Never too early for me to start thinking of 2024!
Going in to 2024 I have six guys who should never sit unless it’s a rest day
Friedl CF
McClain 2B
Marte SS
Elly 3B
Steer LF
CES 1B
Bat Elly in between Marte and Steer and he will see more fastballs. These guys have earned everyday status and should not be out of the lineup for matchups
Benson RF should start most games versus RHP and Stephenson should start most games at catcher. Fraley and India share DH and fill in for rest games for the starters.
Starting pitchers who will competing for five spots listed by who I think are most likely to start the season in the rotation
Greene
Ashcraft
Abbott
Williamson
Then you have the potentials
Phillips
Lodolo
Petty
Richardson
Lively
Lowder
Bullpenners
Diaz
Sims
Antone
Gibault
Cruz
Duarte
Moll ( I would try to resign)
Law
Smith
So it looks like the Reds priorities would be reserve catcher, RH utility if not India, bullpen help.
