll be up by June. They're crazy if he's not up by then.

I voted June (like most everyone else) but it is really that I WANT him to be back. I have no idea about the management and what they're thinking. I wouldn't have sent him down in the first place.

In all of our defenses, there was no "tomorrow" option ;)
