Cincinnati Reds manager Dusty Baker flip-flopped 3B Todd Frazier and OF Jay Bruce in the batting order Sunday, April 28, with Frazier batting in the No. 5 spot and Bruce batting sixth. One of the reasons is because Bruce has struggled in his career against Washington Nationals SP Ross Detwiler, collecting only one hit in 11 at-bats against the lefty. It is uncertain how long this lineup change will last.

The Cincinnati Reds plan to have OF Shin-Soo Choo play center field, with OF Jay Bruce remaining in right field. Bruce had called manager Dusty Baker earlier in the offseason and offered to arrive at camp lighter, in preparation for playing center, in case team officials decided that Choo would be a better fit in right. Choo has played center field 10 times in his MLB career but only once in the last six seasons, while Bruce has 35 games of experience in center field (all during the 2008 season).
