The Cincinnati Reds have somehow already navigated their way through 20 games of Cactus League play so far this spring, and it honestly feels as if they’ve played 37 of those 20 games at home in Goodyear. Today, they’re in Goodyear again, too – this time playing host to the Texas Rangers. Cincinnati will send […]
The Dodgers didn’t have to worry about being in an another offensive onslaught in their second matchup of the spring against the Cincinnati Reds, as they struck early and kept their foot on the gas pedal in a 9-5 victory on Thursday.

The Pittsburgh Pirates traded for infielder/outfielder Tyler Callihan with National League Central division rivals, the Cincinnati Reds. In exchange for Callihan the Pirates sent pitcher Kyle Nicolas to the Reds. Callihan was the Red’s No.19 ranked prospect and could immediately become a depth piece for the Pirates in both the outfield and the infield. The […]
It was a wild one in Goodyear Ballpark on Thursday afternoon as ESPN broadcast a ridiculous 14-13 victory by the Cincinnati Reds over the Los Angeles Dodgers that featured a combined 10 (!) homers between the two clubs. Fortunately for the Reds, they came out victorious in this game that ultimately means nothing in the […]

The Reds made the postseason in 2025. Did you notice? They were dispatched quickly by the Dodgers. And, they had the worst record of any of the postseason teams at 83-79. Still, that’s something to build on, and the Reds are indeed building. Key departures: Zack Littell, Nick Martinez, Austin Hays, Brent Suter, Yosver Zululeta, […]

With 2022 Platinum Glove winner Jose Trevino traded to the Cincinnati Reds over the winter, the Yankees entered spring training with an opening behind the plate. Despite having a disadvantage in the position battle because he, like starter […]
As ridiculous question-themed title prompts go, this one might take the cake. It’s not without reference, however, as just last summer ESPN’s Jeff Passan referenced the legendary pixie dust of Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona as a means for the Reds to surge forward in the standings, something Tito did while up north in Cleveland […]
Nick Martinez was a starting pitcher for the 2025 Cincinnati Reds right up until he wasn’t. He’d start on Tuesday. He’d then start on Friday. Then, he’d take two weeks off and be a reliever every other day, sometimes for two, three innings at a time. Martinez, who finalized a one-year deal with the Tampa […]
The Dodgers made a flurry of waiver claims over the past week, first by reclaiming outfielder Michael Siani from the New York Yankees while designating recent signee Andy Ibañez for assignment. The Dodgers then brought back catcher Ben Rortvedt off waivers from the Cincinnati Reds, and in doing so, they made the tough decision to […]
Current Cincinnati Reds hitting coach Chris Valaika hit a mediocre .235/.271/.344 for the 2009 Louisville Bats, doing so while primarily playing shortstop. He was flanked on that roster by the likes of Norris Hopper, Danny Dorn, Corky Miller, and Drew Stubbs, with young bucks like Todd Frazier and even Jay Bruce sprinkling in some of […]
