    Guess I'm just not sold on Kyle Tucker as the backup SS. Maybe he's better than I realize.

    You'd think they'd find a spot for Kyle Tucker at his regular position in the outfield. But I wasn't aware we traded with the Astros.

    Tucker Barnhart is the backup shortstop??

    "He's a unique athlete in that he can play the two most important positions, demanding from an athletic standpoint and skill standpoint," manager David Bell said. "Not many people fall into that category. We knew that, but I don't think I gave it enough thought to truly see how good he was at that position. He made great points, and it opened my eyes. He's showed it in this camp. He can really play there. He knew that, and maybe other people knew that."
    Davidson making the team as DH against lefties could be an accommodation to Castellanos.

    Nick said, I recall, that he came to the NL to play the field every day. He doesn’t want to DH.

    So he stays in RF against lefties, Davidson DHs, assuming they go with that roster.

    Isn't ervin the DH against lefties?
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    Seems that Ervin is a corner OF/DH against lefties. Shogo might sit against lefties if both Davidson and Ervin play.

    Question I have is if Reds wanted another RH power bat, why did they drop Aquino? Why Davidson over Aquino?
