The Cincinnati Reds need Lucas Sims to bounce back and he is working toward that. Lucas joins the podcast today to talk about his return to the mound for the Reds. Sims gives us an inside look at the Reds locker room and what David Bell is doing to get the team ready for a better 2023 season. Lucas also looks at MLB new rules and how he can take advantage of them on the mound. Also, what would Lucas say to Reds skeptics out there? Sims gies us his answer. There were also some encouraging signs from the Reds fourth Cactus League win in a row, this one over the San Diego Padres. The young bats continue to show out as Spencer Steer, Matt McLain, and Christian Encarnacion-Strand all had hits. Jonathan India and Wil Myers also showed why the Reds lineup could be more formidable than people give it credit for.
