Chad Dotson and Jason Linden are back again for another scintillating episode of Redleg Nation Radio. The guys keep trying to be optimistic, but the Reds continue to beat them down. After losing 12 of 13, Chad and Jason talk about the dumpster fire that is the Reds starting rotation, and analyze whether there is any hope for a turnaround in the near future. On a more positive note, they discuss a Reds offense that, somehow, caused Jason to compare the 2017 Reds to the Big Red Machine. Believe it or not! Music for this episode provided by Freekbass.
