The Cincinnati Reds badly need some pitching help. Despite their amazing first half and first place standing in the NL Central, the Reds starting pitching has been suspect. The Enquirer's Charlie Goldsmith joins the show to talk about the Reds plan heading into the trade deadline and why he sees them acquiring some pitching help, though not the expensive players you might think. Who is the next Reds player to get a contract extension? Will the Reds model their roster construction more like the Tampa Bay Rays or the Atlanta Braves? Why is it that pitching is the most surprising Reds thing for the first half? We answer all these and more on today's Locked On Reds.
