With the addition of Eugenio Suarez over the weekend, the Reds’ roster is pretty much set.
Appearing on the Reds Hot Stove on Tuesday night, Nick Krall all but confirmed that.
“This is where we are barring an unforeseen circumstance,” Krall said.
Let’s take a look at Cincinnati’s current depth chart. Obviously, this will need to be reduced to 25 players by Opening Day. The following depth chart comes from the official Reds’ website. I highly doubt Eugenio Suarez will play a single inning of shortstop.
