How much can he hold up? My sources with the Reds have both told me that they aren't going to know if Gonzalez will be healthy until he starts to play.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135558796004211830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050692851735806688.post-9776243014698529462009-01-08T12:30:00.000-05:002009-01-08T12:30:00.000-05:00Gonzalez did not play well defensively for us the ...Gonzalez did not play well defensively for us the one year he was there either and now you have added injuries and a year without playing at all. On top of that, he offers nothing offensively. I don't love Hairston being our starting shortstop, but I think its better than the alternative. I do like him as a utility guy who can play a lot of positions and get on base.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050692851735806688.post-32958020252777879882009-01-07T17:25:00.000-05:002009-01-07T17:25:00.000-05:00Hairston rated near the bottom defensively for any...Hairston rated near the bottom defensively for any shortstop that played more than 35 games their last season.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04625124117047761000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050692851735806688.post-4748899811263708092009-01-07T15:07:00.000-05:002009-01-07T15:07:00.000-05:00I like it.

I think he is a better option at SS rather or not Gonzalez is healthy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
