After Bell finished building his coaching staff, his focus shifted to reachi ng out to players and talking with coaches to make plans for next season. One player he can envision using in a variety of roles is right-handed pitch er Michael Lorenzen, who pitched well out of the bullpen and made three star ts at the end of the season. He had a 3.11 ERA in 45 appearances last year. “I don't know him as well as everyone else in the organization, but I would have no hesitation to putting him in any role, any position,” Bell said. “ He's so competitive. He takes such great care of himself. He's going to do w ell in this game for a long time and it’ll be important for us to find at t he best way to use him, the best way to maximize who he is.” Bell said he is open to using Lorenzen in the outfield, in a讁ery limited ro le, for additional flexibility off the bench. Using Lorenzen in the outfield for brief stints could be a factor in keeping an extra pitcher on the 25-man roster. Lorenzen was a two-way player in col lege and played one inning in right field last season. At the plate, he had nine hits in 31 at-bats with four home runs and 10 RBI. “To have an athlete like that, that at the very least can have good at-bats and handle the bat and not be an out, I think it's an example and kind of a n inspiration for all of our pitchers,” Bell said. “We'll find a way to al low him to contribute in that way.” Bell, who spoke to players on the phone after he was hired, said the Reds ha ve not determined which role Homer Bailey will fill next season. Bailey had a 1-14 record and 6.09 ERA in 20 starts last season. Do the Reds want him to compete for a spot in the bullpen? “It’s so early. I know this isn’t early for people that have been in Cinc innati, but for us and our staff, (we're) trying to develop that relationshi p with (Bailey) and see where he fits in with everything else we’re doing,” Bell said. “He’s a good pitcher. To try to put him in a position that can help us succeed, but at the same time, find something that’s comfortable f or him and something that he welcomes and sees as a challenge.” When Bell walked past Nick Senzel at Redsfest, Senzel mentioned that he was preparing to play center field. Bell likes Senzel’s confidence and he believes that Senzel will have a role with the Reds wherever the organization’s top prospect is playing on the f ield. Senzel started playing in the outfield during the instructional league , working with Eric Davis at the team’s Spring Training complex in Goodyear , Arizona. “I think he’s capable of doing whatever we do, but it’s our job to put hi m in a good position, especially with breaking into the Major Leagues,” Bel l said of Senzel. “He’s going to contribute. He’s going to contribute a l ot." Senzel, ranked as the No. 6 prospect in baseball by MLB.com, hit .310 with s ix homers and 25 RBI in 44 games at Triple-A Louisville last season. His sea son ended at the end of June when he suffered a season-ending finger injury. The Reds don’t have a natural center fielder after they chose not to tender a contract to Billy Hamilton, but Bell said he’s confident in the team’s internal options: Senzel, Scott Schebler and Phillip Ervin. The club could a dd another center fielder through free agency or a trade. Whichever position Senzel plays – and it could be multiple positions – Bel l is hopeful that he will earn an everyday role. “He’s going to be with us and he’s going to play a lot,” Bell said. “He may play multiple positions. He may settle in at one position – eventually , he will do that. We see in today’s game, to have that versatility, to be able to play multiple positions, you can end up getting a guy regular at-bat s, regular playing time just at multiple places.” The Reds claimed left-handed reliever Robby Scott off waivers Monday from th e Boston Red Sox. Scott pitched in nine games last season, mostly as a Septe mber call-up, allowing six runs in 6 2/3 innings. The 29-year-old Scott made 57 appearances during the 2017 season and had a 3 .79 ERA. He’s held left-handed batters to a .149 batting average in his car eer. The Reds are not in current discussions to sign second baseman Scooter Genne tt to a long-term contract, and they are not actively shopping him on the tr ade market, according to a source. Gennett is expected to make around $11 million next year through arbitration and will be eligible for free agency following the 2019 season. With severa l free agent options at second base, there likely wouldn’t be much of a tra de market anyway. 來源：https://reurl.cc/akQq3 ---- Sent from BePTT -- 我張開嘴巴，想起過去在PTT上寫過的怪力亂神，一時間不知道該怎麼歸類自己的文章。「純文學。」我瞇起眼睛。「純文學？」貓小姐皺眉。「很多網友看過我的文章後，都會在下面留言說，這篇很純。」 by 二師兄 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 140.119.121.6 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/MLB/M.1544498423.A.95F.html ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ※ 轉錄者: rt3648yth (140.119.121.6), 12/11/2018 11:48:52 ※ 編輯: rt3648yth (140.119.121.6), 12/11/2018 11:50:53
