For this week’s question, we took a look at which player should be the #1 target for a contract extension. We asked our panel of experts.
Question: Which player, if any, should the Reds make a top priority to sign to an extension?
Jeff Carr: Like saying water is wet, they should focus on Yasiel Puig. He will be a strong presence in the middle of the lineup, for the next two year, at least. In Puig’s career, during the months of March and April, he holds a slugging percentage of .389. Frightfully low number, that.
