Castellanos was scratched because he’s sick. Moustakas left camp to be with his wife, who is about to give birth #reds

[Rojo Rijo]

Would love to see Beltre get some ABs today

[Tom Servo]

Castellanos was scratched because he’s sick.
Coronavirus...do the Reds get their money back if he doesn’t make it??

[Ron Madden]

Disco sits'em down in order to start the game

[NebraskaRed]

Winker gets hit on the wrist in his first spring training game.

Then he comes back almost a week later and swings at the first pitch for an out.

He hit it hard right at the CFer according to Cowboy

It would have been awesome if he got a hit on that first pitch, I just thought it was funny.

[Ron Madden]

Another 1-2-3 inning for Disco

JVM single.

I've been over at the complex today and now the game. Watched Garcia most of the day. Very impressive tools and seems to work hard. Ball definitely jumps off his bat.

[adkindo]

at least we know that it is possible for us to get a hit off Fiers

[Ron Madden]

Josh Smith now pitching for the Reds

[goreds2]

Hope Disco pitches as well as Gray and Bauer have.

Line drive single for DaWink!

[NebraskaRed]

Winker swings at the first pitch again and singles.

All signs are pointing that way.

Joey walks again

[Ron Madden]

Ervin double! 3-0 Reds

[adkindo]

thought that was gone by the call....guess just a RBI double by Ervin

[adkindo]

is it weird that I find myself counting how many batters we are away from Garcia? :)

[Ron Madden]

Bases Loaded for Garcia!

[Ron Madden]

Sac fly 4-0 Reds

[adkindo]

ok, ok, did some damage

[NebraskaRed]

@johnfayman

I don't see Garcia making the team out of spring training. But I think he'll be up pretty quickly if he puts up the kind of numbers at AA that he did in high A. #reds

[adkindo]

Reds showing some offense to finish the week!

[Ron Madden]

Payton single scores a run 5-0 Reds

[adkindo]

even if he don't, there is something very exciting knowing there are impact players that will likely come up soon....hopefully several of our top prospects bounce back to have good seasons this year.

[Ron Madden]

Jankowski base hit drives in another run

[adkindo]

what is the reason 1/2 of spring training games are not on TV...it just seems like in 2020 they just would be. My guess is Fox Sports Ohio or whoever would get better ratings from a Reds spring training game than anything else they could air.

[NebraskaRed]

Reds lead 7-0 going into the 4th

It's been WAY worse in previous years where there seemed to be only 1-2 games on TV all spring.

Alex "Austin" Powers pitching for the Reds now

[Ron Madden]

For years we never had televised ST games..

[NebraskaRed]

At least MLB TV seems to have improved their radio feed issue.

[Ron Madden]

I wonder if it has anything to do with the game being broadcast on wlw as opposed to wsai? Don't know if it would make any difference.

[Ron Madden]

Joey walks again!

[NebraskaRed]

3rd walk today for Votto. What's his record? 5 in one game?

[HammerTime]

What a nice surprise that would be. Not going to get too hopeful at this point. Long way to go.

[Ron Madden]

I'm not real sure

Long season. May not want to wear the Radio/TV announcers out before it starts.
