Reds owner leaves Nick Krall nowhere to hide after latest comments

Reds owner Phil Castellini met with media Thursday alongside team president Nick Krall and general manager Brad Meador, stating he was fully behind the front office and that baseball decisions should be made by baseball people. This statement follows recent reporting that revealed Castellini had frequently vetoed trades proposed by Krall over the years, raising questions about Krall's actual authority. Krall announced several changes including the departure of pitching coach Derek Johnson and assistant hitting coach Will Remillard, while pledging to improve the team's approach to signing mid-tier free agents. The Reds finished 75-79 last season and will need significant improvements to become playoff contenders.
