Each Monday morning, we’ll ask a few of our authors and friends of the site to answer an important question concerning the Reds. The comments section is for your answers.
Question: “How worried should we be?”
Jordan Barhorst: We shouldn’t be worried…yet. There are troubling occurrences that have started to evolve into troubling patterns. The offense has been bad, and rightfully earned the headlines. But unless they’re historically bad (they aren’t), the bats will turn around. If I’m picking something to be worried about right now, it’s the bullpen. What seemed to be somewhat of a strength heading into the season has been anything but.
