Fans like to predict who will stay and who will go. The Cincinnati Reds, and every other team throughout Major League Baseball, will have until December 2nd to tender offers to several players on their rosters who meet certain criteria. The Reds have a few candidates who could be on that list this offseason, but we’ll just focus on the five most likely players to be non-tendered.
Last offseason, we saw the Reds front office say goodbye to centerfielder Billy Hamilton. After five-plus seasons in the Queen City, Dick Williams and Nick Krall decided that it was time for the franchise to head in a different direction.
