- 14 hours ago Red Reposter - Madison Bumgarner on Reds radar
Red Reporter Photo by Daniel Shirey/ Thursday links! It’s not always a guarantee that a high-profile swing and miss on the transaction market will immediately prompt seeking the next best thing. Earlier this winter, the Cincinnati Reds chased catcher Yasmani Grandal in free agency before he ultimately signed with the Chicago White Sox for some $73 million guaranteed, but the Reds didn’t - or haven’t yet, at least - simply start calling every other catcher on the market to make sure they found someone new. Yesterday, we watched as pitcher Zack Wheeler came to an agreement with the Philadelphia...

Dec 4, 2019 - Dec 4, 2019 Updating the Top 100: Tucker Barnhart
Red Reporter Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports In 2017, Tucker Barnhart had a career year. His offensive numbers had steadily increased each year of his short career, to the point where you could foresee a handful more years of a competent bat with solid doubles power and a discerning eye. His defensive numbers popped in a way that probably does injustice to the word “popped”, throwing out an astounding 44% of would-be base stealers and otherwise being excellent with the glove (perhaps with the exception of framing pitches…).
