Paul and C. Trent focus on recent Reds organizational news as Nick Krall was appointed Cincinnati's VP/GM of baseball operations. What does this move mean for the club (:30)? Was this a decision guided by finances? What does Krall's multiple titles mean? And for those unfamiliar with Cincinnati's newest front office czar, Krall details his foray into baseball and his rise through the sport's ranks to where he is today (7:00). C. Trent further expands on Krall's baseball upbringing, his communication style, the team's philosophy moving forward and more (12:00). Oh, and let's not forget the possible defining narrative in the Reds' off-season, what are the team's plans for Trevor Bauer (23:00)? Krall explains.

Hall of Fame second baseman and Reds legend, Joe Morgan, has passed away at 77-years-old. Paul and C. Trent react to Morgan's passing, the legacy he leaves behind and his contribution to Cincinnati's "Big Red Machine" and their championship runs (:30). Reds president of baseball operations Dick Williams made his position vacant after a decade-plus-long run as a member of the teams' front office. Why did Williams step down, and what factors played into his departure (14:00)? How will his tenure with Cincinnati be remembered? What decisions will be remembered most (22:00)? What's next for this club (25:30)? As unique of a season as 2020 has been, this off-season, including the time when players are non-tendered, might be even weirder (30:00). Plus, the venerable Dusty Baker and other playoff musings (37:15).

Baseball history was made in the first meeting of the Reds-Braves wild-card round. Said benchmarks were achieved in a drawn-out, forgetful fashion as the seventh-seeded Reds conceded a walk-off, the lone score of the game, in the bottom of the 13th inning to fall behind in the series. Paul and C. Trent tackle Cincinnati's missed opportunities, Trevor Bauer's brilliance, the bullpen hanging in through double-digit innings and the pen depth Atlanta bolsters. The guys also react to Joey Votto's postgame comments as well as preview game two.

Welcome the wild card preview edition of WARP! There certainly was a chance that wouldn't be typed, or said, for that matter, but here we are. Paul and C. Trent detail Cincinnati's leadup to their first postseason berth in seven years, including their determined sweep over Pittsburgh, gutsy series wins over three postseason contenders and the "fu***** nightmare" mentality that guided them through it all (2:30). The Reds' opening round matchup against Atlanta pits strength against strength: Cincinnati's stellar starting pitching versus the Braves' boomstick bats (6:45). Will one side hold an advantage over the other? Is Trevor Bauer's Cy Young chances contingent on his playoff performance, and has rediscovering his slider been the difference maker for Luis Castillo? The Reds and Braves' playoff track record has fallen short of expectations in recent years (14:45). Who stands out as this year's playoff's x-factor (22:15)? Was this Cincinnati's best-case scenario (29:30)? Plus, Cobb County dabster, Trent, takes the stage (34:00).

Can you hear that? It's Europe playing in the background..."IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWNNNN!" Two, I repeat, two series remain before the postseason begins and, well, as Paul and Mo Egger spectacularly point out, its significance still looms large as the Reds have yet to secure a spot, though they are riding on increased serotonin after winning six of their last seven (1:00). Surfing on a winning-streak with their starting rotation hurling, is there any excuse not to make the playoffs? Sure, earning a postseason berth is top priority, but after that, what playoff seeding would benefit the team the most (14:45)? Look, when we're wrong we're wrong, so, please accept this apology, Michael Lorenzen (21:30). The guys wrap up today's show discussing the Brewers parity (29:45); Bauer's future remains murky (34:30) and a Reds nightmare scenario (42:15).Follow Paul on Twitter: @pauldehnerjrFollow Mo on Twitter: @MoEgger1530

Cincinnati is down to its last 13 games (try to avoid thinking of that number as unlucky), and it's time for one last push. Paul and C. Trent prognosticate whether the Reds can make the playoffs, and explain what efforts Cincy needs to make in order to be on of the NL's top-8 teams (:30). Could David Bell and co. modify Trevor Bauer's pitching schedule ahead of the stretch drive (4:45)? Also, where does the 29-year-old sit among NL Cy Young candidates (8:15)? Is there such a thing as too much pressure? The guys react to Joey Votto and Kyle Farmer's comments about the club's remaining games and the 2020 season as a whole (13:00).Follow Paul on Twitter: @pauldehnerjrFollow C.

After an inexcusable series split with Pittsburgh, more questions than answers present themselves. Paul and C. Trent broach these questions, starting with what happened in PNC Park, and what's Archie Bradley's role (2:00)? Is David Bell solely responsible for Cincy's underachieving ways? Is it about time fans cut him a break (7:45)? Are the Reds' flaws directly correlated with their shortcomings in the player development department (18:15)? Plus, Cincinnati's inordinate reliance on the long ball continues (23:15).Follow Paul on Twitter: @pauldehnerjrFollow C. Trent on Twitter: @ctrent

In a flurry of moves made before the evening on the last day of August, the Reds orchestrated a pair of trades. Paul and C. Trent analyze those transactions, but, before then, the duo share an abridged account of Cincinnati's most recent roster moves (6:15), including: José García's promotion. How does Archie Bradley figure to fit in Cincy's pen (13:15)? Will the addition of Brian Goodwin affect Nick Senzel's big league opportunities (20:15)? Though it's a small sample size, Joey Votto is hitting the ball well after being benched (26:15). Despite the early success, did David Bell make the right choice? What were Votto's sentiments on the decision?Follow Paul on Twitter: @pauldehnerjrFollow C. Trent on Twitter: @ctrent

Paul and C. Trent attempt to suss out the culprit behind the Reds' algid bats after dropping three straight match ups (1:15). Is bad luck to blame for the cold spell, or can it be traced back a home run quirk (5:15)? "Seller" labels are being thrown Cincinnati's direction as they remain below-.500 and inching towards the trade deadline, but are we certain about this (10:15)? Could this team transform into a buyer? And if so, who could be traded (12:00)? Why isn't Aristides Aquino on the active roster (13:30)? Joey Votto offensive shortcomings continue, but is he actively working on his approach (17:45)? How can David Bell help Votto rekindle his hitting ability, and when does urgency take over (26:00)?Follow Paul on Twitter: @pauldehnerjrFollow C. Trent on Twitter: @ctrent

Reds starters lead the majors in ERA and xFIP, and rank third in WHIP. The bullpen, however, is 29th in ERA and 25th in WHIP. Paul Dehner Jr. and C. Trent Rosecrans address that dichotomy on this episode of WARP in Cincinnati. Who can David Bell trust in the bullpen? Are the starters in danger of being overused? And, another note, could there be fans at Great American Ballpark at some point this year?
