Finding the bright spots as the Cincinnati Reds continue to struggle

Update: 2017-07-05

Description

Despite the team continuing to struggle, there were bright spots this week in the starting rotation.

Homer Bailey showed he’s not done yet and Luis Castillo continues to impress early in his big-league career.

Will the Reds stand pat at the trading deadline or will they deal their tradeable assets with another eye towards the future? And will they ink Hunter Greene to a deal before the clock strikes midnight on the deadline?

All this and more in this week’s episode of the Fifth Mascot with Kyser and Fay.
