The Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates make for dramatic if, albeit, fundamentally horrid baseball. Jeff is joined by Ethan Smith as they look at the good performances by Jake Fraley for the Reds and Kevin Newman for the Pirates, the rough performances by both bullpens, and why neither team saw the other's best pitcher. The future of both of these teams is bright with lots of talent like ONeill Cruz, Elly De La Cruz, Roansy Contreras, Hunter Greene, Quinn Priester, and Nick Lodolo. How does the rest of 2022 look for the Reds and the Pirates?
