Interesting 3/6 column by Lonnie Wheeler of the Cincinnati Post.
Quote:
Of the 62 players in the Reds training camp, all but two lefties and a veteran catcher, it seems, are trying to win the starting second-base job. The smart money is on Tony Womack.
...
It appears that the youngest candidates, Ray Olmedo and William Bergolla, aren't serious candidates. Rich Aurilia, who finished last season playing well at second, has started one Grapefruit game at third and another at shortstop. Duty could call him anywhere, as it so often does Ryan Freel. At 35, Frank Menechino has been a regular only once in his eight American League seasons.

It doesn't sound as though the Reds have a whole choose from here, at least Wheeler makes it sound that way. But Womack and Aurilia are both at least half-decent players who might have a positive impact on the club. What do you Reds fans think? Who do you want starting at 2B?
