Hoover had a 4.4 BB/9 last season, which would be the highest among all 2015 closers besides Aroldis Chapman, who of course, is not human. If you're drafting Hoover, I'd probably make sure to handcuff him with Jumbo Diaz, who has the much better peripherals.

Since 2B Brandon Phillips is vetoing all trades and Suarez looks like Frazier's replacement at 3B, is there any chance that Jose Peraza wins the SS job from Cozart? Although he only played 2B last season, Peraza was originally a SS in the Braves system so he can play either middle infield position. If Billy Hamilton struggles to hit again and if Peraza wins a starting job, the leadoff spot could be his to run with (pun intended).“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

"However, Peraza could wind up being a quasi-regular at multiple positions. "This kid we think is a tremendous player. We have to make the decision on if his value is going to be that type of flexibility and a guy that I can rotate around the field and get him regular playing time," manager Bryan Price said. "There’s no advantages to him being simply a bench player on this team not getting regular playing time. He’s going to play a lot of different positions and we’re going to see what his value is to the big-league ball club."

As for "not getting anything right", don't tell that to Walt Jocketty. He has ownership bamboozled into thinking he still knows what he's doing.Only the madman is absolutely sure. -Robert Anton Wilson, novelist (1932-2007)
Faith is believing what you know ain't so. -Mark Twain, author and humorist (1835-1910)
A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices.

Originally posted by Don Quixote View PostIf they trade Bruce, all the outfield spots are up for grabs. As much as they love Hamilton, the flaws in his game became exposed last year, yet his skills are such that he could become outstanding trade bait.
Yeah, i figure if Peraza ever turns into a good leadoff hitter, then Hamilton becomes expendable. The Reds obviously want to find out what they have in Peraza first. All the more reason to find him regular at bats.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
