Jesse Winker was the Cincinnati Reds best hitter in 2020 and there's no reason (other than injury) that he won't be at the top of the team again this year. Jeff talks about why that's the case and also looks at Lucas Sims and why his break out in 2020 can also be trusted for this year. He then talks about the lineup looking good, some technical details, and an Opening Day ticket-buying question for you in the #JeffsJunkMail segment.
