The Cincinnati Reds and the Cleveland Guardians Split the Ohio Cup

The Cincinnati Reds won both games in Cleveland against the Guardians after having lost the first two of the series at Great American Ballpark in April. Jeff is joined by Jeff Ellis to talk about Fran Robinson Memorial Ohio Cup MVP Tyler Naquin and how the Guardians lineup was shut down by the Reds pitching staff (and dead baseballs?). Why the Guardians bullpen was a surprising disappointment and why Conner Overton continues to surprise Reds fans, and non-Reds fans, alike. The Guardians have a lot of young talent to surround Jose Ramirez and could be an interesting contender or pretender story in this year's AL playoff picture. Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Reds are just developing and trying to build a team to contend for the NL playoffs in a few years.
