Locked On Reds - Daily Podcast On The Cincinnati Reds

The Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates meet for the first four games of what is sure to be a knock-down, drag-out series to see which team is the worst in the NL Central. Jeff and Steve are joined by Ethan Smith, from Locked On Pirates, to preview this comical series that is about to take place. They give their predictions as to why the Pirates will win this series (although, Jeff thinks the Reds and Pirates will split), they look at the pitching matchups of the Reds and Pirates and why Nick Lodolo is the starter who is sure to get the Reds a win, and they break down why a couple of top prospects in O'Neill Cruz and Graham Ashcraft have yet to debut. The future for the Res and Pirates is bright, but this weekend will be more comical that confrontational.

The Cincinnati Reds got clobbered by the Milwaukee Brewers as Vladimir Gutierrez and every other pitcher turned in horrible performances. Jeff and Steve look at what went wrong, including terrible bullpen performances from Buck Farmer and Lucas Sims. They also look at the historic nature of the Reds futility and offer to be a Sham-Wow for Reds fans. They then look at the few positives that exist from last night's game including two-way star-in-the-making Matt Reynolds, Mike Moustakas with another multi-hit game, and a great first inning for Reds hitters. Also, shoutout to the Dayton Dragons who are awesome. Then they give you what to expect from Hunter Greene in the Milwaukee finale.

Tyler Mahle struggled through yesterday's start against the Milwaukee Brewers and brings up the question: will he ever live up to his potential that Cincinnati Reds fans saw in him as a prospect? Jeff and Steve discuss why they don't believe he will, but why that's not entirely a bad thing. They also wonder if this will be the last time Vladimir Gutierrez makes a start for the Cincinnati Reds, for awhile. They then predict the legacy of the 2022 Cincinnati Reds and why it will be that of a team fighting to stay under 100 losses. Dubious records are in view, for this version of the Reds.

The Cincinnati Reds completed the single worst start to a season in franchise history, as April came to a close. Jeff and Steve tell you why no aspect of this team deserves a passing grade. The Reds pitching has been putrid, the hitting has been horrible, the fielding has been futile, and the base-running just flat out bad. Things are so bad that Jeff Hoffman leads the Reds in WAR, per Baseball-Reference.The Reds struggles at the plate are very concerning given they have the fourth-oldest average age of starting position players. All in all, it adds up to drastic change needing to happen in the form of Nick Krall being relieved of his duties and Joey Votto being traded to a contender.

The Cincinnati Reds allowed 24 runs and scored just eight against the Colorado Rockies en route to three-straight losses. Jeff and Steve are joined by Paul Holden, from Locked On Rockies, to break down the breakdown by the Reds and look at the awesomeness of the Rockies. They talk about why Joey Votto should be traded, why the Kyle Freehand extension is looking good for Colorado, and why the acquisition of Kris Bryant in the offseason signals very good things for Rockies fans. They also talk about the underestimation of every team in the league, when it comes to CJ Cron, and why the Rockies are reaping the benefits of that underestimation. They then look at the Reds and one thing that could fix the worst team in baseball, right now.
