The Reds announced that they’ve designated infielder Matt Davidson for assignment.
Davidson, an offseason minor league signing for Cincinnati who previously appeared in the majors as a member of the Diamondbacks and White Sox, totaled 47 plate appearances for the Reds before they designated him. The 29-year-old homered three times during that short span, but he could still only put together a .163/.234/.395 line in 22 games.
Of course, Davidson is one of the rare major leaguers capable of playing a two-way game. He made his debut on the mound as a right-hander with the White Sox in 2018 and has added another 3 1/3 frames as a Red this season. Davidson gave up two earned runs on two walks (one strikeout) and four hits in 2020 prior to his designation.
That might be a wrap for Davidson.
He goes from batting 3rd to cut?
ask David Bell about that, and while you’re at it I have a few more questions too
David Bell is going to be unemployed in 3 weeks.
Hear hear….
Sorry David Bell isn’t going anywhere Until his contract is up
He was one of the better bullpen guys, says a lot about the bullpen.
No not the best PPP!!!
Senzel is coming back
Cool. When he’s hitting 280 w some power holla @ me
He can play two ways. Unfortunately he’s currently not playing very well either way.
I would cut Bell.
That would be the best move the reds do all year
Reds too proud.
The difference in talent between cubs and reds starts w manager and goes right to top. That’s why cubs are 5.5 games up on reds
Jake Cronenworth he ain’t.
.862 ops versus lefties.
Pitching or hitting?
He is a lefty killer
From opening day DH to DFA? And no one is questioning David Bell’s managerial decisions? Smh….
OK, I’m late to the party and still hopefully optimistic, but it’s becoming more and more apparent with each passing game. My beloved Redlegs still suck. And I am losing faith in David Bell.
I lost it a while ago.
Yeah I lost it awhile ago too! Just a few games ago that fool had Davidson batting 3rd! And now Dfa! And they lost again! 3/0
Maybe they are going to go young! They ain’t making the playoffs! And they are going to have a losing record again! And with the best pitching staff we have had in years!
It is time for Larkin to replace Bell!
Yes, please…
I think Larkin is a really bad choice for manager. As much of a dumpster fire as the Reds have become I think this would be pouring gasoline on the fire
Could Larkin do worse than Bell?
