    This was in the clubhouse of GABP too. You would think they would have the most there than anywhere else? Could be hearing a lot crickets on the road.

    Theyre coming to Charleston and going to be at the Civic Center. If any of the owners were coming I'd go just to be the one wise guy to tell tehm to open the books tired of BS until they kill my mic.

    Reds Caravan in Hamilton: Up close and personal experience for more than 500 who attended

    “I don’t think we realized how much we missed it until we got out today,” Bell addressed to over 500 in attendance. “It’s great going to visit places we don’t typically visit and meet people who are Reds fans — and try to get more people to be Reds fans.”

    David Bell: Reds working toward spring training

    “We had the labor disagreement last year, and we got off to a late start with spring training,” Bell said. “So we’re looking forward to a full spring training. … The last month we’ve been talking every day. Putting together strategies for spring training.”

    With the new rules and changes going into play during the 2023 season, Bell said understanding those modifications will be beneficial now — and in the early stages of spring training.

    “We’re creating ways to deal with those and get off to a good start,” he said. “First, we explain all of the rules and explain how we’re going to turn all of those rules into an advantage.”

    The pitch time and defensive shift limits were addressed by Bell. Bigger bases will also be added to the list of changes for the upcoming 2023 season.

    “A lot of the minor leaguers on our staff have experienced some of those changes already,” Bell said. “Base running is going to be affected a lot. There’s going to be a lot more of an opportunity to steal bases.

    “From a pitching standpoint, it will be about controlling the running game, especially with pitchers who tend to work a little slower,” Bell added. “There’s a lot of adjusting that is going to have to happen.”

    Ahh yes... classic "fingers in ears, eyes shut" rhetoric from the top on down. "If I keep saying that thing that is happening, is not actually happening... Then maybe enough people will believe that thing is not happening, and we can all keep our phony baloney jobs!"

    Attended Reds Caravan in Charleston WV this evening. The Q & A was mostly driven by children asking innocent questions, so not really many hard questions were asked. The few semi-hard questions that were asked were given standard GM speak answers. While getting Nick Krall's autograph though, I did commend him on doing so much with so little! ��

    I wish you hammered him about the 10.8 Billion in revenue, How they can say they have no money, then prove where their cut (360 million per team) went??

    Bell makes it sound as if the other teams didn't go thru the same labor disagreement and delay as the Reds did. I guess the difference was the other teams didnt trade away their entire team the minute the dispute ended.

    Yes but will that one guy from rookie league A ball be there?

    Otherwise, no point in going.

    At 18, Collier gets taste of pro life headlining Reds Caravan
    It was Friday night at a mall, Polaris Fashion Place, and 18-year-old Cam Collier wasn't there to hang out with friends or go shopping like many teenagers might with a winter weekend just getting started.

    Instead, Collier was among the headliners on the northern leg of Reds Caravan.

    "We were joking earlier that he should be a senior in high school right now," Reds general manager Nick Krall said.

    Collier was the 18th overall selection in the 2022 Draft after the third baseman graduated early from high school in Georgia. He attended Chipola Junior College in Florida to be reclassified for Draft eligibility. When he signed in July, he received a $5 million bonus, well above the $3.659 million slot value for the 18th pick.

    Ranked this week as the No. 69 overall prospect by MLB Pipeline, Collier is still in the early stages of his pro career. The Reds featured more talent from their player development system on this year's caravan legs, and Collier is the youngest on the road. He's been getting a smaller taste of the exposure he would get in the big leagues.

    Hundreds of fans turned out in Columbus to meet the Reds’ contingent that included Collier, Krall, broadcasting icon Marty Brennaman, Reds Hall of Famer Chris Sabo, Major League infielder Alejo Lopez, Minor League infielder Tyler Callihan, broadcaster Jim Day and mascot Gapper. Following a Q&A session emceed by Day, fans lined up for autographs.

    On the field last season, the lefty-hitting Collier played nine games for the organization in the Arizona Complex League. He batted .370 with a 1.144 OPS, two home runs and four RBIs. After the season, he participated in instructional league.

    “It was really good," Krall said. "Let’s just take this one day at a time with him and let him continue to develop, but he’s got a lot of talent and a lot of tools. It’s just continuing to make him into a quality Major League player.”

    The son of former Major League player Lou Collier, Cam Collier felt prepared for his first taste of pro ball, but he still had to adjust to a higher level of play than previously experienced.

    “It’s a different thing," Collier said. "It’s what my Dad told me: It’s longer nine-inning games, better competition and playing against grown men. It’s just a faster pace of game.”
