Bobby Nightengale of the Cincinnati Enquirer spoke with Cincinnati Reds president of baseball operations Dick Williams about some of the team’s offseason plans. Williams, who’s usually very forthcoming with information, suggested it’s not a forgone conclusion that Aristides Aquino will be the Reds starting right fielder when the 2020 season begins.
That news may come as a shock to some fans, but it’s honestly very refreshing. In the past, the Cincinnati Reds have been very quick to anoint certain players who’ve had a sudden burst of production. Case in point, look at what happened to Derek Dietrich this season.
