Cincinnati Reds weigh risk and reward as Adolis Garcia emerges as a sought-after free agent. Can the powerful former Ranger transform the Reds’ lineup, or is his recent decline at the plate a red flag? Steve and Jeff debate outfield options, the potential price tag, and whether Garcia’s home-run threat justifies a one-year deal. The duo compare Garcia to Ryan O’Hearn and discuss the Reds’ need for lineup protection behind Elly De La Cruz as the offseason heats up. Projections cast doubt on Noelvi Marte’s breakout hopes, but should Reds fans be skeptical? The hosts dissect Marte’s suppressed forecasts, the team’s medical strategy, and bullpen changes, including Connor Phillips’ candidacy for closer amid incoming ABS strike zone technology. With Tony Santillan and Graham Ashcraft also in the mix, strategy battles loom ahead of CBA negotiations. Is Cincinnati’s plan to build from within enough to contend in a shifting NL Central? Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/podcasts/locked-on-reds/ https://www.youtube.com/@LockedOnReds?sub_confirmation=1 Locked On MLB League-Wide: Every Team, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnMLB BOOKMARK Sports Illustrated’s Cincinnati Reds site, Inside the Reds!https://www.si.com/mlb/reds/ Also follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter JOIN THE DISCORD SERVER: https://discord.gg/STMcRDyMCt For your next listen, check out the Locked On MLB podcast.
