Episode Details

JJ Bleday, once non-tendered by the Athletics, has been exceeding expectations with the Cincinnati Reds. After a dominant stint in Triple-A, hes been making an impact in the majors, with a high walk rate, low strikeout rate, and improved plate discipline. Manager Terry Francona praises his performance, and Bleday himself attributes his success to learning to trust himself and his game. In his seventeen games with the Reds, hes been a regular in the outfield and has earned a spot in the middle of the lineup, hitting over .345 with an OPS over twelve hundred. The teams general manager, Nick Krall, sees potential for Bleday to be a three-win player again, and Bleday is focused on continuing to improve.
