Joey Votto underwent successful surgery on Friday to repair his should and should return to the Cincinnati Reds sometime before or during Spring Training next year.

Joey Votto announced after the Cincinnati Reds walk-off win that he will have season-ending surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff in his left shoulder. Jeff and Steve see this as the stage being set for his 2023 Comeback Player of the Year campaign. This also shows that the poor numbers he had put up this year was due to him playing through the injury and not because Votto was succumbing to Father Time. The Reds now have a decision to make. Will the Reds choose the easy route and just stick Mike Moustakas at first base? Or will the Reds choose the right path and call up Spencer Steer and move Kyle Farmer to first base? Also, Steve sits down with one of the Cincinnati Reds top prospects and we have a sneak peek in this bonus episode of the podcast.

Jose Barrero hit a walk-off single as Nick Lodolo and Alexis Diaz pitched a combined shutout to help the Cincinnati Reds avoid the sweep from the Philadelphia Phillies. Jeff and Steve are joined by Connor Thomas from Locked On Phillies to detail the dominant hitting from the Phillies, the rough pitching (except for Wednesday) for the Reds, and how the Phillies have transformed after the firing of Joe Girardi. The Reds and Phillies have a key connection that is benefitting the Phillies and it is not Nick Castellanos. Also, the Reds and Phillies futures are very different as the Phillies look like a layoff team.

Jonathan India returned to the lineup on Tuesday and homered for the Cincinnati Reds, but it wasn't from the leadoff spot. Jeff and Steve look at the versatility he has in his game and how it can provide value all over the Reds lineup. Eric Davis had some scathing words about Aristides Aquino and the pitching has been rough, lately, which begs the question for the Reds of where should the line be? Also, MLB Pipeline released their new Top-100 and the Reds got five players in it, including Elly De La Cruz and Noelvi Marie in the top-20.

Kyle Farmer has acclimated very nicely to third base for the Cincinnati Reds. Jeff and Steve see his stock rising for the Reds, over the next few seasons. Nick Castellanos returned to Great American Ballpark and the love affair between the city of Cincinnati and the Castellanos family was rekindled for a night. The bottom of the lineup really drove the scoring last night as we saw nice games for Albert Almora, Matt Reynolds, and Michael Papierski. They show the Reds there is some value in their game. Also, TJ Zeuch gets his second start of the season tonight and there are two keys to his success against this Philadelphia Phillis lineup.

Jake Fraley has been on fire and Donovan Solano has brought consistency and leadership to the Cincinnati Reds. Jeff and Steve look at the future for both Fraley and Solano. The Reds front office has handled much of the Reds key future stars health in a concerning way, does Nick Krall know how to operate the IL? Also, Joel Kuhnel has shown himself to be a reliable option out of the bullpen recently which has Jeff wondering, is he a guy now? Steve isn't so sure, but they both agree Kuhnel and Revier SanMartin are trending in the right direction. And Alexis Diaz has something in common with Hunter Strickland that is a cause for concern.

The Cincinnati Reds didn't get the victory in the Field of Dreams game over the Chicago Cubs, but the night was full of baseball memories that were unaffected by the outcome. Jeff and Steve look a bit at the performance of Nick Lodolo and the continued brilliance of Joey Votto mic'ed up during a game. The Reds lineup has struggled quite a bit in the last two weeks and we dive into how much the Reds are leaving at the batter's box. Also, what do Frank Robinson, Chris Sabo, Sean Casey, and Edd Roush all have in common? They are in our Reds Field of Dreams draft!

The New York Mets dominated the Cincinnati Reds in ever facet of the game. This kind of performance shows why the Mets will win the National League and go to the World Series. Jeff is joined by Ryan Finkelstein from Locked On Mets to look at the dominance of the Mets pitching and the absolute inevitability of the Mets lineup led by Pete Alonso. Meanwhile, the Reds have development on their mind...or do they? David Bell seems more focused on piling up as many wins on a nightly basis as possible.

David Bell pulled Jose Barrero for Alejo Lopez with the bases loaded Tuesday night as the Cincinnati Reds trailed the New York Mets. That decision has Jeff and Steve fuming and they explain why. Jake Fraley and Donovan Solano have been positive influences on this Reds lineup, in more than one way. Also, TJ Zeuch makes his Reds debut today. Who is he, where does he come from, and what can you expect are all topics during today's final segment.
