Nick Kirby and Craig Sandlin break down the Cincinnati Reds’ key offseason decisions as the team retains rights to Spencer Steer, Gavin Lux, Will Benson, Graham Ashcraft, TJ Friedl, Nick Lodolo, Matt McLain, Brady Singer, Tyler Stephenson, Tony Santillan, and Brandon Williamson. They dive into what each player’s arbitration case could mean for the Reds’ payroll and roster strategy.

Nick also provides historical context on the Reds’ recent arbitration battles and how the front office has handled similar situations in the past.

The guys discuss Cincinnati re-signing Carson Spiers to a minor league deal, avoiding arbitration early with Sam Moll, the decision to non-tender Rodddery Muñoz and Will Banfield, and what these moves signal for the Reds moving forward.

A full, detailed look at the Reds’ arbitration outlook and early offseason roster moves.
