Bryan Price wants the Reds to be aggressive on the basepaths.
Billy Hamilton at the top of the order, automatically increases the Reds aggressiveness.
"We are going to open things up in spring training," Price said. "One way to find out where we need to improve, is to give these guys more responsibility and freedom to see what they do with it. It creates more of dialogue between the coaches and the players."

"Whether it is choosing the best time to run, situational baserunning, holding runners, you find out where they need to focus. Until you give them the freedom to do it, you don't find out who needs the extra work or who is more adept than we are giving them credit for."
Price wants to get more production from the bottom of the batting order.
"We have a couple guys, (Zach) Cozart and (Todd) Frazier, who are capable base stealers," Price said. "We want to create more opportunities to once we get past (Jay) Bruce in the order."
