A closer look at the Cincinnati Reds roster now that Elly De La Cruz is back

The Cincinnati Reds formally activated Elly De La Cruz from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday morning ahead of the team’s second game against the Milwaukee Brewers of this series. In doing so, the Reds add back their perennial All Star and offensive anchor, hopefully helping hoist a lineup back into respecability after it has […]

Elly De La Cruz to be activated, Hunter Greene to start at AAA Tuesday

The Cincinnati Reds are itching ever-closer to getting the band back together. Considering it’s their lead singer and lead guitarist that are the pieces they’ve been missing, that’s pretty huge. MLB.com’s Mark Sheldon reported earlier on Monday night that the Reds plan to activate shortstop Elly De La Cruz on Tuesday following a rehab stint […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. Milwaukee Brewers – Brady Singer vs. Brandon Woodruff

The Cincinnati Reds are back in Great American Ball Park on Monday night to play host to the Milwaukee Brewers. Their division rivals are once again in 1st place in the NL Central, with the Reds occupying their familiar place of last. Brady Singer and Brandon Woodruff get the starting assignments for their respective clubs […]

Cincinnati Reds need Brady Singer now more than ever

There’s certainly a chance that the Cincinnati Reds will get absolutely smashed over the course of the next two weeks and their season – which already has seen them collapse from 1st place to last place in the NL Central – will go completely up in flames. They’re about to embark upon the toughest stretch […]

Reds shake up bullpen with return of Pierce Johnson

The Cincinnati Reds finally welcomed back some proven reinforcement to their overworked bullpen on Monday afternoon ahead of their series against the Milwaukee Brewers in Great American Ball Park. Veteran righty Pierce Johnson was activated off the 15-day IL, while the Reds also chose to select the contract of righty Julian Garcia from AAA Louisville. […]

Introducing the real Cincinnati Reds

The Cincinnati Reds leaned on Chase Burns again on Sunday, riding their star rookie to a series victory over the New York Yankees in the Bronx. The win pulled the Reds back within 2 games of the .500 mark for the season as we near its midpoint, and again helped bridge the gap between what […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. New York Yankees – Chase Burns vs. Elmer Rodriguez

Did the Cincinnati Reds catch a break when the New York Yankees opted to shuffle their starting rotation for the series finale? We’ll find out this afternoon! The Reds were initially slated to face six-time All Star and former Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole in Sunday’s series finale, but manager Aaron Boone made the […]

Sal Stewart’s 6 RBI day fuels Reds in 10-2 rout of Yankees

Cincinnati Reds rookie Sal Stewart has certainly slumped since his breakout month of April, but that hasn’t stopped him from stepping into big situations and picking up timely hits for the club. Manager Terry Francona has stuck with him in the heart of the order despite his recent slide, and Tito was rewarded in spades […]

The Reds will try to not lose to the Yankees again today

Friday evening’s debacle in the Bronx would have, in a just world, been the kind of thing that would have pissed off a wide swath of Cincinnati Reds fans. They gave up big hits early on bad pitches. They looked positively overmatched all up and down their lineup. They lost, they didn’t score, and looked […]

Reds blanked by Cam Schlittler gem in loss to New York Yankees

Cam Schlittler entered play on Friday with the fourth best bWAR among all pitchers in the sport prior to his scheduled start against the Cincinnati Reds in the series opener in Yankee Stadium. Safe to say, the burgeoning New York Yankees ace is going to find himself higher on that list come Saturday morning. Schlittler […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. New York Yankees – Rhett Lowder vs. Cam Schlittler

If you’re a believer in Baseball Reference, there have been only three pitchers in baseball this season who’ve been better than New York Yankees starter Cam Schlittler. One of them, by the slightest of margins (3.9 bWAR to 3.8), is Cincinnati Reds righty Chase Burns. So, if you’ve watched Chase Burns completely dominate opponents as […]

Elly De La Cruz, Hunter Greene inch closer to Reds returns

Elly De La Cruz and Hunter Greene combined to post 11.2 bWAR between them during the course of the 2024 Major League Baseball season for the Cincinnati Reds. Despite both battling injuries during the 2025 season, they combined to post 7.8 bWAR. There’s no denying that they are the two of the most talented players […]

Why not another year of Eugenio Suárez?!

This week’s MLB Reacts question may well feature a classic case of striking while the iron is hot. Maybe, just maybe, we’ll look back on it later as an example of being irrationally exuberant at precisely the wrong time. Either way, this week we got some pretty definitive results! On Tuesday, we laid out the […]

The Jekyll and Hyde nature of the Cincinnati Reds offense

The Cincinnati Reds are 73 games into their 162 game trek through the 2026 Major League Baseball season. They’re inching closer to being half-done with this latest experiment, and that’s a sample size large enough to begin to make some objective observations. Some of them stick out like a sore thumb, particularly on the offensive […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. New York Mets – Nick Lodolo vs. Nolan McLean

Matt McLain will start at shortstop for the Cincinnati Reds in Wednesday’s series finale against the New York Mets in Great American Ball Park. Nolan McLean will start on the mound for the Mets as they attempt to stave off the sweep attempt by the Reds. If McLain homers off McLean, I’m going to go […]

Reds bash Mets early in 5-3 win, take series

Sal Stewart turned around a meatball from Kodai Senga in the Bottom of the 1st inning, launching it 410 feet off the facade of the upper deck beyond the left field wall in Great American Ball Park on Tuesday night. Stewart, who was batting 3rd for the Cincinnati Reds on the night, did so after […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. New York Mets – Kodai Senga vs. Brady Singer

The Cincinnati Reds are fresh off a 12-0 thumping of the New York Mets in last night’s series opener. Eugenio Suárez had his first true breakout game of the season – certainly his first one since returning from an oblique injury that cost him a month – and for the first time the offense looked […]

Should the Reds try to keep Eugenio Suárez beyond this year?

Eugenio Suárez homers twice as Reds smash Mets 12-0

The Cincinnati Reds entered Monday night’s game against the New York Mets with the second worst run differential in all of Major League Baseball, second only to the woeful Colorado Rockies. Thanks to Eugenio Suárez, they improved that number by a boatload. Suárez socked a 2-run homer in the Bottom of the 1st inning to […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. New York Mets – Chase Burns vs. Tobias Myers

The Cincinnati Reds are back in action on Monday night in Great American Ball Park after dropping Sunday’s series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks. That loss canned the series for them, and they’ve now dropped five straight series overall as their precipitous fall down the NL Central standings continues. They’ll look to get back on […]

This summer should include the next Cincinnati Reds sell-off

It’s going to be 97 degrees where I live on Wednesday. The dog days of summer are officially here. In the world of baseball, transaction season heats up with the weather. Such is the nature of establishing a trade deadline around the end of July – this season it’s on August 3rd – as teams […]

The Cincinnati Reds offense stinks again

There was a blissful time when the Cincinnati Reds remembered how to hit. Elly De La Cruz was healthy and flourishing, Sal Stewart looked the part of the team’s next cornerstone in the box, Nathaniel Lowe looked like the bargain of the offseason, Spencer Steer couldn’t not get on base, and JJ Bleday was a […]

Reds drop frustrating series finale to Diamondbacks

The Cincinnati Reds played the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday afternoon in Great American Ball Park in the rubber match of the series. By now, you’ll be able to recite how the game went. Cincinnati got an effective, albeit inefficient outing from their starting pitcher. Their offense was mostly inept, but gave just enough combined with […]
