Baseball America released their list of Top 10 Reds Prospects. I’m not a premium subscriber, but both the Red Reporter and Reds and Blues touch on the story nicely. Last year’s first round pick, Homer Bailey, was chosen as the top prospect.

Jayson Stark wrote a column on the 10 most improved teams, and the Reds came in at number nine. I think the Reds made some signings that look good, but once we get down to business, I think it’s going to be more of the same. Having Austin Kearns and Ken Griffey, Jr. around for an entire season is worth more then anything they’ve picked up, but their pitching is still going to be near rock bottom. In fact, there’s a chance that for the first time ever, two starters on the same team could give up 40 taters.
