The Cincinnati Reds traded away much of their star power and made few free agent signing or trades to bring in talent to replace what has been given away. Jeff and Steve discuss the latest injury news surrounding Luis Castillo and why it now exposes the shallowness of this roster. They look at what the starting rotation should look like in Castillo's absence and what it will most likely end up being under a Cincinnati Reds leadership regime that values money over wins. They also talk about the fragility of the infield and outfield as Mike Moustakas and Donovan Solano had to be removed from the game early due to injury precautions (both are reportedly fine). They then look at how the bullpen shapes up without Lucas Sims, to start.
