The Reds owe it to themselves to play Rece Hinds everyday
The Cincinnati Reds have every intention of trying to win as many games as possible in 2026. That was the plan when they first hired future Hall of Famer Terry Francona to be their manager before 2025. That was certainly the plan after the 2025 club snuck into the playoffs and gave fans the thrill […]
Cincinnati’s reworked outfield isn’t working
It is not as if the Cincinnati Reds didn’t realize their outfield needed an overhaul. Take, for instance, what they tried using on July 29th, 2025 on the eve of last season’s trade deadline. Gavin Lux got the start in LF while hitting leadoff against his former club, the Los Angeles Dodgers. Usual RF Austin […]
Game 16: Reds vs. Angels (1:40 PM ET) – Abbott vs. Soriano
The Cincinnati Reds will send lefty Andrew Abbott to the mound on Sunday afternoon in Great American Ball Park. Their Opening Day starter will have the chance to lead them to another series victory, as that’s what a win today over the Los Angeles Angels would provide them after Saturday’s 7-3 win. Jose Soriano, who […]
Elly De La Cruz leads Reds past Angels to end losing streak
The Cincinnati Reds dropped the final two games of their most recent road trip as the Miami Marlins put it to them pretty heavily. Then, on Friday, the Los Angeles Angels came into Great American Ball Park and knocked around Chase Burns en route to a 10-2 win over the good guys. The Reds offense […]
Game 15: Reds vs. Angels (4:10 PM ET) – Williamson vs. Klassen
The Cincinnati Reds will turn to lefty Brandon Williamson to help them try to end their current losing streak. The Reds were smoked by the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night in the series opener at Great American Ball Park, with Chase Burns giving up a pair of dingers and 5 ER in his outing. […]
How Ke’Bryan Hayes’ offense stacks up against other Reds luminaries
Cincinnati Reds 3B Ke’Bryan Hayes is off to a 3 for 34 start to the 2026 season. In 215 PA since coming over to the Reds from the Pittsburgh Pirates last summer, he’s the owner of a combined .208/.288/.297 (.585 OPS, 60 OPS+) line, and that was enough to make me dive back into the […]
Game 14: Reds vs. Angels (6:45 PM ET) – Burns vs. Kochanowicz
The Cincinnati Reds return to Great American Ball Park after a pair of frustrating losses to the Miami Marlins ended their otherwise successful road trip. Chase Burns will take the mound as the Los Angeles Angels and Mike Trout are in town. First pitch on Friday is slated for 6:45 PM ET as the game […]
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 […]

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. […]

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 […]
