The Cincinnati Reds have already been bitten by the injury bug and Jose Barrero looks to be out for the first month. Jeff and Steve discuss what effect this will have on Barrero's title of shortstop of the future. They also look at which Cincinnati Reds receiver is the next man up as Lucas Sims will see the start of his season delayed. They then introduce a new segment: Three Up, Three Down, as they look at why Aramis Garcia has taken the top spot in the battle for second catcher, how good Nick Senzel has looked, as well as Nick Lodolo, and why the other second catcher candidates and outfielders aren't quite performing up to par.
