I agree. I said he's best suited for LF, but on this team the CF platoon of Friedl and Fairchild is the best course of action. Unless they Make Fairchild the full time guy in RF, since it's a gaping hole right now.
I want the Reds to focus most of the spending on pitching, but they need a RF. I'd like to see them try to bring Tyler Naquin back. Solid defender in a corner, has a big arm for RF, League averagish bat (which is a huge improvement to internal options), and should be reasonably priced. Lefty bats get a GABP boost. 2 years $15 Million is a better deal than he's likely to get IMO and its something the Reds can afford even in their own unreasonable budget. He'll be 32 in April.
