The Cincinnati Reds don't need a designated closer to be successful




Locked On Reds - Daily Podcast On The Cincinnati Reds show

Summary: The Cincinnati Reds bullpen has blown multiple games, recently, which makes everyone question David Bell's managing of the group. The answer is not defined roles, though, as Jeff and Steve point out, it is in having multiple trustworthy relief pitchers who can get the Reds out of jams at any point in the game. Tommy Pham may be causing a rift in the clubhouse with comments about pitching like the ones he made after Sunday's win, even if they may be true for Reds pitchers. The Reds head to Arizona to face the Diamondbacks for the final three games of their season series and expectations are hard to pinpoint as it looks like the Reds could win two out of three or lost two out of three very easily. *SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonreds Also follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter Call or text (513) 549-0159 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
