Reds Want To Make Sure Nick Senzel Is Fully Ready Before Promoting Him
7 years agoWhen the Atlanta Braves promoted top prospect Ronald Acuna on Wednesday, it caused many onlookers to question when the Cincinnati Reds would promote third baseman Nick Senzel. According to general manager Dick Williams, the team wants to make sure Senzel is fully ready before they bring him up to the big leagues. Williams also stated that it will be Senzel's performance in Triple-A and not the needs of the big league club, which will determine when he gets the call. Senzel isn't exactly tearing up minor league pitching, batting .246 with one homer in 69 plate appearances. It appears likely that Senzel will debut at some point during the 2018 season, but it may not be for a while.
