It's difficult to watch...seems to think his defense is enough

It was in the air a long time
Other than a couple plays in left early I. The season, Church isn’t impressive enough in the field to overcome his weak bat.

gotta find a better bat, and defense equals Masyn's defense...until then, you live with it. You get a better bat with worse defense, then the ERA's of your starters and relievers will balloon.

if you can get better hitters at C, 3B, CF and LF, then you can live with the SS offensive deficiency

It might just be my perception, but it seems like JJ has expanded his strike zone lately and his pitch selection is not as great. Could just be me.

Also he seems to lean back on his heels as he swings causing him to be off balance.

JMO but I think Wetherholt could benefit from a few days off.

Reds should probably release Elly after being thrown out by Ivan.

Yes I can live with Winn as a GG SS as that is your most “defense first” position.
Hopefully Bernal/Rodriquez/Jesus B/ Josh B take care of C/LF/3B??
