      Left field, Rotation No. 5
      With the late signing of Jonny Gomes, who hit 20 homers in 281 at-bats last year, the battle for the left-field job became even more crowded. Gomes will likely platoon with Chris Dickerson (.275, two homers last year), but also in the mix are Laynce Nix (.239, 15), Wladimir Balentien (.234, 7) and Josh Anderson (.240, 1). Other possibilities include Juan Francisco, who starred in the 2010 Caribbean Series and hit 22 homers in Double-A last season, Chris Heisey (.347, 13 in Double-A) and Todd Frazier (.290, 14 in Double-A). Rotation No. 5: The biggest move the club made was outbidding teams for 21-year-old Cuban Aroldis Chapman. The lefty can throw 100 mph, but the Reds might play it cautious here and not rush him to the majors. Others auditioning for the final spot are lefties Matt Maloney (2-4, 4.87 in 40.2 innings last year) and Travis Wood (9-3, 1.21 in 119 IP at Double-A), and right-handers Micah Owings (7-12, 5.34 in 119.2), Justin Lehr (5-3, 5.37 in 65.1) and Mike Lincoln (1-1, 8.22 in 23), who is coming off a cervical disk replacement surgery last summer.

        Spring Outlook - Scott Miller's Take
        I'm sorry, but I'm not going all doom and gloom on the beleaguered Reds again this spring. Aroldis Chapman could help solidify a rotation with Aaron Harang, Johnny Cueto and Bronson Arroyo (sigh, too bad Edinson Volquez is out until after the All-Star Game). Scott Rolen's bat and professionalism over an entire season at third base is a big plus. I like the signing of shortstop Orlando Cabrera. I'm optimistic Joey Votto won't spend half this season dizzy as he was in 2009. Maybe these Reds aren't built to win the NL Central, but with a few breaks, they should be built to improve on last year's 78-84 record. They'd better, because manager Dusty Baker is entering the final season of his three-year deal. And if the Reds start slowly again, the sharks will be out.
