Cincinnati Reds Spring Training Preview – Is there any move that they should have made that they didn’t?
Is there any move that the Cincinnati Reds should have made that they didn’t?
The Cincinnati Reds should have brought back Ross Ohlendorf in a heartbeat. He is a veteran of the MLB who changed himself from a starter to a reliever and could have been a great mentor for the prospects. He never got a fair shot last season and the fans should be ashamed.
At the end of the season Ohlendorf’s ERA+ was 92 or the MLB ERA was 92 percent of his final ERA. That means that Ohlendorf was just below average over the length of the season. He also faced more batters in relief than at any previous time in his career.
