Reds call up Kyle Nicolas ahead of series opener vs. Angels
Jose Franco played the role of long man in the Cincinnati Reds bullpen through the first two weeks of the 2026 season. He’s a starter by trade – and a promising one, at that – but manager Terry Francona needed to lean on him in that role given the banged-up nature of the rest of […]
It’s time for the Cincinnati Reds to shake up their lineup
The offense of the Cincinnati Reds has been simply abysmal so far in 2026, ranking dead last in both runs and wRC+ through the season’s first 13 games. Of particular concern, though, is just how poor the output has been from the leadoff position. So far this year, Reds leadoff hitters have collectively put together […]
Dissecting the Cincinnati Reds league-worst offense
No team in Major League Baseball has scored fewer runs than the Cincinnati Reds so far in 2026. They’ve tallied 39 runs through 13 games played, and a lot of teams have actually only played 12 games (and still managed to put up more than 39 runs in total). Their collective wRC+ of 74 is, […]
Game 13: Reds at Marlins (12:10 PM ET) – Lowder vs. Meyer
The Cincinnati Reds go for the series victory over the Miami Marlins on Thursday afternoon in south Florida. They’ll do so with rookie Rhett Lowder on the mound fresh off perhaps his best start yet at the big league level. First pitch is set for 12:10 PM ET. Lineups for both clubs are listed below. […]
Rhett Lowder looks to close out series victory for Reds in Miami
It was far from Brady Singer’s finest evening on Wednesday in Miami. The veteran righty was smashed for 10 hits and 6 runs (5 earned) in just 2.2 IP, his own arm contributing a pair of errors that further dented his cause on the night. The end result was a 7-4 loss for the Cincinnati […]
Game 12: Reds at Marlins (6:40 PM ET) – Singer vs. Perez
The Cincinnati Reds roared back late against the Miami Marlins last night, tying the game in the Top of the 9th after having been completely shut down by former NL Cy Young Award winner Sandy Alcantara prior to that point. Then, they unleashed their offense in extra innings and took home a 6-3 victory. On […]
Reds place Jose Trevino on injured list, DFA Christian Encarnacion-Strand
The Cincinnati Reds made a series of noteworthy transactions on Wednesday morning following their dramatic come-from-behind victory over the Miami Marlins. As C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic relayed, the most immediately important of those moves was placing catcher Jose Trevino on the 10-day IL with a thoracic spine strain. With only two catchers on […]
Reds storm back with late rally to beat Marlins in extra innings
Sandy Alcantara was the runaway winner of the National League Cy Young Award back in 2022 and, when right, remains one of the elite pitchers in all of Major League Baseball. Since then, though, he’s had his share of hurdles. Tommy John surgery cost him all of the 2024 season, and his 2025 season – […]
Game 11: Reds at Marlins (6:40 PM ET) – Abbott vs. Alcantara
Opening Day starter Andrew Abbott returns to the mound for the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night in Miami as the Marlins host the second game of this four game set. Former National League Cy Young Award winner Sandy Alcantara will toe the rubber for the fish. First pitch is set for 6:40 PM ET. Lineups […]

The Cincinnati Reds are finally hitting the ball hard
You know the story of the 2025 Cincinnati Reds. They found a way to keep their record just above the .500 mark, slipped into the playoffs as the final Wild Card in the National League, and were promptly bounced in two games by the future World Series champs. They got their on the backs of […]
Streaking Reds pull out another close win, this time against the Marlins
The Cincinnati Reds swept the Texas Rangers in their first road series of the 2026 regular season, and their road exploits didn’t stop on Monday in their 2-0 series opening win against the Miami Marlins. Lefty Brandon Williamson, making just his second start since late 2024, bounced back from a rough first outing of the […]
Game 10: Reds at Marlins (6:40 PM ET) – Williamson vs. Junk

Reds send Brandon Williamson to the mound for series opener in Miami
If you simply look at the win column, the Cincinnati Reds are rolling at the moment. Winners of 6 of their first 9 games of the year, they’re fresh off a road sweep of the Texas Rangers, and they now roll into Miami to face a Marlins club that’s also 6-3 to start this year. […]
Farmers Only – Is Austin Hendrick figuring it out?
The first week of the year featuring action from all four minor league affiliates of the Cincinnati Reds is in the books, and Farmers Only is here to highlight the best of said action. We’ll start with the AA Chattanooga Lookouts, seeing as that squad won each of their first three games of the season […]
Electric Cincinnati Reds arms complete sweep of Texas Rangers
Chase Burns got the start for the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday in Arlington as the good guys looked to complete the three-game sweep of the Texas Rangers. Brock Burke got the save for the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday in Arlington as the good guys did, in fact, complete the three-game sweep of the Texas Rangers. […]
Game 9: Reds at Rangers (2:35 PM ET) – Burns vs. Leiter
The Cincinnati Reds vs. Leiter, you say? Let’s just hope this edition turns out a little bit differently than that one time we’re all now thinking about. Chase Burns leads the Reds against Jack Leiter and the Texas Rangers down at Globe Life Field in Arlington, and he does so with a potential sweep on […]
Reds look to sweep Rangers with Chase Burns on the mound
The Cincinnati Reds powered their way to victory on Friday in the series opener against the Texas Rangers, with 2-run blasts by Spencer Steer and Tyler Stephenson fueling the 5-3 victory. On Saturday, it was starting pitcher Rhett Lowder’s excellence paired with some timely bucket brigade of singles that led to Cincinnati’s 2-0 win. On […]
Game 8: Reds at Rangers (7:05 PM ET) – Lowder vs. Rocker
The Cincinnati Reds and righty Rhett Lowder take on the Texas Rangers and former top pick Kumar Rocker on Saturday evening in Arlington. Lineups for the game are listed below. Go Reds! Today’s Lineups REDS RANGERS TJ Friedl – CF Brandon Nimmo – RF Matt McLain – 2B Wyatt Langford – LF Elly De La […]
Nathaniel Lowe starts for Reds vs. Rangers in return to Texas
Nathaniel Lowe posted a 122 OPS+ in nearly 2600 PA for the Texas Rangers across four full seasons after coming over from the Tampa Bay Rays. In that time he was valued at 11.5 bWAR, won a Gold Glove, a World Series, and a Silver Slugger Award – the latter coming during a remarkable 2022 […]
You think there might be a new closer for the Cincinnati Reds this season
Asking concrete questions during the first full week of the 162-game slate is always a bit perilous. For instance, had I asked you before Friday’s series opener against the Texas Rangers whether or not Spencer Steer and Tyler Stephenson should be losing playing time due to their struggles, my best guess is that many of […]
Tyler Stephenson’s late homer leads Reds past Rangers in series opener
The Cincinnati Reds hit the road for the first time during Thursday’s day off, and on Friday began their first road series of the 2026 season. Fortunately for them, they opened the scoring in their game against the Texas Rangers the very same way they ended it – with a major 2-run homer from a […]
Game 7: Reds at Rangers (4:05 PM ET) – Singer vs. Gore
Brady Singer gets the ball for the Cincinnati Reds in his second start of the 2026 campaign, and he’ll do so looking to improve significantly on his first outing. Perhaps it was the blister issue that dogged him late in spring camp, but Singer labored through just 4.0 IP in his initial outing of the […]
Cincinnati Reds links – Nick Lodolo’s blisters, Rece Hinds mashing AAA
The Cincinnati Reds searched for a way to get lefty Nick Lodolo a rehab start on Thursday, doing so while also trying to dodge any of the adverse weather conditions that led to his initial blister flare-up in the first place. The lefty’s blister issue first became a problem down in Arizona late in spring […]
