The Cincinnati Reds seem to not have a plan for young players when they reach the Major Leagues. Jeff and Steve finish their conversation with Mo Egger as they point out the confusing nature with which the Reds have managed Nick Senzel, Tyler Stephenson, and other players as they've reached the Big Leagues. The Reds could be a fun team to watch, though, once they figure it out this season, but the problem will be how far out of first place and far below-.500 the Reds will be when that happens. Which brings up the question: is David Bell skating on thin ice? Why he probably isn't and why Barry Larkin shouldn't be the defect choice, if Bell were to be let go.
