In Game 1 of the playoff series last October, Miguel Andujar and Austin Hays hit third and fourth. In Game 2, Gavin Lux and Hays hit third and fourth. Lux led the Reds in batting average last year. The Reds still have work to do in the middle of their lineup.

@CharlieG__ Batting average is great but the guy had -0.2 bWAR on the season in 140 games played. 97 ops+ and 5HRs. Does the lineup need work? Absolutely. But trading that for a plus reliever and $3M in payroll, I’d take that every day
