Cincinnati Reds links: Nick Senzel to left field, not center field

The Athletic’s C. Trent Rosecrans relayed earlier today that the Cincinnati Reds will indeed get top prospect Nick Senzel some time in the OF during instructional league play - and that they’ll do so with him playing left field, instead of center field. That’s a rather innocuous revelation, I suppose, unless you actually take a look at the current construction of the Reds roster and would like to have some hope, any hope that the 2019 season will go better than any of the last, I dunno, five years have.

The idea that Senzel might be capable of playing CF instead of being stuck in a corner spot is one that’s not entirely foreign, either.
