Lindsay Crosby is joined by Seth Shaner of the Riverfront Reds Show to preview the Braves’ three-game series in Cincinnati. They discuss the Reds’ offense beyond Elly De La Cruz, including J.J. Bleday’s impact, Nathaniel Lowe’s role, Blake Dunn, and Spencer Steer, plus Matt McLain’s post-injury struggles and looming competition. They break down likely pitching matchups (Paddock, Singer, Lodolo vs. Holmes, Pérez, Strider), Reds rotation injuries, and a bullpen with shifting late-inning roles amid Emilio Pagán’s absence, including Pierce Johnson’s emergence. They close with series predictions and where to find Seth’s shows.
