I really like what I see from him. What does everyone think his future is?
He seems like a younger Bay with better defense.

I don't recall any complaints about Bay'sdefense until the Sox decided to
let him go and they needed to justify it.
then all of a sudden its "he can't field" . bullshit.

I'm not trying to stir up debate about Bay's departure. Personally I think
the Sox made a bad mistake and settled on an inferior option in Cameron.
We'll definitely miss Bay's bat and his high OPS. We'll now see too many
K's and a low average. I guess I have stirred the debate.

But getting back to my original post I was just stating that I liked Reddick
and was pointing out some of his similarities with Bay. Perhaps I went
overboard on his defensive play. I was also asking what everyone thought
about Reddick's future. I almost would prefer him over Cameron.

That's all

Bay has always been a below average fielder.

The only decent year he had was 2006.
