The Reds need a better defensive outfielder, and they were connected to Robert Jr in the off season. It came out that the White Sox were asking for 4 players including more than one Top 100 level prospect.

I think he is a true bounce back player if he could get out of Chicago. That has to be demoralizing. His running style on the base paths would fit with the Reds. But man, he can't stay healthy. Last year he played in 100 games.
