Original story predicting composition:

Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell should not release his Opening day Alignment until Thursday morning, but he kept some players in the same place in order throughout the spring, which should hint at how he wants to build his alignments.

Joey Votto has always been second, Matt Kemp third and Eugenio Suárez the clean. Jesse Winker was a head batter when he was in the formation, but it's unclear how Bell will divide the mounds between Winker and Kemp in the left field.

The Gennett scooter was a candidate for victory before being injured in the groin, which will avoid it for the next 8-12 weeks. Yasiel Puig mainly scored from fourth to sixth place in the spring.
