The Riverfront: A Cincinnati Reds Show

The first of the big prospects has arrived, as Matt McLain is now the starting shortstop for the Reds after destroying Triple-A pitching. And he's not the only Reds rookie to make an impact this week, as lefty Brandon Williamson also looked great in his big league debut. Is it possible that this team can actually compete in this division as the kids begin to arrive?

Chad and Nate wax poetic about Elly De La Cruz and his buddies Matt McLain and Christian Encarnacion-Strand, and DEMAND that the Reds bring these guys up to the big leagues! We also discussed the ups and downs of another interesting week as a Reds fan, with the club only 4.5 games out of first...and with the Cardinals in last place.

Plus, Chad gets a little emotional about fathers and sons and baseball...and replays his favorite interview in the history of the show.

Although the Reds had a meltdown 9th inning to snap their 5 game winning streak, it was still quite the week of games for the ball club.

What a wild week! The Reds are swept at Pittsburgh, then return home to win three in a row against Texas, including two dramatic walkoff victories. Chad and Nate break everything down, including Cincinnati's attendance woes, some great performances on the farm by the club's top prospects, and Hunter Greene's evolving pitch selection.

Also: Nick Senzel is back, baby!

Drew Stubbs was a first-round pick of the Cincinnati Reds who patrolled center field from 2009 to 2012, a really fun era of Reds baseball. Stubbs joined Tim Daniel this week on Late Night Reds Talk to discuss his big league career, his memories of the 2010 and 2012 seasons when the Reds won the NL Central, and what really went down during that memorable Brandon Phillips-induced fight with the Cardinals.

The results on the field have been predictably shabby, but this week may ultimately represent a watershed moment for the Cincinnati Reds as pitcher Hunter Greene signed a six-year contract extension. What does this mean for the never-ending rebuild? Have the Reds turned the corner? Which one of the young players will sign next, if any? What moves should the Reds take next?

Chad and Nate take a stab at answering those questions and many more in this week's episode!
