I hereby request that we change Skip from "gritty" to "bitty" for the remainder of his Reds career (estimated 2022)

They could call up Waldrop and Skipworth, both of whom are already on the 40-man roster. They could also put Negrón on the 60-day DL and purchase the contract of Falu.
Again, I'm not suggesting that these are players who need to see any significant action. I'm just saying that having only four available players on the bench in September is embarrassing.

Hoover could start a fire in 10 feet of water.

You'd think it would be LaMarre or Boesch instead of Skip there if you're wanting a defensive replacement. But I agree, there should be another bench player....or 2.
