    Yes!

    Big shoes to fill. And a big void to fill at the position since Davey handed the reigns to Barry, and Barry retired.

    I think it’s a good move to call him up in Colorado. No pressure of the home crowd. Very hitter friendly park. I’m excited to see how he does.

    With McClain in the fold now, I wonder if the Brewers sour on Winkler.

    He’s probably waiting to hear Inglesias’s and Hanniggan’s options. Ludwig too.

    Re: Reds calling up Matt McLain

    Guessing India stays at second for now; McLain to short for now; Friedl to IL, Fairchild starts in CF, Senzel stays at third, Barrero to a utility role.

    But there are other alternatives, presumably we’ll know tomorrow.

    Re: Reds calling up Matt McLain

    McLain wore #78 in spring training. He was wearing #15 at Louisville. That’s Senzel’s number so I doubt he’s getting that.

    Any predictions on his number with the Reds?

    Looking at the roster to see what's available and what isn't (man, there are a lot of guys here I've never heard of!), I would guess #9. (Backup guess is #16.)
    Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.

    Re: Reds calling up Matt McLain

    This will honestly get me purposely watching more Reds games as opposed to remembering an hour into so into them that it is on, so that’s good.

    Tyler Stevenson and Hunter Green are probably looking forward to getting help on the offensive side of things.

    Considering that he is a future Hall Of Famer, he should get any number that he wants.
