Cincinnati Reds: Alex Blandino will suffice as a reserve infielder

Several fans, myself included have kind of scoffed at the idea of Alex Blandino making the Cincinnati Reds 26-man roster out of spring training. But are we being too critical of the 27-year-old infielder? Blandino’s numbers suggest he’s better than fans may realize.

Reds fans have been a bit overly critical this offseason. Despite the offseason additions of Shogo Akiyama, Nick Castellanos, Mike Moustakas and Wade Miley, some folks throughout Reds Country still want more. Six straight years of losing is enough to make any Reds fan come across as a bit ornery.
