Cincinnati Reds: Young Stars and New Addition
The Cincinnati Reds are making waves in the National League with their young and talented roster. Players like Elly De La Cruz, Matt McLain, Spencer Steer, Jonathan India, Tyler Stephenson, Noelvi Marte, Will Benson, TJ Friedl, and more have been taking the league by storm, especially in the recent 2023 season.
Pitchers Andrew Abbott, Hunter Greene, Nick Lodolo, and new signings Nick Martinez and Frankie Montas add to the team’s strength on the mound. However, the Reds felt they needed a utilityman and decided to take a chance on former two-time All-Star, Josh Harrison.
Harrison, known for his time with the Pittsburgh Pirates in the early-to-mid 2010s, has played for multiple MLB teams. He brings valuable experience and versatility to the Reds’ roster. Despite turning 37 in July and having a less impressive performance in 2023 with the Philadelphia Phillies, Harrison’s willingness to earn his spot on a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training is commendable.
The MSM agency announced Harrison’s signing with the Cincinnati Reds, expressing excitement about his addition to the team. As a career .270 hitter with over 4,300 MLB plate appearances and two All-Star Game appearances, Harrison is expected to provide veteran leadership and play a versatile role on the field.
If Harrison secures a spot on the Reds’ young and talented roster, he could become a valuable source of wisdom and advice for the team. The Reds are on the rise, and Harrison’s addition could further strengthen their chances of success in the upcoming seasons.
