Grain and hogs markets end mixed Wednesday with cattle higher.  Mike Minor, Professional Ag Marketing, says the markets shook off tariff talk and saw positioning end of month and before first notice day Friday.  Soybeans saw slight gains on a lower dollar and with talk of China business on top of the flash export sale announced. Wheat saw pressure on technical selling and chances for rain in parts of Russia.  Corn was caught in the tug of war between the two.  Cattle futures gained with higher cash and feeders scored more new highs for the move. Hogs made new contract highs and then consolidated.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Grains found a bounce on Friday with soybeans and soybean oil leading the way to the upside. Meantime, feeder cattle saw a nice surge with hogs under pressure to end the week.

Grain and livestock ended mixed Wednesday.  Mike Minor with Professional Ag Marketing says soybeans saw a nice short covering bounce on the heels of a rally in soybean oil and more flash export sales to China and unknown.  However, corn could not follow soybeans or the higher wheat market, despite more export business due to harvest pressure and technical selling after failing to take out chart resistance.  Cattle futures saw follow through technical selling after bearish reversals on Tuesday and with lower boxed beef values.  Minor says the key will be what the cash does as the end of the week.  Lean hog futures hit more contract highs on fund buying but Minor says strong demand as seen in the higher cutout value has also been supportive.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Grains end lower Thursday with livestock to the plus side.  Mike Minor, Professional Ag Marketing, says corn and soybean markets saw some early harvest pressure plus some rain chances in Brazil in early October also played a role.  Wheat fell with better rain chances in the Central and Southern Plains.  However, all the grain markets have technically run into chart resistance.  Cattle and hogs and the stock market all rallied together in a delayed reaction to the Fed cutting interest rates for the first time in four years. Minor says that is positive for demand for meat and all commodities. He says the change in monetary policy may also bring some managed money back into the grains.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Braves play a clunker to close out the Phillies series. Ian Anderson wasn't good. Michael Harris II is unreal. Now, it's time for the Reds in Cincinnati. Max Fried on the mound and RONALD IS BACK!

The Cincinnati Reds problems from a few months ago showed up against the Milwaukee Brewers this past weekend. Jeff is joined by Dominic Cotroneo, Locked On Brewers, for a crossover post-mortem of the series. Willy Adames, Hunter Renfroe, and company outplayed Joey Votto, Jonathan India and the Reds. Tyler Stephenson would have been nice to have available. The Reds showed why, in a couple of areas, that the Brewers are just better and miles ahead of where the Reds are. The pitching really doomed the Reds in this seres as Hunter Greene and Graham Ashcraft both looked like rookies and Mike Minor blew up after three nice innings. Also, the Brewers look like the eventual NL Central champs and the Reds have some opportunities the front office cannot pass up. *SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonreds Also follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter Call or text (513) 549-0159 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Cincinnati Reds problems from a few months ago showed up against the Milwaukee Brewers this past weekend. Jeff is joined by Dominic Cotroneo, Locked On Brewers, for a crossover post-mortem of the series. Willy Adames, Hunter Renfroe, and company outplayed Joey Votto, Jonathan India and the Reds. Tyler Stephenson would have been nice to have available. The Reds showed why, in a couple of areas, that the Brewers are just better and miles ahead of where the Reds are. The pitching really doomed the Reds in this seres as Hunter Greene and Graham Ashcraft both looked like rookies and Mike Minor blew up after three nice innings. Also, the Brewers look like the eventual NL Central champs and the Reds have some opportunities the front office cannot pass up.*SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonredsAlso follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter Call or text (513) 549-0159Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cincinnati Reds are not losing because of David Bell. As Pete Rose said "One things makes a good manager: good players." The Reds front office haded David Bell a rough roster to win games with and Jeff and Steve want you to know that the expectations should be different then what Reds ownership is trying to sell you. Even with that roster, though, sometimes Bell pulls the handle on the slot machine and comes up with a winner, just like last night. Mike Minor pitched well and earned at least another look as a starter while Brandon Drury continued to build a case for an All Star selection. Also, Jonathan India is BACK which means change is coming to the Reds roster including Alejo Lopez sent down and a diminished role for Matt Reynolds.*SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonredsAlso follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter Call or text (513) 549-0159Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Mike Minor pitched poorly and Joey Votto kept getting robbed by great defense as the Cincinnati Reds lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Jeff and Steve wonder if Minor may be better out of the bullpen for the Reds. The future of the Reds is very bright with players like Elly De La Cruz and Rece Hinds on the horizon. We look at who will be making the Reds a playoff contender in 2024, whether De La Cruz or Jose Barrero will be the everyday shortstop, and why Michael Siani over Jay Allen in centerfield. Also, has one of Albert Almora Jr., Brandon Drury, or Matt Reynolds played themselves onto the roster for another year? Why we Reds fans are just so excited about average players.*SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonredsAlso follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter Call or text (513) 549-0159Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Tyler Mahle got hit all around Great American Ballpark yesterday and the Cincinnati Reds lost big to the Chicago Cubs. Jeff and Steve dive into the early season struggles of Mahle and why it is eerily similar to the start of the season Luis Castillo turned in for the Reds last year. Mahle's bad start is only a small pat of the larger struggles of the starting pitching staff for the Reds that is worst in the Majors in many categories. Reds starting pitching has been the biggest reason why the Reds have such a bad record. Also, David Bell needs to do a better job of putting guys in spots to succeed, like Tyler Naquin. He mashes right-handed pitching but gets shut down by lefties. The Reds skipper has not done a good job of putting the roster that was poorly constructed in good positions to win ballgames. Hopefully guys like Castillo and Mike Minor coming back healthy can turn things around.*SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonredsAlso follow @jefffcarr and @soffenbaker on Twitter Call or text (513) 549-0159Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
