There’s a report out there that the Cincinnati Reds have ‘checked in’ on free agent starting pitcher Nick Pivetta already this offseason, something that may dovetail with their reported interest in former Chicago White Sox starter Garrett Crochet after he was dealt to the Boston Red Sox, not the Reds.
Joel Sherman of the New York Post relayed the news.
