Who is the best centerfielder in the history of the Cincinnati Reds?

Geronimo was the best defensively. Eric Davis was pretty good with the glove but was more dangerous with the bat. Griffey Jr. has both a good glove and bat but  can't seem to stay healthy. All in all I would go with Geronimo.

In 1975, the Cincinnati Reds won the World Series over the \nBoston Red Sox, four games to three.\n\nIn game seven, Clay Carrol was the winning pitcher and Jim Burton was the losing pitcher.\n\nTony Perez, in the sixth inning, hit the only home run.\n\nThe final score was, \nCincinnati: 4 \nBoston: 3.

Mike Schmidt of the PHILLIES, one of the best (if not the best) third baseman's to play the game. As a kid I used to watch him crank out homers at Veterans Stadium. Michael Jack Schmidt was THE MAN.

So far. Do you think he'll be a closer all season or will he become a set-up man or a started when Keith Foulkes is healthy?\n\nBilly Wagner is still the guy I would most like to hafve on my team. I think 2 others I would give strong consideration to are Francisco Rodriguez & Bob Wickman.\n\n\n\n\nMariano Rivera - greatest closer of all time? I disagree. He's certainly in the top 10 but how about Sparky Lyle? Rollie Fingers? Dennis Eckersley (the guy LaRussa invented the position for)? Or maybe Goose Gossage, Lee Smith or Bruce Sutter? I agree that Rivera was good but he didn't have a long enough career to be great - for 4 years, unstoppable. Rest of his career, good but not great.

I LOOOVVVEEEE the Reds, but I hate that all my favorite players are gone.  Opening day was simply not the same without Sean Casey.... :(

I picked up Zimmerman when Pujols went on the DL. He's very consistent and with Soriano ahead of him, he gets plenty of chances at knocking him in.....Over long term course of the season, he's the better choice, imo.

Edwin Encarnacion of Cincinnati a fielding percentage of .877 for a third baseman.  He has 8 errors already this year in 65 chances.  That is terrible for an infielder.

smoltz and kent are already in. smoltz has better credentials than dennis eckersly(both were great starters and closers) whose already in. kent is already all-time leader in hr by 2nd basemen. other than that i agree with your list.

i think cy young's victory record is the only record that is unbreakable.  i suppose that doesn't make him necessarily the best.  walter johnson was supposed to be awesome.  ever hear the story about bob feller?  he threw a called strike to a guy, and the batter said "it sounded low."

Does Nolan Ryan count? Talk about the greatest arm when it comes to pitchers in the MLB history.

For a Rotisserie League no doubt its Maddux. I dont have enough faith in the O's offence at this moment. The Cubs seem to me like they are going to do more in the Central this year.

C - Josh Gibson; can't forget about the Negro Leagues; Bench is definitely one to consider though\n\n1B - Lou Gehrig; in about 20 years, I may be putting Pujols here\n\n2B - Rogers Hornsby; consideration given to Nap Lajoie and Rod Carew\n\nSS - Honus Wagner; Ozzie Smith was the best defensive SS, and Ernie Banks was the best offensive SS, but Wagner is the best all around; probably the toughest position to pick\n\n3B - Mike Schmidt; Brooks Robinson was better defensively, but Schmidt was significantly better at the plate, which is why he gets the nod\n\nLF - Stan Musial; I know a lot of people are wondering about Williams here, but Musial had nearly 1000 more career hits, was a 24 time All Star and a 3 time MVP, not to mention the four World Series that he played in.  And he played in roughly the same time frame ('41-'63) as Williams ('39-'60), who was a 17 time All Star and won 1 MVP while playing in just one World Series.\n\nCF - Willie Mays; with some big considerations to Mantle, Cobb, and Oscar Charleston\n\nRF - Babe Ruth; all apologizes to Aaron (with his career HR and RBI records) and Clemente (with his 12 Gold Gloves), but it was Ruth's lifetime .342 average that really got me leaning this way...oh yeah, and he hit for quite a bit of power.\n\nSP - Walter Johnson; with a large amount of consideration given to Young, Spahn, Mathewson, Bob Gibson, Satchel Paige and Koufax, but it was Johnson's W's, K's, shut-outs (110) and lifetime 2.35 ERA that set him apart from the pack.\n\nRP - Eckersley; revolutionized the closer position, after spending 12 years as a starter\n\nPH - Lenny Harris, has more pinch hits than anybody else in the history of the game, and a .263 career average as a pinch hitter (not bad considering he has 800+ career PH AB's)\n\nHonorable Mention - Looking over the list of players that I didn't include, it's difficult to pick just one.  However, I'd have to go with Ted Williams for the Honorable Mention.  If he played just about any other position, he would have been my first choice.

Hell yeah, with the Reds and the Bengals (who dey) through thick and thin. The Big Red Machine shall return. By the way, Rose better get into the hall of fame in my lifetime.

I love Randy johnson, but you can't ignore Johan Santana. Dude is money with his changeup.  Here is a guy who can win on a $hitty team that can't hit!  Johan has not only been the best lefthanded pitcher, he has been the best pitcher the past 2-3 years.  \nFransico Liriano is an up and comer too, watch out for him.\nUnit is great, but he is clearly way past his prime.  one of the best pitchers of all time though, no question about that.
