Reds have to be close to calling up Hunter Greene.
Dude throws straight gas. He's been clocked at 105, but typically is right around the 101 mark.

In 7 starts in AA Chattanooga, he's 5-0 with a 1.98 ERA
41 innings. 60 Ks. 14 walks.

I think he'll move to AAA in short order where they'll give him a couple starts. With continued success at that level, he'll move to the bigs.

He was the #2 overall selection in the 2017 MLB draft.
Like Ohtani, he can also hit. He won the Junior HR Derby during the 2016 MLB All Star Game, although I don't see him getting many ABs unless he's a starter.

In 10 starts, Jacob DeGrom has allowed 4 earned runs.
In those 10 games, he's 10 for 25 for a .400 average and 5 RBI.

He's driven in more runs than he's allowed.

Reds / Rockies about to start as well.
Gonna listen as I give the lawn a haircut.

Reds pitcher Tony Santillan (2016 draft pick) making his MLB debut today - taking the injured Sonny Gray's spot in the rotation. He's 24 years old.

I would also like to add that Thames, the hitting coach, needs to go first.
Better starting pitching would help your hitting as well. Guys change their approach when they are down 5 runs after 2 innings.
