The Reds have recently moved Todd Frazier to first base more often to accommodate Negron at third. That arrangement played out again Thursday as Negron went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base. Negron is an older prospect and thus doesn't have much in the way of keeper value, but it might also mean that he was more equipped for the transition to the major leagues once he got the call. He has impressed the team with his approach at the plate and his hustle everywhere. Until Joey Votto returns from the DL, Negron could play 4-to-5 times per week.
