Why Jonathan India may not win NL Rookie of the Year and What's at Stake for Major League Baseball with these Labor Negotiations
Summary: Jonathan India had an amazing rookie season and has swept pretty much every rookie of the year award to this point, so there's no way the Cincinnati Reds second baseman will miss out on the BBWAA NL Rookie of the Year award...right? Before Jeff tells you why Dylan Carlson or Trevor Rogers might steal the show, he looks at something MLB and the Players should be considering as they get set to haggle over money. Also, is Jonathan India the best Cincinnati Reds player for the foreseeable future? With the Collective Bargaining Agreement set to expire on December 1st, the owners and the player of MLB are getting set for a battle. Amidst all the posturing and bickering, one thing cannot be forgotten: the fans. With baseball's tenuous position amongst the major professional sports in America, a prolonged lockout could be damning. Tonight the NL Rookie of the Year Award winner (among others) will be announced. It seems intuitive that Jonathan India will take home the hardware, but it's not guaranteed. Dylan Carlosn and Trevor Rogers have an argument. And who is the best Cincinnati Red for the foreseeable future? Considering all avenues of hitting, fielding, running, health, marketability, and so on, is it Jonathan India? Is it Jesse Winker? Is it Luis Castillo? Or who is it? Jeff gives you his take. *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonreds Also follow @jefffcarr on Twitter and @carrjefff on Instagram Call or text (513) 549-0159 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
