All 30 MLB teams will have until 11:59 PM ET Wednesday to decide whether or not to tender contracts to their arbitration eligible players, and that means that the Cincinnati Reds will have another day or so to make a pair of contract decisions. The biggest decision they'll face is likely the easiest, though, since it's a near no-brainer that they'll opt to keep Zack Cozart around despite the devastating knee injury that cut short what had been a breakout season for him in 2015. Yes, Eugenio Suarez showed competence as a potential replacement for Cozart, and that has led many to call for him to get the starting SS nod in 2016, but while that may render Cozart the lesser of the two players, it doesn't mean he suddenly becomes worthless.
