Ever since he was claimed off waivers from the Milwaukee Brewers in 2017, Scooter Gennett has delivered big time playing second base for the Cincinnati Reds. His tendency towards clutch hits and a good batting average have made him a favorite. Gennett made baseball fun to watch during a time when there was very little to be excited about in Reds Country. That is just part of why letting him go at this point would be a mistake.
Gennett is in his final year of arbitration. That fact, combined with the impending arrival of number-one prospect Nick Senzel, has a portion of the Cincinnati Reds fan base pushing for Gennett to be traded.
