After bungling the process of finding a competent shortstop this winter, the Cincinnati Reds have had to get creative in filling that position. The silver lining of that is that creativity usually leads to some genuinely fun experiments, but even that hasn’t been the case so far in Reds camp. Kyle Farmer, whose natural position is catcher, is getting reps there. Dee Strange-Gordon, whose time at shortstop has been extremely rare since 2013, has seen time in camp there as well. Those are fun in theory, until you remember that neither of those hitters have had a wRC+ better than 76 in the last three seasons.
