The Reds recently added outfield depth by trading for glove-first center fielder Dane Myers from Miami and signing JJ Bleday to a $1.4MM deal. Both players will compete for playing time alongside TJ Friedl and Noelvi Marte, with Marte set as the everyday right fielder. The Reds are open to acquiring another outfielder, likely via trade, and have a projected payroll of around $111MM for the upcoming season. Friedl, who led the team with a .364 on-base percentage, is not on the trading block despite potential positional shifts.
