Max Scherzer Gets A Win To Finish The Season

Reds 1 Blue Jays 5 If I were Max Scherzer, that’s how I’d want to end my career. He threw seven innings, allowed six hits, one earned run, one walk, and seven strikeouts (which would finish him with 3,557 strikeouts, three fewer than Justin Verlander). Max threw 114 pitches. That’s just amazing, especially on short […]

Blue Jays’ Max Scherzer dominates with seven strikeouts in possible final start

Max Scherzer was in vintage form in what could be his final major league start. The future Hall of Famer allowed one run while striking out seven Cincinnati Reds batters and walking one as he pitched into the eighth inning on Sunday afternoon. Scherzer, 42, has said he will make a decision about his future later in the off-season. If this is the end, he would step away from the game as one of the most dominant pitchers in the history of baseball. Scherzer has two World Series championships, th...

Cincinnati Reds clinch last place finish in NL Central

There were no fireworks, no on-field celebrations. There were not cases of Miller High Life, warmed and shaken, waiting for them in the locker room with snorkels and goggles. Saturday afternoon’s loss to the Toronto Blue Jays was the 86th such result for the Cincinnati Reds during this miserable 2026 season, and this was no […]

Reds @ Jays Game Thread

I’m going to put the thread up early, we are going to a feed the hungry thing and I’m not sure we’ll be back before the first pitch, because we’ll likely be hungry for lunch after. But I’ll look for a place that will have the game on. I am liking the SB Nation app […]

Another Loss

Reds 5 Jays 1 I knew this was going to be late, but not this late. Sorry, life has a way of getting in the way of what you have to do. At least they don’t have many more losses ahead now. It was another one of those days where the offense didn’t bother to […]

Blue Jays can’t solve Lowder in loss to Reds

Hector Rodriguez had a two-run triple in the fifth inning as the Cincinnati Reds topped the Toronto Blue Jays 5-1 on Saturday. JJ Bleday had a solo home run in the second inning for an early Cincinnati (75-86) lead. Sal Stewart’s fielder’s choice scored a run in the third and Eugenio Suarez smashed an RBI double in the next at-bat. Rhett Lowder (7-12) pitched six scoreless innings, allowing three hits and two walks, striking out two. Connor Phillips, Graham Ashcraft and Tejay Antone came out o...

Cubs Claim Julian Aguiar for Pitching Depth in Future

By Mark Polishuk | at September 26, 2026 1:38pm CDT The Cubs have claimed right-hander Julian Aguiar off waivers, according to the Reds. There hadn’t been any indication that Aguiar had been designated for assignment, but he’ll now look to continue his career with one of Cincinnati’s division rivals. A corresponding move will need to be made since Chicago has a full 40-man roster. Selected in the 12th round of the 2021 draft, Aguiar made his big league debut with the Reds in 2024 and posted a ...

Reds @ Jays Game Thread

Game 161. Are there any other sports that play 162 games in a season? Can you imagine if MLB played just 17 games a season? It would be a whole different spot. So, I had a night last night. Men’s Night Out, a charity thing for my wife’s church. I’m the least religious person you’ll […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. Toronto Blue Jays – Rhett Lowder vs. Trey Yesavage

Elly De La Cruz reached his 30-30 milestone during Friday night’s loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, meaning the Cincinnati Reds now have a pair of games left in their 2026 season with roughly nothing left to play for. That’s true for most of the roster, in all honesty. For Rhett Lowder, though, there’s at […]

Max Scherzer to pitch Blue Jays finale, undecided on retirement

Max Scherzer’s near future is sorted out; what’s further down the line remains up in the air. The Toronto Blue Jays will send Max Scherzer to the mound for the season finale against the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, but he’s yet to decide whether or not it’ll be his career finale, he told reporters Saturday. Scherzer, 42, told reporters he wanted one last shot to toe the mound with his family in attendance for the game against the Reds Sunday. It’s been a storied career for the future Hall of Fam...

Max Scherzer Undecided About Pitching Beyond 2026

Max Scherzer will start the Blue Jays’ season finale on Sunday, and told reporters (including Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi) that he’ll wait until the offseason before deciding on his longer-term future.  Perhaps reflecting Scherzer’s uncertainty, the future Hall-of-Famer noted that his family will be in attendance tomorrow, just in case the game with the Reds ends […]

Elly De La Cruz puts the Cincinnati Reds in the record book again

When the 2026 Major League Baseball season began there had only been eight seasons in history where a shortstop had hit 30 home runs and stolen 30 bases in the same season. It had never happened in baseball until 1996 when Barry Larkin accomplished the feat for the Cincinnati Reds. Two players have gotten there twice and both were very recently. Bobby Witt Jr. got there in 2023 and 2024, while Francisco Lindor did so in 2023 and 2025. This season two more shortstops joined the group as CJ Abra...

Reds bullpen blows the lead, loses 6-5 in Toronto

The Cincinnati Reds led 5-2 heading into the bottom of the 7th inning, but things went south after that as the Blue Jays rallied for four runs to take the league and Toronto didn’t look back as they held on for a win to start the final series of the year.

Elly De La Cruz joins exclusive club in Reds history

Cincinnati Reds superstar shortstop Elly De La Cruz joined rare company Friday, becoming just the fourth player in franchise history to hit 30 homers and steal 30 bases in the same season. De La Cruz secured his 30th steal during the third inning against the Toronto Blue Jays. After hitting a two-run double, he immediately […] The post Elly De La Cruz joins exclusive club in Reds history appeared first on ClutchPoints .

Jays Edge Reds 6-5

For most of the night, this looked like a typically frustrating 2026 Blue Jays loss. The starting pitching wasn’t very good, the bullpen did enough to keep them in range, and while the offence produce traffic on the bases it failed to turn that into runs. Luckily, things flipped late. The offence woke up and […]

Elly De La Cruz joins 30-30 club as Reds blow big lead late and lose

The Cincinnati Reds have their own Tungsten Arm O’Doyle. For those who didn’t let their brains rot on Twitter during the long, lonely COVID days, the fictionally dominant O’Doyle was a shooting star in 2021 as future Hall of Famers Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout languished on a Los Angeles Angels roster that was a […]
