Reds signing Jazz Chisholm Jr? That’s what was proposed in an article by Bleacher Report’s Zachary D. Rymer ranking the best destinations for Jazz, naming the Reds as a top-5 fit.

Coming off a 19-HR, 41-SB year (.711 OPS, 1.7 rWAR) and a tough postseason, Rymer notes Jazz might seek a 1-year "prove-it" deal for 2027. 

That’s where Cincy comes in:

"The Reds got an MLB-low -0.7 rWAR from the keystone this season, as well as a 90 wRC+ from the left side of the plate... Chisholm could help them address both issues with one signing."

He would be a 2.4 rWAR upgrade: Cincy’s 2B production was a league-worst -0.7 rWAR. Replacing that with Jazz’s 1.7 baseline is an obvious improvement. 

The Reds 90 left handed hitter's wRC+ was 2nd-worst in MLB.

GABP’s short right-field porch is built for Jazz’s pull-side air-ball profile and 8.8% barrel rate.

Pairing Jazz’s 41 steals with Elly De La Cruz (both 95th+ percentile Sprint Speed) creates relentless pressure on opposing pitch clocks... only to face RBI merchant Sal Stewart 😳

Rymer acknowledges Cincy’s historical FA spending limits (max $64M for Castellanos/Moustakas), but a high-AAV 1-year pillow contract fills our biggest analytical holes without long-term risk. 

The Reds have an insanely talented 2B prospect in Edwin Arroyo who has shown the flexibility to play multiple positions, this would all be assuming he could fit elsewhere on the field.

And that Matt McLain would be in Triple-A.

What do you guys think, should the Reds pull the trigger on a 1-year Jazz experiment? 

If you hate this idea by Bleacher Report, comment one name you would like to see the Reds go acquire this off-season.
