I’d say he’s having a pretty good start to his mlb career. Wow

This is what Sano was supposed to be. I hope this kid has a better work ethic and can keep this up. Reds fans deserve to have something to cheer for because they've been mostly horse shit over the last 20 years.

Great play, but what the hell were the Brewers doing there? They let that happen to them just by being lazy, dejected slobs.

The Reds signed him out of the Dominican Republic for a measly $65,000. Insane.

That's the way it goes sometimes. They got lucky, hopefully for their fans they can hold onto him. Because when it comes to the Reds, they are even cheaper than the Twins when it involves spending big money.

I'm not saying he's a star yet but this guy was in upper 1-A Cedar Rapids as a Twin last season and is already a Cincinnati Red since we traded him last year.
