MLB Playoffs soldier on without the mighty Cincinnati Reds
It was almost exactly one year ago that the Cincinnati Reds embarked upon a fruitless foray into the MLB Playoffs for the first time (in a full season) in twelve years. They showed up in Los Angeles on September 30th, 2025 and promptly got shut out, their season ending for good a day later at […]
There’s a theme apparent in the latest disastrous Cincinnati Reds season
The Cincinnati Reds just wrapped up the 21st regular season since the above note was penned by the then-new ownership group. It was a five-point plan built on the back of nebulous subjectivity aside from the one concrete declaration emboldened at the top – We will bring championship baseball to Cincinnati. After 21 seasons, there […]
The Cincinnati Reds can lose no more in 2026
On the final day of the Major League Baseball regular season in 2026 the Cincinnati Reds got to play the heel for a future Hall of Famer, one who may well have thrown his last big league pitch against them. They even made him look like his old self even though that had rarely been […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Toronto Blue Jays – Brandon Williamson vs. Max Scherzer
Today marks the final game of the 2026 season for the Cincinnati Reds who, with 86 losses already on their ledger, have clinched a last place finish in the National League Central division and have once again missed the playoffs. Surprisingly, it’ll be the final game of the season for the Toronto Blue Jays, too. […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Toronto Blue Jays – Nick Lodolo vs. Jose Soriano
Both the Toronto Blue Jays and Cincinnati Reds entered the 2026 season with high hopes. Toronto was fresh off a 2025 campaign that saw them win 94 games and come damn close to taking down the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series, while the Reds managed to actually win more games […]
Elly De La Cruz swats 30th homer of brilliant 2026 season
Elly De La Cruz entered the final week of the 2026 regular season with a chance to join one of the most elite clubs in Major League Baseball history. Only 51 players have ever managed to homer at least 30 times and swipe at least 30 bags in a single season, and only a trio […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Atlanta Braves – Brady Singer vs. Tyler Mahle
The Cincinnati Reds got a surprise early run off Atlanta Braves ace Chris Sale to begin last night’s game at Truist Park, and lefty Andrew Abbott turned back the clock with a start worthy of his All Star status in 2025. Still, the Reds managed to lose said game in 10 innings after being successfully […]
The Cincinnati Reds are a broken franchise
The empirical data does enough heavy lifting for even the most casual observers to note just how bad the Cincinnati Reds are at the sport of baseball at the moment. They do rank dead last in their division, after all, and a glance at their ghastly -160 run differential this season just hammers that point […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Atlanta Braves – Andrew Abbott vs. Chris Sale
The Cincinnati Reds are back in action on Wednesday night in Altanta as a pair of southpaws will start at Truist Park. The Braves will roll out ace Chris Sale while Cincinnati turns to former All Star Andrew Abbott, with first pitch set for 7:15 PM ET. Here’s how both clubs will line up to […]
Elly De La Cruz on the cusp of statistical history as Reds take on Braves
Once hailed as ‘the most celebrated feat that can be achieved by a player who has both power and speed’ by Baseball Digest, a season featuring both 30 homers and 30 stolen bases earns one elite membership into the ‘30-30’ club. Only a trio of players in Cincinnati Reds history (and only 51 in total […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Atlanta Braves – Brandon Williamson vs. JR Ritchie
Brandon Williamson gets the start on Tuesday night in Atlanta as the Cincinnati Reds begin their penultimate series of the season against the Braves. JR Ritchie will start for Atlanta, and he’ll chuck out the game’s first pitch at 7:15 PM ET. The Braves have already clinched the NL East and have the slimmest of […]
Reds reliever Tony Santillan lands on IL with labral tear in hip
It has been a year of nightmares for the Cincinnati Reds pitching staff, but perhaps no one has dealt with more persistent crap all season than reliever Tony Santillan. After being simply dominant in his high-leverage relief role in 2025, he’s been limited to just 44 appearances during the 2026 season, the bulk of those […]
What’s on the line for the Cincinnati Reds in the season’s final week
The Cincinnati Reds head into the final week of their disastrous 2026 regular season at 72-84 overall. Technically, this club could still find a way to make it to 90 losses overall for the season, so at least there is that for them to play. On the schedule, there’s precious little there to chew on, […]
The Cincinnati Reds outfield in a post TJ Friedl world
The bad news in the world of the Cincinnati Reds this weekend was that TJ Friedl was mercifully designated for assignment. That’s good news if you focus solely on the ghastly production he put forward during the 2026 season, but it’s bad news in the sense that Friedl both provided years of yeomen’s work in […]
Reds place Chase Burns on IL, designate TJ Friedl for assignment
The Cincinnati Reds effectively called time for two of their more prominent players on Sunday afternoon prior to the series finale in Great American Ball Park against the Chicago Cubs. For one in particular, it’s more likely than not time called on his entire Reds career. Cincinnati placed star pitcher Chase Burns on the 15-day […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Chicago Cubs – Clay Holmes vs. Chase Burns
Chase Burns makes his final home start of the year on Friday night in Great American Ball Park as the Cincinnati Reds open a weekend series against their NL Central rivals from Chicago. While the Reds have made it mathematically certain that they a) can’t make the playoffs and b) can’t win more games in […]
Reds claim Oswaldo Cabrera from New York Yankees, promote Julian Aguiar
The Cincinnati Reds made a series of interesting roster moves on Friday prior to the final home series of the season at Great American Ball Park. Chief among them was claiming the versatile Oswaldo Cabrera off waivers from the New York Yankees, who had designated him for assignment earlier in the week. Now 27, Cabrera […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Los Angeles Dodgers – Brady Singer vs. Justin Wrobleski
The Cincinnati Reds will line up against yet another left-handed starter on Thursday as Justin Wrobleski gets the start for the Los Angeles Dodgers in the series finale between the two clubs. Brady Singer starts for the Reds and will chuck the game’s first pitch at an early 12:40 PM ET. Here’s how both clubs […]
How quickly the Cincinnati Reds starting pitching went south
You need not dig too deeply through the annals of Major League Baseball history to discover a time when the Cincinnati Reds sported one of the finest collections of starting pitching in the land. In fact, you need only turn back the clock to last year to find the Reds, with 15.6 collective fWAR, ranking […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Los Angeles Dodgers – Andrew Abbott vs. Blake Snell
Andrew Abbott looks to get back on track before the season ends as the Cincinnati Reds play host to two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell and the Los Angeles Dodgers once again. First pitch is set for 6:40 PM ET. Here’s how both clubs will line up to start: Today’s Lineups DODGERS REDS Tommy […]
Cincinnati’s unplanned takeover of the Baltimore Orioles dugout
It has been a week filled with an odd sort of pride for the player development wing of the Cincinnati Reds organization. Whether they felt their seats getting warm, or not, we do not know, but this week revealed the news that team isn’t planning a major overhaul of baseball operations this winter despite another […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Los Angeles Dodgers – Rhett Lowder vs. Yoshinobu Yamamoto
Elly De La Cruz is truly ascending into Tungsten Arm O’Doyle territory of late. Monday night saw him completely destroy a baseball, one that was conservatively estimated at 457 feet as it buzzed past the power stacks in left-center field in Great American Ball Park en route to exiting the stadium altogether. It was reminiscent […]
