Personally, I was surprised to see the Royals sign Jose Guillen, of whom I've never been a fan, which pretty much blocks Gathright from any significant playing time. They've got a likely outfield of Teahen/DeJesus/Guillen. So, Gathright does seem like the odd man out, despite having a pretty solid year in 2007. <BR/><BR/>That's part of why I mentioned him at all, as he could be a good fit for the Reds. After the 2008 season, the Reds could be without both Dunn and Griffey, so things could be opening up in the outfield. The Reds have long needed a leadoff hitter and Gathright in center *could* be an option. <BR/><BR/>-LarkLark11https://www.blogger.com/profile/06571198327064220683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6347536209014288641.post-17237887310455277152008-03-02T13:29:00.000-08:002008-03-02T13:29:00.000-08:00It wasn't so long ago that Gathright was considere...It wasn't so long ago that Gathright was considered one of the top prospects in baseball. The Royals don't seem to have any idea what to do with him... although the Reds already have too many outfielders.Butchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00470617214750867482noreply@blogger.com
