It's a surprise edition of the podcast! Doug Gray joined Chad Dotson to analyze Cincinnati's first two picks in the 2019 draft, pitcher Nick Lodolo and SS Rece Hinds.

The Cincinnati Reds have finally called up Nick Senzel, much to the delight of Chad Dotson and Jason Linden. Before we got excited over that, however, we discussed the continuing great performance of the Reds pitching staff, including NL Pitcher of the Month Luis Castillo.

Ep 257RNR #259: Season Preview Spectacular! (Nick Senzel Edition)

It's a special Opening Week edition of the podcast, the first of two episodes we're bringing to you this week to celebrate the return of Reds baseball. Today, Chad Dotson and Jason Linden discuss the (near-) finalization of Cincinnati's Opening Day roster, with a healthy dose of analysis of the (a) absence of top prospect Nick Senzel on the big league roster, and (b) the news of Senzel's ankle injury in a minor league game. We also discussed our expectations for the 2019 season, and whether our enthusiasm has been dampened by the revelation that the Reds have money considerations that take precedence over winning as many games as possible this year.
