Couldn't disagree with you more about rotating players. Give me a good example when this has ever worked. Hamilton has PROVED over the past 5 season's he can't hit, period, end of story. Play Schebler ever day in center and Winker in right. We as Reds fans need something to look forward to ASAP, and not watch Hamilton hit .230 and have an OBP of .282 yet again, as your lead off hitter in year 6 of this experiment, that ship has sailed. The players retarding this teams grow are the following. 1) Homer Bailey, worst contract in Reds history. 2) Billy Hamilton is a novelty item, something this team can't afford to have. 3) Jose Peraza is only playing because the Reds have to try and make the Todd Frazier trade mean something. These are really the only 3 players I have issues with on this team, ALL 3 should be gone ASAP, in order for this teams growth to continue, and not be the same ole same ole pile of DUNG.

Here is what this Reds team lineup should be once Senzel get's called up in 6-8 weeks, waiting any longer doesn't affect his clock anyway, Planky.

1) Winker RF
2) Gennett 2B
3) Votto 1B
4) Duvall LF
5) Suarez 3B
6) Schebler CF
7) Senzel SS
8) Barnhart C
9) Pitcher

Players dont play every day anymore, if every player gets a day off during the week, that means there is 3 days the 4th outfielder will play, not counting in game substitutes.

Baileys contract is only bad, because he has been injured, his contract is actually a steal compared to the market contracts of other teams.

Hamiltons contract is below average for a non power outfielder so try again.

Peraza, who do you want to replace him with? Gennett isnt a proven everyday player yet.

Yet you left off the worst contract on the team in Votto. This contract has hamstrung the Reds for years and will for the remaining 6 years of the deal. $25M a year for a bat is ridiculous to pay.
