They aren't that bad, they truly need pitching, signing Milton was not very smart, but they truly tried. Randa was a tremendous signing, unfortunately, they traded him away.
But if you look at the second half, the team was coming on strong. I think this offseason get Lindner to open his wallet and grab some pitching and keep Dunn, Kearns and Casey and this team could be elite.
There's no doubt in my mind JR ain't going anywhere, he makes the REDS too much money, and the fan revolt would be too destructive and it would take years for ownership to rebuild any respect with the fans.
