Keith Law of The Athletic released his mid-season Top 50 overall prospect list this morning, and by his count the Cincinnati Reds have a different top prospect in their system than they did on Opening Day. On the heels of his brilliant start to the AAA season, infielder Edwin Arroyo landed all the way at […]

The Cincinnati Reds have brooms on their mind tonight in Queens, as they’ve already taken the first two games of the three game series against the New York Mets on the road in Citi Field. Now, they’ll send Andrew Abbott to the mound in the best form of his season to help make it happen. […]

Cincinnati Reds outfielder TJ Friedl got 4 PA against the Philadelphia Phillies on May 18th, and he went 0 for 3 with a K and a sac-fly RBI. In the eight days that followed, he got a grand total of jsut 3 PA, with a sac bunt the only thing to show for it. That […]

From Opening Day through May 26th, Héctor Rodríguez had been having a decent-enough season for the AAA Louisville Bats. He entered play this morning having hit .270/.339/.431 with 7 homers for the club, showing an improved walk rate (up to 9.6% from 5.2% during his AAA time a year ago) and still striking out at […]
Chase Burns has been a revelation for the Cincinnati Reds this season, the former #2 overall draft pick emerging as a legitimate rotation-carrying ace during the first third of the season. Andrew Abbott, an All Star in 2025, has turned the corner after a rough start and once again looks a more-than-competent mid-rotation arm. Even […]
The Cincinnati Reds will once again give the ball to Chase Burns on Tuesday, this time on the big stage at Citi Field as the club takes on the New York Mets. A win tonight would hand them the series victory, too, as they won 7-2 yesterday in the series opener behind a fine start […]
The Cincinnati Reds took care of business on Monday night in Queens, taking down the New York Mets by the score of 7-2. Nick Lodolo was excellent, the offense consistently befuddled Mets starter Nolan McLean, and now there’s a chance for Cincinnati to take the series with another victory. Lucky for the Reds, they get […]
Nathaniel Lowe swatted a walk-off homer against the Detroit Tigers and future Hall of Famer Kneley Jansen on the night of April 24th, the final swing in a roller-coaster 9-8 victory. In that game, the Cincinnati Reds had overcome a 5-0 deficit only to give it back with a 3-run Top of the 8th by […]
The Cincinnati Reds looked perfectly miserable against New York Mets rookie Nolan McLean, at least in the Top of the 1st inning in the series opener at Citi Field. McLean breezed through the top of the Reds lineup by striking out the side to begin, with none of Blake Dunn, Elly De La Cruz, or […]
The Cincinnati Reds should be well rested and ready to take on the New York Mets by the time Monday afternoon’s first pitch is thrown at Citi Field on this Memorial Day. The Reds had last Thursday off as scheduled, and then had Friday off, too, when their series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals […]
It’s been an unfortunate yet somewhat predictable start to Nick Lodolo’s 2026 season since he missed over a month while dealing with blister issues. It forced him to tweak the way he approaches batters, looking at times to avoid throwing his slider too much and risking a recurrence of the problem. He also, obviously, missed […]
Chase Petty makes his return to the mound in a Cincinnati Reds uniform as the club called him up to start the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals in Great American Ball Park. Petty was sound in his season debut two weeks ago against the Cleveland Guardians, and hopefully has overcome […]
After Friday evening’s scheduled game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds was rained out at Great American Ball Park, the two clubs will kick off a doubleheader there on Saturday. The first game will commence at 1:10 PM ET. Chris Paddack will make his second start since being picked up by the Reds, […]
The Cincinnati Reds have officially made a swap at the hot corner. Eugenio Suárez is back after battling through an oblique issue, returning to the Reds exactly one month since the last time he played on April 22nd. That will immediately add some more thump to a Reds lineup that has been more thumpworthy of […]
By now you are all well aware of the quad issue that plagued Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz during the second half of the 2025 season. He rolled into the All Star Game having already hit 18 homers on the season, sporting a .495 slugging percentage and .854 OPS at the time. During […]
The Cincinnati Reds opted to designate outfielder Rece Hinds for assignment earlier this week. The team had turned to him for some power production after outfielder Noelvi Marte had stumbled out of the gate to begin the 2026 season, yet Hinds couldn’t quite provide the kind of production Cincinnati desperately needed in the corners. Once […]
Watching Sal Stewart struggle for the first time as a big leaguer was rough. After ripping through the month of April and taking home National League Rookie of the Month honors, May greeted him with a dose of what happens when big league pitchers and coaches finally get to scout you in detail via big […]
In taking Tuesday night’s game over the Philadelphia Phillies in 4-1 fashion, the Cincinnati Reds have set themselves up for a chance to win a road series for the first time in a month. The last time they accomplished such a feat came on April 21st when they wrapped up a victory in the second […]
So far during the 2026 Major League Baseball season, the Cincinnati Reds have received a collective .207 wOBA from the 3B position. That ranks dead last in the entire league. That’s side by side with a 21 wRC+ (last), .157 average (last), .219 OBP (last), .229 SLG (last), and 12 RBI (last). It will likely […]
There has been ample to lament about the Cincinnati Reds of late. They endured that brutal 8-game losing streak, one that featured record walk rates, bullpen meltdowns, and even a trio of consecutive walk-off defeats. They came back up for air briefly, but rode into Tuesday evening’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies once again on […]
The Cincinnati Reds once again turn to Chase Burns as they look to stem a losing run, this time in Philadelphia as they take on the Phillies in the second game of this mid-week series. Sharing the mound with Burns to start is lefty Jesus Luzardo, who looked much better in his most recent start […]
It was not Kyle Schwarber who socked a backbreaking homer off the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night in Philadelphia. That honor went to Bryson Stott, who crushed Cincinnati’s dream of a come-from-behind victory with a 2-run shot off Graham Ashcraft in the Bottom of the 8th inning that turned a 4-3 Reds lead into a […]
The Cincinnati Reds need the real Nick Lodolo now more than ever. Short outings from starters over the last three games have left the bullpen to absorb a metric %@$& ton of pitches, and the bullpen has been rife with foibles for far too long. The pitching staff needs someone, anyone other than Chase Burns […]
The Cincinnati Reds take their tattered pitching staff further on their road show on Monday, this time to the City of Brotherly Love. That’s where they’ll find the Philadelphia Phillies, who so hot right now they’re shucking popcorn. Seriously, they were once 9-19 and fired their manager, yet since Don Mattingly took the helm they’ve […]
Another clunker from Cincinnati Reds starter Brady Singer on Sunday sunk most any chance of taking the series over the Cleveland Guardians. It also sunk the Reds further and further down the statistical leaderboards in most every pitching category, a place they’ve not been for most of the Derek Johnson Era. As of the morning […]
