Tyler Stephenson's recent back issues have sparked a lot of concern among Reds fans, and rightfully so. As the starting catcher, his presence in the lineup is crucial, especially after a season where he hit 19 home runs and set a career high. The potential drop-off to Jose Trevino, who has a career OPS of just .637, raises some serious questions about the team's depth and offensive capabilities.

What do you think the Reds should do if Stephenson's MRI reveals a significant injury? Should they look to make a trade for a more reliable catcher, or is it time to give younger players like Austin Wynns or Will Banfield a chance, despite their limited track records?

Moreover, how do you feel about the overall depth of the Reds' roster? With injuries piling up, can they afford to lose a key player like Stephenson? What bold predictions do you have for the Reds' season if they have to navigate a significant injury to their starting catcher?

Let’s discuss the implications of this situation and how it could shape the Reds' season moving forward. What are your thoughts?
