I also think it might be indicative of a large difference of opinion between the Org and people like Law on Reed’s ability in CF. Most of the CF pt at AAA has gone to Presley and Young Jr. It seems that if the Org was serious about Reed in CF in the MLB at some point this year, he would get the bulk of the pt there. Obviously he could (and should) get a lot of reps there this year. I mean, if they’re going to put Santana there last year…

I would love to see Reed grab that job and show that he is a long term option in the OF. Certain scouts , notable Law and Farnsworth at FanGraphs, think highly of his projection in CF. He certainly seems to have the athletic ability for it. I’m rooting for him.
