    Yea, he's a hustle, grit guy that Reds fans like (guilty as charged), but I'm guessing he only projects as a backup MLB OF at this point.

    Probably projects to a ceiling of a LH hitting, poor man's version of Ryan Freel or Chris Stynes.

    Reds take 1 in MLB phase, lose none in that phase.
    Reds take 2 in MiLB phase, lose 2 in that phase.

    So the financial end of the minor league draft is a wash - $48K out, $48K in.

    Good for Reds on Friedl. If comes back and produces, he's ours....

    He also didn't log a full season of at bats in that span. Assuming there might be some health issues at play?
    How do we know he's not Mel Torme?

    I suspect Friedl wouldn't mind spending a few years in the majors like Freel and Stynes did.
