    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings February 19, 2019 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1919-The Reds trade Hal Chase to the Giants for Bill Rariden. Chase spent three years with the Reds, amassing a .306 batting average while collecting 69 doubles and 206 RBI MLB.COM Puig ready to take Cincy by storm: 'I love red' By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Feb. 18th, 2019 GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- New Reds outfielder Yasiel Puig has been in camp for about a week, often hitting on his own on the backfields. With the first full-squad workout taking place on Monday, Puig was able to warm up, throw and hit with his teammates. Puig, acquired in December's seven-player trade with the Dodgers, clearly enjoys his new club. "Now I've met all of my teammates here in Spring Training the last couple of days and today was our first day working together," Puig said. "Today was an amazing day. We are having fun on the field. We're hitting in the cage. We're working out and talking about expectations as a team and working together as a family to have success for the season." During batting practice with Jesse Winker, Matt Kemp, and Scott Schebler, Puig chatted between turns as the group kept track of points while competing. Puig hit a couple of long balls that cleared the fence in left field. Reds manager David Bell also sensed Puig's happiness and upbeat personality. "He has a lot of energy, and he's been interacting with players, coaches, a lot of people," Bell said.
