SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – After the Reds scored the fourth-fewest runs in the National League this season, it’s clear the Reds are prioritizing offensive upgrades during the offseason. But as much as their pitching improved, it remains a focus.

The Reds figure to have one of the top starting rotations in the league with Sonny Gray, Luis Castillo, Trevor Bauer and Anthony DeSclafani. As a team, the Reds ranked fourth in the NL with a 4.18 ERA this year and led the league in strikeouts (1,552).
