I think that indicates they need a bat, but I also think they could use an arm, considering their team ERA is 4.49.There is only so much help out there, though.Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Rhett Lowder pitches against the Detroit Tigers in the first inning at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnat...
