Game 1: Reds vs. Nationals (4:10 PM ET) - Montas vs. Gray

Photo by Aaron Doster/ Hooray, sports! Folks, we made it! After an offseason spent almost entirely wondering how the hell the Cincinnati Reds were going to shoehorn their copious position players into roster spots, the last week and a half has instead seen them scrambling to add bit-parts at their fringes. Bubba Thompson, you are a Cincinnati Red! Injuries and suspensions aside, the Reds have made it to Opening Day, and thankfully the states-long rainstorm that has canned play on the eastern seaboard has left the Queen City unscathed. As a result, Frankie Montas will...

Xavier forward Lazar Djokovic has entered the transfer portal

Robert Deutsch-USA TODAY Sports Plenty of playing time will be available this season. First, the news: Xavier C Lazar Đoković has entered the transfer portal. https://t.co/5p4qZLTNWA— Verbal Commits (@VerbalCommits) March 28, 2024 Well rats. Most of Xavier's movement in the portal has been predictable and fairly painless, but this one stings a bit. Djokovic didn't light up the stat line on a regular basis all season, but he shrugged off an injury from early on to grow into a role late on. In Xavier's last four games, he averaged 6.3/6.3/2. He didn't shoot it...

Five Dumb Predictions for the 2024 Cincinnati Reds

Five Dumb Predictions for the 2024 Cincinnati Reds

Photo by Lachlan Cunningham/ They’re dumb, and they’re spectacular! It has been something of an odd year for the prognostication corner of Red Reporter HQ. Gone is Joey Votto, stalwart that he was, the sabermetric dream of a player who graced the roster of the Cincinnati Reds long before they themselves embraced sabermetrics - and long after. In his stead sit a pile of inexperienced youngsters, the small sample size bugaboos we long ago learned not to trust until they’d given us much more data to process. Said youngsters are talented, though - at least, the ones...

The Reds are banking on a pile of second-year players. How’s that gone in the past?

Photo by John E. Moore III/ It’s Opening Day tomorrow (for at least a few of the 2023 Reds). The devastating injury to Matt McLain paired with the 80-game suspension of Noelvi Marte means that Jonathan India, once mired in a trade-block odyssey, will almost certainly feature prominently in the middle infield of the Cincinnati Reds in 2024. The former 2021 National League Rookie of the Year has had quite the bumpy road since those days, however, with multiple hamstring and foot injuries derailing his once-stellar form. A guy who had a breakout rookie campaign...

SCOTT CLAUSE/USA TODAY Network / USA TODAY NETWORK Those picks have worked in the past... The Cincinnati Bengals have been active in the Pro Day circuit and that continued Tuesday, as they attended the LSU Pro Day. Recent history with Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase shows that the Bengals have had success with LSU players, and with a talented group working, the Bengals sent staff members in to get a closer look. The coaches they sent make a lot of sense, too. Wide receivers coach Troy Walters and defensive line coach Marion Hobby made the trip. With Tee Higgins’ trade...

Matt McLain had shoulder surgery and the Reds don’t know when they’ll get him back

Photo by John E. Moore III/ The 2024 season is off to a roaring beginning. Remember when Matt McLain had a little blip of a shoulder issue, got shut down, and then after a few days headed off to California for a ‘second opinion’ from a guy who’s famous for doing big surgeries? Well, after a couple of days of radio silence, it turns out the visit to the guy who does big surgeries did another big surgery, this time on McLain. The Cincinnati Reds announced this morning that their would-be 2B for Opening Day had his left labrum repaired (along with some cartilage),...
