Reds, Chase Burns agree to 7-year, $105 million contract
The Cincinnati Reds may technically be on the All Star break, but that didn’t stop them from making one of the most important decisions of the franchise’s history. On Thursday afternoon, ESPN’s Jeff Passan announced that the club and rising ace Chase Burns have agreed to a massive 7-year, $105 contract that cements his status […]
The case for the Reds trading Spencer Steer
You remember when the Cincinnati Reds hitt he rebuild button with a sledgehammer, right? Back when they shipped away Sonny Gay, Luis Castillo, Jesse Winker, & Co. in search of greener pastures and a ‘sustainable’ future? Man, it often feels like just yesterday. It’s about to feel like tomorrow though, too. As the last place […]
Sal Stewart, Chase Burns rep the Reds in tonight’s MLB All Star Game
The Cincinnati Reds, on the whole, are having a pretty miserable season. They sit nine games under .500 and in last place in their division, with even an outside shot at one of the myriad Wild Card spots painfully out of reach. They’ve dealt with injuries galore. Hunter Greene and Elly De La Cruz, the […]
It’s Home Run Derby time!
Major League Baseball’s All Star celebration technically got underway yesterday even though they basically buried the Futures Game from existence by playing it concurrent with actual MLB games – Alfredo Duno started, caught 4.0 IP, and hit a 400 foot fly ball to CF that was caught. Tonight, though, comes the Home Run Derby, and […]
WANTED: A new front office to run the next Cincinnati Reds rebuild
We asked. You responded…overwhelmingly. Last week we kicked the question to you about whether or not you trusted the current iteration of front office folk at the helm of the Cincinnati Reds to run the team’s next inevitable rebuild. After all, they sit 9 games under .500 and in dead last in the NL Central […]
Reds coast into All Star break with another loss to the Cubs
There was a poignant moment for the Cincinnati Reds during their 8-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs in Great American Ball Park on Sunday afternoon. The Reds, last place residents of the NL Central and now 9 games under .500, actually looked like they might have figured things out for once. Andrew Abbott had labored […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Chicago Cubs – Andrew Abbott vs. Matthew Boyd
For a moment it was easy to think the Cincinnati Reds might actually be on to something again. On Friday night, with the Chicago Cubs in town, we all got to watch Hunter Greene pitch like the true ace he is, and suddenly we had dreams of what he and Chase Burns could look like […]
Cincinnati Reds place Nick Lodolo on 15-day IL with another blister
Lefty Nick Lodolo pitched well on Saturday night against the Chicago Cubs right up until the point where he didn’t, a point that just so happened to coincide with a meatball to catcher Carson Kelly that was turned around for a 410 foot homer over the CF wall. As it turns out, that meatball came […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Chicago Cubs – Nick Lodolo vs. Javier Assad
The Cincinnati Reds look to capitalize on the resurgent start from Hunter Greene on Friday that left them in position to claim the series against the Chicago Cubs with a victory on Saturday. Getting the best from lefty Nick Lodolo would go a long, long way towards making that happen. Javier Assad starts for the […]
Cincinnati Reds select Virginia shortstop Eric Becker in 2nd round of MLB Draft
The Cincinnati Reds went with college shortstop Justin Lebron with the #18 pick in the 1st round of the 2026 MLB Draft, and they backed it up in the 2nd round by taking – you guessed it – another college shortstop. This time around, it was University of Virginia product Eric Becker. Becker, who bats […]
Cincinnati Reds select shortstop Justin Lebron in 1st round of MLB Draft
The Cincinnati Reds used the #18 overall pick in Saturday’s MLB Draft to select shortstop Justin Lebron out of the University of Alabama. Ranked 9th overall on MLB Pipeline’s list of the top draft-eligible prospects in the class, the 6’2” 190 lb right-handed hitter boasts a 70 grade on his speed, 60 grade on his […]
Reds phenom Chase Burns will not pitch in the All Star Game
Chase Burns has been, quite simply, one of the best pitchers on the planet so far in 2026. Through 102.2 IP, he has struck out 118 against just 37 walks, pitching to a 2.54 ERA and 1.11 WHIP for the Cincinnati Reds. That was more than enough for him to earn his way onto the […]
