Will the Cincinnati Reds really stick with Ke’Bryan Hayes for 2027?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Reds fans and fans across the country. The Cincinnati Reds sought out the Pittsburgh Pirates last summer as they inched their way closer and closer to a potential spot in the 2025 playoffs, […]

Michael Toglia’s season likely done as he heads for shoulder surgery

Michael Toglia dove for a ball in left field over the weekend in Arizona while playing a position he really had no business playing. He’s a 1B by trade, albeit one with a bit of right field experience, but his time in the opposite corner of the grass came in part by necessity after option […]

Savor another Chase Burns start tonight while you still can

We simply do not know how the Cincinnati Reds are going to manage ace Chase Burns as he nears an arbitrary innings limit this season. What we do know, though, is that they’re almost 100% certain to have one, and that it’s rapidly approaching soon. Burns is sitting on 136.0 IP so far during this […]

Justin Lebron, destroyer of baseballs

The Cincinnati Reds used the 18th overall pick of the 2026 Major League Baseball draft on shortstop Justin Lebron from the University of Alabama, and the early returns from his selection sure do look promising. The Reds brass assigned Lebron to High-A Dayton of the Midwest League in lieu of sticking him in the hitting […]

JJ Bleday homers to complete the cycle against Arizona Diamondbacks

JJ Bleday leaned out and turned on a Zack Littell meatball in the Top of the 6th inning of Saturday night’s game between the Cincinnati Reds and Arizona Diamondbacks down in the Land of the Endless Strip Mall, and the laser flew over the fence in right field at Chase Field for a homer. That’s […]

Reds activate Tony Santillan ahead of series against Diamondbacks

It’s almost certainly too little, too late, but the Cincinnati Reds are beginning to get some of their bullpen arms back in form. Graham Ashcraft, for instance, threw a bullpen on Tuesday at Great American Ball Park and seems poised for a rehab stint as early as this weekend. On Friday, though, the Reds got […]

Reds lose to Cardinals in most Reds way possible

You’re the home team. You’ve got two-outs on your opponents in the Top of the 9th, clinging to a one-run lead. There are runners on 2B and 3B, and you’ve got a lefty on lefty matchup with one of your best relievers on the bump. He gets a fly ball, albeit a deep one. It […]

Sal Stewart was precocious, now he’s just metal as all hell

It’s easy to forget that Sal Stewart is still two weeks away from his one year anniversary as being a big leaguer. Called up by the Cincinnati Reds on September 1st of 2025 when rosters expanded, he hit the ground running back then, too, but his 2026 season just continues to show that the Reds […]

The Reds get to try to score a run again tonight against the Cardinals

The Cincinnati Reds were shutout in yesterday’s 3-0 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals as their league-worst offense continues to be in a funk so deep even George Clinton is impressed. On Wednesday evening in Great American Ball Park, they’ll get to turn to ace Chase Burns with hopes that he can somehow hold the […]

The last-place Cincinnati Reds own the worst offense in the sport, again

We have checked in regularly on the woes that plague the Cincinnati Reds, owners of the worst record in the National League Central. Namely, we have checked in regularly on just how absymal their ability to score runs has been all season long, and last night’s shutout loss to the St. Louis Cardinals prompted yet […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. St. Louis Cardinals – Andrew Abbott vs. Kyle Leahy

After a rocky start to the 2026 season, there was a time that Cincinnati Reds lefty Andrew Abbott settled into a rather great groove. That time, though, has sadly evaporated, and he’s been nothing more than mediocre – at best – for a little bit now. Over his last 9 starts dating back to June […]

Who shoulders the blame for this latest bad Reds season?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Reds fans and fans across the country. The Cincinnati Reds salvaged what would have otherwise been a completely daft Monday yesterday, with Elly De La Cruz smacking the first walk-off hit of his […]

Reds option struggling Noelvi Marte to AAA Louisville

There have been a whopping 423 MLB players who have logged at least 100 PA so far during the 2026 regular season. Not a single one of them has produced a worse fWAR that the -1.4 put up by Cincinnati Reds outfielder Noelvi Marte. It will be hard for Marte to compound on that number […]

Cincinnati Reds set to take on St. Louis Cardinals in doubleheader Monday

Thanks to a rainout back on May 24th, this Monday will feature a pair of games between the Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals as this previously scheduled four-game series now effectively becomes one of the rare five-game variety. The Reds are reeling, once again, having dropped back to back games against the Miami Marlins […]

Reds designate RHP Ron Marinaccio for assignment, select Kent Emanuel

Right-handed reliever Ron Marinaccio was designated for assignment by the Pittsburgh Pirates on August 3rd as the NL Central rivals of the Cincinnati Reds needed 40-man roster spots for other acquisitions. The Reds, meanwhile, had openings on their own 40-man roster after dealing away Caleb Ferguson and Nathaniel Lowe, and scooped up Marinaccio off waivers […]

The Cincinnati bullpen gets its own turn to suffer

Tejay Antone never should have been tasked with this. To be quite clear, I am ecstatic that Antone not only made it back to the big leagues in very successful fashion after his third Tommy John surgery almost two years ago, but he never should’ve found himself in the situations he was in this weekend […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. Miami Marlins – Brady Singer vs. Ryan Gusto

Brady Singer’s rock solid run of form has run out of gas a bit of late. It’s enough to wonder if the entire spotlight of him being an obvious trade piece as the August 3rd trade deadline came, and went, and him still being on the Cincinnati Reds took a bit out of him. Over […]

Cincinnati Reds vs. Miami Marlins – Chase Burns vs. Sergio Alcantara

The Miami Marlins find themselves in the heart of the National League Wild Card chase, sitting just 2.5 games back of the final spot while boasting a 62-60 overall record on the season. So much of what’s gotten them there will be on display as they take on the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night, too. […]
