Cincinnati Reds: Aristides Aquino’s future hinges on minor-league options
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Aristides Aquino (44) flies out in the second inning.
Aristides Aquino had an impressive debut with the Cincinnati Reds in August of 2019. The Punisher blasted home runs, set records left and right, and looked to be on track to be a fixture in the Reds lineup for years to come.
However, all good things must come to an end, and since that performance that won him Player of the Month honors in August of 2019, Aquino has fallen out of favor with the Reds coaching staff and fanbase. The Punisher has not had a good showing this spring, but still may get the nod over more deserving players.
Aristides Aquino’s future with the Reds is not yet clear.
