The Cincinnati Reds are going to have some balancing act going into 2026 to get all of their best players in the lineup at the same time. The corners are crowded in the infield, with Ke'Bryan Hayes, Eugenio Suarez, Spencer Steer, and Sal Stewart all vying for reps. That's four players for only three spots if you include DH.
Steer's versatility will help for 2026. The 28-year-old is expected to work in both the infield and the outfield this season. That work help for now, but what about the future? Things will only get more crowded.
