From Cincinnati.com:
Bellhorn is the only infielder in the mix for the remaining spots. He has versatility on his side. He can play first, second and third base and he's a switch-hitter.
He hit .264 with 17 home runs and 82 RBI in '04. He's hit .201 in two years since.
He's looked good early in camp. He has a home run and five RBI.
"He's looked good everywhere we've put him," Narron said.
Bellhorn signed a minor-league deal with the Reds because he thought he'd be a good fit.
"A person like myself who can play different positions, hit from both sides of the plate, do a bit of everything, the National League is a good fit," he said. "I know Jerry likes to use his bench a lot. I can help out in those situations. It's an opportunity to play."
The downside with Bellhorn is he strikes out a great deal - 718 times in 2,093 big-league at-bats.
If Bellhorn doesn't make it, Ryan Freel would be used as an infielder as well as an outfielder.
