That’s right, the best way for Cincinnati Reds’ fans to envision the future is to watch a team called the Javelinas. It’s not really as bad as it sounds. That’s the name of an Arizona Fall League team that has eight Reds’ minor leaguers on it.
Four of the players are pitchers – one starter, two swingmen, and one reliever. The other four are infielders. That’s eight Reds’ prospects on one team. They might not be as highly rated as Amir Garrett, but they could get there.
The pitchers are in Peoria to get specific experience.
