2015 Fantasy Outlook
One of the big problems for the Reds in 2014 was that they lacked replacement-level hitters to step in whenever one of their regulars got hurt or needed a rest. Lutz is a good example of that -- on occasion they turned to him to start at first base or in left field, and he wasn't ready to perform, posting a .477 OPS in 54 plate appearances. Part of the problem for him is that he was called up too soon in 2013 -- he spent a lot of time on the bench on the big league roster when he needed to compile at-bats at Double-A, but because the Reds' bench was so thin, there he was. He's not really a potential solution for the Reds' hole in left field for 2015.
