Hunter Greene, Nick Lodolo, Graham Ashcraft, and the rest of the Cincinnati Reds pitching staff is putting in a lot of work our in Goodyear. Spring Training will be an important first evaluation for much of the hopeful pitchers on the Reds roster. There will be a lot of guys getting their first taste of an audition for the Reds in the first Cactus League Spring Training game on Saturday. Also, how do you adequately evaluate pitching? There is no one stat, but there is a better stat than ERA and that is FIP. We will explain how to use FIP and xFIP when evaluating Reds pitching performances, as well as take your questions on the Reds pitching staff, on the latest LIVE Aloha Friday edition of the podcast!