Cincinnati Reds 2026 MLB Draft Tracker, Open Thread
The 2026 vintage of the Major League Baseball draft begins this afternoon, and we’re very much here for it. After all, gobbling up prospects with infinite upside lends ones thoughts towards a more promising future, and that’s just about all we’ve had to look forward to in the realm of the Cincinnati Reds for a […]
Hunter Greene strikes out 12 Cubs as Reds shutout NL Central rivals
Hunter Greene spent over three months on the shelf following his March surgery to cleanup loose bodies in his prized right elbow. Safe to say, when he returned for his season debut last weekend, things went about as poorly as they could have possibly gone. On Friday, though, the Reds officially got their ace back. […]
Spencer Steer to start in CF as Reds open series against Cubs
Spencer Steer has played just about everywhere across his college and professional careers. One place he has never played, though, is in CF. On the same day that news broke that Matt McLain would be heading to the 10-day IL with a calf strain he picked up shagging balls in CF as a player who […]
How to watch the Cincinnati Reds make their 2026 MLB draft picks this weekend
The 2026 Major League Baseball Draft begins in earnest tomorrow, July 11th, at 1:00 PM ET. And because everything must be a spectacle under commissioner Rob Manfred, it’s going to be a televised extravaganza across two days. Rounds 1-4 will be broadcast live on NBC (and streamed on Peacock) on Saturday from 1:00 PM ET […]
Reds activate Ke’Bryan Hayes, place Matt McLain on injured list
Ke’Bryan Hayes looked just 5 games at the minor league level during his rehab stint due to a lower back injury, but in that time he managed to produce with aplomb. At AAA Louisville, in particular, Hayes went 7 for 12 with a homer and 5 runs scored in just a trio of games, and […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Philadelphia Phillies – Brady Singer vs. Jesus Luzardo
Lefty Jesus Luzardo signed a massive $135 million contract extension with the Philadelphia Phillies over the winter, and promptly started the 2026 season by falling completely flat on his face. He yielded 6 ER in his first start of the year, and his first four starts of the year featured a startling line: 22.2 IP, […]
The final Chase Burns start of the Reds first half
I do not know if the Cincinnati Reds have a season that is capable of salvage. What I do know, though, is that if it is to be salvaged, it will come on the backs of their select few superstars, of which Chase Burns leads the pack. The electric 23 year old has already compiled […]
How the Cincinnati Reds will navigate the Ke’Bryan Hayes conundrum
There may be a small corner of your brain that recalls the ugly 44 games that Ke’Bryan Hayes participated in for the Cincinnati Reds at the start of the 2026 season. The Reds were actually half-decent in the standings throughout that stint, somehow, but have fallen completely by the wayside in the time since Hayes […]
Zack Wheeler eviscerates Reds in 4-1 Phillies victory
After a day off on Monday, the Cincinnati Reds opened a crucial six-game homestand with their backs against the proverbial wall in this 2026 season. They stood at 41-48 and in last place in the National League’s Central division, and were about to welcome behemoths to town in the form of the Philadelphia Phillies and […]
Cincinnati Reds vs. Philadelphia Phillies – Andrew Abbott vs. Zack Wheeler
There are precious few things that Philadelphia Phillies ace Zack Wheeler cannot defeat. That includes venous thoracic outlet syndrome, which shut him down in August of last season and cost him most of the month of April in 2026. At age 36, you may have begun to wonder if the end was near for the […]

The biggest, best trade chip on the Cincinnati Reds roster is…
After dropping the series to the Baltimore Orioles at home over the weekend, the last place Cincinnati Reds fell to just 41-48 on the season. To wrap the first half of their schedule prior to the All Star break, all they get to do is host the red hot Philadelphia Phillies (who are 20 games […]
The Cincinnati Reds had a miserable holiday weekend
You may not have had the opportunity to watch what the Cincinnati Reds were up to all weekend given the holiday, heat, and literal thousands of other things more enjoyable to do than watch this club try to play the sport of baseball. Thankfully, we here at Red Reporter are going to wrap up the […]
