AAAA Affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds
The Cincinnati Reds have a leadoff problem, and they’re well aware of it. As TJ Friedl struggled through one of the worst stretches of his (or anyone’s) career, we watched as manager Terry Francona lightly shuffled his lineup over the weekend as the Reds eschewed their recent 8-game losing streak and managed to win the […]
The Cincinnati Reds have the day off on Monday after Sunday afternoon’s series-winning victory over the Houston Astros. They also have a much clearer picture of how their banged-up starting rotation will look this upcoming week as they welcome the Washington Nationals to Cincinnati before heading up to Cleveland for a series over the weekend. […]
Let’s just go ahead and forget almost everything that happened during the first week of the month of May, shall we? Fresh off a streak-busting victory over the Houston Astros on Saturday spearheaded by Chase Burns, it was once again a Cincinnati Reds starter that fueled a win on Sunday. This time, it was 2025 […]
Rhett Lowder exited his start early on Thursday, escorted off the mound by a trainer after walking back to back batters to start back to back innings. Reports at the time indicated that he’d felt ‘clicking’ in his right shoulder, though the good news came on Friday when his MRI results came back clean. Still, […]
The Cincinnati Reds, believe it or not, have a chance to win a series on Sunday in Great American Ball Park. After stumbling their way through one of the more painful losing streaks in recent memory, they finally found their way back into the win column on Saturday, and on Sundy they’ll send a 2025 […]
The Cincinnati Reds are an absolute wreck. The Cincinnati Reds are 1.5 games out of a playoff spot. The Cincinnati Reds pitching staff owns the single worst xERA in baseball (5.21). The Cincinnati Reds are two games over .500. The Cincinnati Reds have a team wRC+ of 87, fourth worst in baseball and ahead of […]
Nothing, and I do mean nothing has gone right for the Cincinnati Reds for the better part of two weeks. On Saturday, they’ll once again get the chance to show they’re better than they’ve been during this brutal 8-game losing streak, and they’ll fortunately have their resident ace on the mound in young Chase Burns. […]
Chase Burns emerged from Wake Forest University with the reputation of being a legitimate ace, a guy who at dawn on the fifth day would ride in from the east at first light to rescue his team from the depths of hell. A guy who, amid a horrid losing streak, could take the mound and […]
The Cincinnati Reds were absolutely smoked by the Houston Astros to the tune of 10-0 on Friday night in Great American Ball Park, the loss stretching this agonizing losing streak to 8 games (so far). Nick Lodolo returned and looked mostly ok, though he did get touched up for a pair of 2-run homers in […]
I don’t know the first thing about the Houston Astros this year, and I don’t care. The Cincinnati Reds need to beat ‘em tonight, and beat’ em up good. First pitch will be chucked by Nick Lodolo, finally, as he makes his 2026 debut. First pitch is set for 6:10 PM ET. Lineups for both […]
What a week for the Cincinnati Reds, eh? They got trounced by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the series opener at PNC Park last Friday only to wake up Saturday, walk seven batters in a row, and allow 17 runs in a loss. They wrapped up getting swept in that three-game series on Sunday only to […]
The Cincinnati Reds entered play against the Chicago Cubs on Thursday afternoon in Wrigley Field mired in an ugly 6-game losing streak. Said streak featured a Saturday game against the Pittsburgh Pirates in which they walked seven consecutive batters en route to a 17-7 loss, and the first three games of the series against the […]
The Cincinnati Reds look to salvage a game from this brutal series against the Chicago Cubs on Thursday afternoon in a vintage Wrigley Field matinee. Rhett Lowder starts for the Reds opposite Cubs lefty Shota Imanaga, and the Reds have tweaked their lineup according. Elly De La Cruz also gets his first start at DH […]
It’s a headline that’s grammatically difficult to write. It’s a concept that’s rationally hard to stomach. The Cincinnati Reds have lost back, to back, to back games to the Chicago Cubs to begin this four-game series, and they’ve been walked-off in all three of them. The last two of them have even come in extra-innings. […]
Brady Singer needs a good outing. The Cincinnati Reds need a good outing. The vibes, they are not good on this five-game slide. They’ve lost back to back games on walk-offs after having the game in their lap both times. Tejay Antone is back, which is an insanely good positive boost to said vibes. The […]
It’s never good news to find out that your team’s closer is going to be sidelined with a serious hamstring injury, and it’s definitely no fun to hear that he may be out for most of two months. However, given how bad last night’s injury looked for Cincinnati Reds closer Emilio Pagan, that’s actually a […]
The Cincinnati Reds are going bold in their attempts to address their diminished bullpen. In the wake of last night’s hamstring injury to closer Emilio Pagan, they’re turning to veteran right-hander Tejay Antone to bolster their relief corps. C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic broke the news earlier on Wednesday, noting that Antone – who’s […]
We don’t yet have word on the severity of the hamstring injury suffered by Cincinnati Reds closer Emilio Pagan last night. What we do know, though, is what we all saw – and what we saw was a man who’d already once dealt with a sore hamstring this year writhing in pain after delivering just […]
Cincinnati Reds closer Emilio Pagan threw just one pitch in the Bottom of the 9th against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday night, and it’s a pitch he’ll surely hope to forget. Immediately after letting it fly to Cubs 2B Nico Hoerner, he reached for his left hamstring – the same left hamstring that had dogged […]
The Cincinnati Reds look to pick themselves up after last night’s walk-off loss (and blown save) at the hands of the Chicago Cubs. Andrew Abbott will start opposite veteran righty Jameson Taillon, with first pitch in Wrigley Field set for 7:40 PM ET. Lineups for both clubs listed below. Go Reds! Today’s Lineups REDS CUBS […]
On the surface, just about everything that Cincinnati Reds lefty Andrew Abbott has been throwing this year is the same as it was during his All Star campaign in 2025. His fastball, never a true heater, is within 0.4 mph of last year’s average, and obviously he’s been pitching in the cooler weather of April. […]
Cincinnati Reds righty Chase Burns is fresh off a brilliant outing Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. In it he pitched through a career-best 7.0 IP, held the Bucs scoreless, and lowered his season ERA to a tiny 2.20. He owns a 201 ERA+, 1.024 WHIP, and is striking out a wonderful 10.1 batters per 9 […]
Emilio Pagan took the mound in the 9th inning for the Cincinnati Reds on Monday, and he did so in a save situation for the first time in some two weeks. The Reds had scratched and clawed their way back to a 4-3 lead after earlier watching a 3-0 lead evaporate, yet the powers that […]
The Cincinnati Reds are in Wrigley tonight to take on the Chicago Cubs. Chase Petty gets the start opposite Edward Cabrera, with first pitch set for a new time of 7:10 PM ET. The game time was moved up half an hour due to inclement weather in the Chicago area. Here’s how these two clubs […]
The Cincinnati Reds made official the return of righty Chase Petty on Monday. The 23 year old starter was recalled from AAA Louisville to start against the Chicago Cubs in the series opener between the National League Central rivals, taking the place in the rotation of the injured Brandon Williamson (who hit the injured list […]
