We are less than two weeks away from Opening Day and the excitement throughout Reds Country is palpable. The Cincinnati Reds ranked second in the National League Central in batting average last season, but still finished in last place. How will the team’s additions affect their standing this season?
We can debate this until the cows come home, but from where I’m sitting, the NL Central is the toughest division in all of baseball. Yes, the National League East will be a difficult division to navigate as well, but the Miami Marlins take that division down a notch and the NL Central should stand above every other when it comes to competition this season.
