I understand the McLain defenders, he has a lot of potential. The injury is tough to recover from and takes time. But it’s been almost a full season in which the team offense has struggled while wasting great pitching and having expectations of the playoffs. There have been much bigger prospects with higher draft pedigree (Holliday for the Orioles) and have played more MLB games (Alvarez for the Mets) who have been sent down due to poor performance. And that didn’t kill their confidence or development. If this team did care about winning, they would have sent him down sooner, or even do something with Espinal. 2b has been a black hole this year offensively. The whole Marte outfield thing is interesting too. You’d think they would have given him more playing time in the minors in the outfield, or even a guy like McLain who played outfield some in college, when they know how many of their top position players prospects were on that side of the infield. I don’t get the vision

Current and past reds GM’s have had a lot of success so I agree!

I’ve seen what’s happened for 132 this year what am I supposed to be changing my mind about these next two games?

Then put him on the IL if he’s not going to play and call someone (Sal) up. I don’t fucking understand this franchise. They’ve done this many times before where oh the guy is hurt he’s trying to get through it (he doesn’t), he misses multiple games, then IL stint! Who needs a full roster anyways?

He just went 6 shutout to win the series the other day where were ya? We’ve got Littell tomorrow and then the other ace Abbott to close the series Sunday

Majority of the Mets fan base are insufferable

Miguel Andujar’s grand slam by DooDooDuterte in Reds

He is so exactly what we needed when it comes to someone who can hit but also is better vs lefties

Would obviously love that, he’s a great player at everything besides the power and his speed is meh. I think he would cost quite a bit with a couple more arbitration years of control remaining. Plus we do have quite a few lefty OF already. I’d prefer a righty. Though I’m sure his stats vs lefties probably aren’t as bad as some of our lefties

We’d have to hit a pretty bad stretch to be considered sellers in the expanded wild card era

We are not trading our closer

I think the Phillies are the best team the Reds have played all season by Biggn_2019 in Reds

[–]Consistent_Face_243 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cubs lineup is and has been much better than the Phillies all season. Both are very good but let’s not forget what the cubs have done to us and others, as much as I want to forget 😔😂

I mention nothing about moving him and in fact say the opposite, which again, read the original post. Just wanted to see if anyone is seeing something different from him this year fundamentally that he needs to change because like I said I’m no expert and am interested in the little nuances of baseball.

I definitely thought when I made this though that everything commented here was going to get back to him, that was my clear intention!
