The Mets have placed outfielder Luis Robert Jr. on outright waivers, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. The league’s other 29 teams have 48 hours to claim Robert, who is eligible to continue playing for the Mets during the process. The Reds took the same tack earlier this week with third baseman Eugenio Suárez and outfielder […]
The Cubs celebrated 150 years since becoming a National League franchise before Sunday’s game, with many of the team’s icons present. Then the current Cubs put on an offensive show, with its newest potential franchise player, Pete Crow-Armstrong, solidifying his claim on this year’s National League MVP award.

Pete Crow-Armstrong is a man possessed this season. He played a huge part in leading the Chicago Cubs to a 17-5 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday after hitting three home runs in the contest. That just so happens to be the first three-home-run game in the 24-year-old’s MLB career. His third dinger of […] The post Cubs’ Pete Crow-Armstrong records 1st 3 home run game in epic fashion vs. Reds appeared first on ClutchPoints .

The Cincinnati Reds’ decision to put Eugenio Suárez and TJ Friedl on waivers was supposed to be confidential until a decision was made. However, just as MLB insider Ken Rosenthal reported on the Reds’ plan, it has surely put both the Reds’ front office and the players in an uncomfortable position. No wonder the Reds’ […] The post “Shame on Them”: Reds Manager Left Frustrated After ‘Confidential’ Information on 35YO Pro Gets Leaked appeared first on EssentiallySports .
The Chicago Cubs have been one of the streakiest teams in Major League Baseball this season. The Cubs have been riding the power bats of Pete Crow-Armstrong and Seiya Suzuki to make noise in the National League and attempt to challenge the Milwaukee Brewers for National League Central superiority. However, the Cubs have dropped three […] The post Why the Cubs are in serious trouble in NL Central after losing to Reds on Friday appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Throughout this season I have praised Cubs manager Craig Counsell for handling a bullpen devastated by injuries extremely well. He’s rested guys at the right time and used pitchers successfully who ordinarily would not have had any chance of being in the major leagues but were there of necessity due to injury. In Friday’s 10-8 […]
The Cincinnati Reds have shown flashes of promise throughout the 2020s, but in the midst of what is trending to be a last-place campaign, it has become painfully obvious that this organization is far from solving the root of its problem. Although the front office has identified a few franchise pillars, it has mismanaged and […] The post Reds lose Ke’Bryan Hayes to injured list during Cubs series appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Over the past decade, the Cincinnati Reds have done roughly as little as a baseball team can do in a very distinctive way. It has been effective only at producing memorable outlier seasons in otherwise unremarkable careers. The generic, create-a-player image of a Contemporary Reds Guy has become much easier to summon than a memory of a Reds team that played winning baseball. This almost certainly works better for people like me—people who will calm themselves, on a crowded train platform or in...
If you hold your nose and squint, you’ll find that Cincinnati Reds 3B Ke’Bryan Hayes has actually turned things around – a bit. Though he owns just a .463 OPS for the entirety of the 2026 season, that’s ticked up to a .588 OPS since the start of the month of August. Over his most […]
The Chicago Cubs have activated Matt Shaw ahead of their series with the Cincinnati Reds. Kevin Alcantara has been optioned to Triple-A. The post Cubs Activate Matt Shaw, Option Kevin Alcantara appeared first on On Tap Sports Net .
My Grandma Powell was a knitter. She’s still alive, but she’s too old now to knit. Before there were YouTube tutorials, or YouTube, or the internet, she taught herself how to do it. She spent years knitting sweaters, scarves, mittens, and toques (Canadian for "beanie") for herself, her husband, and her four children. By the time my cousins and I came along starting in the ’70s, she was extremely fast. My younger cousin and I got matching sweaters. We also got sweaters with matching leg warmers...
The Reds ended a three-game losing streak with a seven-run ninth against the Giants on Wednesday. Hopefully they left all of that in San Francisco. Also, the Reds have lost 13 of their last 20 so maybe this is a good time for the Cubs to face them. For more on the Reds, here’s Wick […]

The Cardinals' middling outfield defense could have found a savior in TJ Friedl, but St. Louis opted to pass on the Reds' outfielder who has forgotten how to hit.
You could make a fairly strong case that the period between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning was the worst 20-hour stretch in the history of the San Francisco Giants bullpen. On Wednesday afternoon, the bullpen took the mound for the ninth inning holding a 9-3 lead over the Cincinnati Reds, with the first series sweep […]
Despite a grand slam from Cincinnati Reds slugger Eugenio Suárez to give the team a 10-9 comeback win over the San Francisco Giants, having been down six runs at one point in the game, the team’s season overall has been a disappointing one. Even with the Reds putting the heroic Suarez on waivers shortly after, […] The post Why Reds have Kirk Herbstreit ‘so beyond pissed off’ appeared first on ClutchPoints .
So who believes in Reds Week ? The Reds, you fools. The Cincinnati Freaking Reds. And all the rest of you cynical apostates do too. If you didn't know it before, you damned well know it now. And not just for historical, electoral, or tonsorial reasons, either. We're talking the here and now, because Defector is in constant communion with the gods of sport, and we get results. Proof? Proof, you ask? Try this: The Cincinnati Reds, our adopted baseball team until closing time tomorrow, did som...
PHOENIX – The Arizona Diamondbacks may have a reunion opportunity worth exploring. Eugenio Suárez was recently waived by the Cincinnati Reds, opening the door for contenders to consider adding a veteran power hitter for the stretch run. For Arizona, bringing Suárez back to Chase Field would make considerably more sense than it might appear at […]
Despite the Cincinnati Reds’ struggles, Eugenio Suarez has been a bright spot, and after hit waivers, the Yankees have emerged as a potential landing spot for the veteran slugger. As speculation grows regarding Eugenio Suarez ‘s future after the Cincinnati Reds placed the veteran slugger on waivers, several contenders could target him for the stretch run. While the New York Yankees are often linked to available power bats, will the Bronx Bombers actually pull the trigger on Suarez? The ...
The Reds have placed designated hitter/third baseman Eugenio Suárez and outfielder TJ Friedl on waivers, reports Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. Neither player has been designated for assignment, and they’re both eligible to continue playing for Cincinnati while the 48-hour waiver process plays out. Both players made an appearance in Wednesday’s win over the Giants, with Suárez […]
The moribund Cincinnati Reds looked just that for most of their three-game series by the San Francisco Bay. They entered play on Wednesday afternoon having scored just a lone run through the first two games of the series, that coming late on Tuesday in the form of a solo Sal Stewart homer. Not even moving […]
Terry Francona opted to shuffle his lineup for Wednesday’s series finale against the San Francisco Giants, and the Cincinnati Reds will have a new leadoff hitter in rookie Hector Rodriguez. Each of Elly De La Cruz and Sal Stewart have been pushed down the batting order, for whatever reason, because apparently that’s going to jump […]
