Never has a four-game streak felt so flat as one with the heavy cloud of Shohei Ohtani’s absence looming over the Dodgers, but those scary days seem to be over, and not a moment too soon. According to Dave Roberts, his star player is ready to return tonight against the Reds as the Dodgers get […]
Slugging Cincinnati Reds 3B Eugenio Suárez is known to be one of baseball’s most streaky hitters, one who jumps up to provide weeks at a time of prodigious power that can carry a single lineup. That’s why the Reds brought him back to their roster for 2026 on a $15 million deal, after all – […]
10:55am: Murphy told reporters today that Harrison will start Saturday against the Reds (h/t Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel). The Brewers will have long relievers ready to go behind him. 9:18am: Kyle Harrison didn’t make it out of the fourth inning of today’s 12-8 Brewers loss to the Reds, as Cincinnati’s lineup tallied nine […]
Sheehan gets another chance to prove himself.
The Los Angeles Dodgers naturally attract attention for all of their big-money moves, but their lower-key gambits have yielded championship success over the last two years. Acquiring a then-injured Tommy Edman in a three-team trade in 2024 and trusting both Miguel Rojas and Andy Pages in Game 7 of the 2025 World Series was incredibly […]

The Cincinnati Reds woke Monday with the knowledge that it’s at least possible to take down the Milwaukee Brewers in a three-game series. I am not sure the same could have been said when they woke up on Friday, even if they’d firmly believed it all along. Despite dropping Friday’s series opener 10-7 in a […]
Eugenio Suarez had a week to remember. The veteran slugger did not stop after achieving a major personal milestone, but went ahead with winning over fans without even swinging a bat. During Saturday’s rain delay at Great American Ball Park, Suarez’s heartwarming gesture earned the 35-year-old widespread praise. The matchup between the Cincinnati Reds and […]

Get ready to see a lot of Cincinnati Reds baseball over the next week and a half. Through their first 143 games of the season, the Dodgers have not played the Reds, but will play their longtime National League rivals seven times in the next 11 days. Up first is three games at Dodger Stadium, […]
LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani is out of the Dodgers lineup on Sunday for a fourth straight day, but has progressed enough that he could start again at designated hitter as early as Monday night against the Cincinnati Reds. But it’s becoming increasingly likely that Ohtani does not pitch again this season. Ohtani has dealt […]
Elly De La Cruz took the time to care for a fallen fowl during Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers, and he was later rewarded with some good karma.
Box Score For the third straight series, the Milwaukee Brewers failed to win the series finale. With the playoffs looming and a deep run expected by the fanbase and franchise alike, it doesn’t bode well for anyone’s confidence. To pour more salt into an already festering wound, the Brewers were looking to Kyle Harrison to […]
Murakami represents one of the trickiest negotiations in recent memory, while owners are eager to cash in as valuations continue to skyrocket.
Not including the four-game series with the Cubs, which they split, the Brewers will go for their sixth straight series victory this afternoon in Cincinnati. However, the Brewers have struggled to close out series over the last couple of weeks, losing the final game three times. To end the bad luck of not winning the […]
The Reds have designated left-handed reliever Sam Moll for assignment, the team announced. Moll’s roster spot will go to righty reliever Graham Ashcraft, who is returning from the 60-day injured list. This could be the end of Moll’s run in Cincinnati, which acquired him from the Athletics for righty Joe Boyle before the 2023 trade […]
Box Score What looked like a nice early game on a Saturday evening turned into a long night. Both teams went back and forth scoring, with a long rain delay splitting the game into two halves. Unfortunately, the rain dampened an early Brewers’ lead, and they could not recover as they lost 5-3. The game […]
After a back-and-forth game last night, the Brewers are back in action as they continue their push to the playoffs. They can cut the division magic number down to 12 with a win in tonight’s game. Dustin May is on the mound and looking for a bounce-back game. After two strong starts to begin his […]
The Milwaukee Brewers do not do very many things poorly. With 88 wins to their credit already in the 2026 regular season, they have logged 4 more wins than any other club in the sport, and they’ve done so with a precision-blend of talent evaluation and development. Quite frankly, they’re the model franchise for every […]
What. A. Game. The San Diego Padres edged out the New York Yankees in a pitcher’s duel on Friday night. It was a win the Friars desperately needed after dropping their series against the Cincinnati Reds earlier this week. Starters Walker Buehler and Max Fried went toe to toe, each allowing a run. Their respective […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are 88-54 following their 10-7 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night. Rookie starting pitcher Shane Drohan struggled with control, allowing six runs in just four innings of work. Fortunately, the bullpen was able to [mostly] keep Cincinnati in check the rest of the way while the offense clawed their way [...]
The Cubs will have to be content with a Wild Card berth, but we aren’t content at all. Billy Devore joins us to recap the Reds series and Eric Wielo joins us to recap the Brewers series as the Cubs have a losing week at home. Brought to you by Penguin Imprints, Fanarchy and our …

The Reds are expected to activate right-hander Graham Ashcraft off the 60-day injured list on Sunday, per Charlie Goldsmith of Charlie’s Chalkboard. Ashcraft has been out for over three months with a right forearm UCL sprain. The team’s 40-man roster is currently full, so a corresponding move will be needed to activate Ashcraft. Spencer Steer, […]
Box Score Great American Ballpark? A hot, late summer night? Runs. Following a 50-minute rain delay, neither Shane Drohan nor Rhett Lowder, the game’s starting pitchers, had it. Big numbers went on the scoreboard early, and by the end of the third inning we’d seen 10 runs and five lead changes. But Milwaukee struck a […]
Update: The broadcast says the game is now scheduled for a 6 p.m. CT first pitch. First things first: there’s rain in Cincinnati, so first pitch will not be at the scheduled 5:10 p.m. start time. It sounds like the rain should move out fairly quickly, though, so hopefully it’ll start by about 6 p.m. […]
