After hearing him blame himself for the wild card loss, I feel the need to say, Sal, don’t be that hard on yourself. You’re 21. It kills me to hear he was that upset with himself after the game. Bud, you’re playing in the Majors, starting, AND you made it to the playoffs! There will always be mistakes, this wasn’t all on you, get back up and keep going. Can’t wait to see what you guys can do next year!
That’s all!

This should lift his spirits. He was once batting 1.000 😁
Hes a good kid. Hopefully we invest fully in him next year, because the dude can hit. Plain and simple.
And that stolen base??? He’s a gamer.
This kid is gonna be a great player. I can feel it. Hate to see him blame himself though.
Kid has a high ceiling
Sal seems like a major good vibes guy
nothing but love for him.
Sal exceeded my expectations. He hit well, and fielding issues are expected if any player is plugged into a position, let alone a twenty-one-year-old rookie. He did well and should be proud.
Yeah, it’s not exactly fair to throw a 21 year old with 18 career games into a playoff game playing a position he’s only played 13 times in his entire professional career. He was going to make a mistake at some point, it just really sucks it came in a pivotal moment. He’ll learn from it and end up better for it. He could end up being a really good player.
Need to lock him up now
Sounds like a hungry competitor. Love his attitude. Says he’s gonna get to work and wants to make it back to the playoffs.
Honestly more excited about him than Elly
He’s a dog. 3 years ago he was in high school, yesterday he was slapping a base hit for two rbis against the best team in baseball
Speaks volumes this is his take. Hope we get to see him in a Reds uniform for the next decade.
This is a future locker room leader. He’s going to have a long great career ahead of him.
I love this kid. You made it, Sal.
