Skipper

Replacing Dusty Baker is a tall task, but Bryan Price has brought his own touch to the Reds since assuming the reins back in 2013. His first season in Cincinnati was a forgettable one – but more than anything, that can be chalked up to the injuries that ravaged his club.

Price, the former pitching coach for the club, was brought back this season – along with general manager Walt Jocketty – but if things head south for a second consecutive season, he may find himself on some thin ice.

After four years as the Reds’ pitching coach, it was time for Price to get his shot. Now that the has a healthy roster, we can see what he is capable of as a big league skipper.
