Photo by Andy Lyons/ On a memory-filled Sunday afternoon at Great American Ball Park. Christian Encarnacion-Strand clubbed a homer into left-center with one out in the Bottom of the 8th inning on Sunday, in the process giving the Cincinnati Reds an insurance run that, after recent implosions, felt as vital as any they’d had all season. A 4-2 lead was then had, and after the next batter up singled up the middle, Reds manager David Bell sent the speedy Stu Fairchild out as a pinch runner - as one does in that situation, of course. The nuance of it all was quite...
Red Reporter Sep 24, 2023
Photo by Aaron Doster/ Saturday’s gut-punch loss to Pittsburgh burned through the final brake pad. That the Cincinnati Reds sprinted to a 9-run lead in their final Saturday home game of the season was fitting. It was a sprint, something they’ve mastered as they have sped around the bases all season, a rookie in Christian Encarnacion-Strand getting the party started. Rookies punching down the door and showing their talent - that’s the storyline of the 2023 Cincinnati Reds. As Saturday showed, however, there’s a whole lot more to a roster than merely finding...

Photo by Aaron Doster/ The Reds are running out of time to turn things around. After Monday night’s win against the Minnesota Twins, the Cincinnati Reds were flying high. They had won 6 of their last 8 and were sitting in the final wild card position. Three games later, things look much different. They last the last two in heartbreaking fashion, blowing late leads in both, and now are a game and a half behind the Chicago Cubs for the final playoff spot with only 7 games remaining. Connor Phillips takes the mound tonight for the Reds as he looks to capitalize off the...

Photo by Aaron Doster/ A heartbreaker at the worst of times. The Cincinnati Reds have, for all intents and purposes, been riding a one-man starting rotation of late. Injuries to the likes of Graham Ashcraft, Nick Lodolo, and Ben Lively began the downfall, while Brandon Williamson has struggled for both quality and depth since a bout on the COVID injured list. Connor Phillips and Lyon Richardson, for all their youthful talent, have been shuttling back and forth from Louisville to the active roster to fill in where they can, but there’s been perilously little stability...

Red Reporter Sep 20, 2023
Photo by Jim McIsaac/ The home series vs. Minnesota is on the line, as are the playoffs. ‘Up and down’ is perhaps the easiest way to describe Hunter Greene’s 2023 season for the Cincinnati Reds. He was poked around pretty good in his first start of the year against the then-upstart Pittsburgh Pirates, and threw a clunker at Coors Field against Colorado in early May. He flashed brilliance in fanning 10 Atlanta Braves in late April, however, just days before inking a contract that could pay him up to $95 million over its life to be the next face of the Reds...

The Twins traded away prospects for pitching, and now some of those prospects have put the Reds in the National League playoff race after being a 100-loss team last season.

Photo by Dylan Buell/ Fernando Cruz gets the start, but there will be a whole lot backing him up tonight against Minnesota. There are 10 games left in this 2023 season for the Cincinnati Reds. Two key pieces of the rotation, Nick Lodolo and Graham Ashcraft, are out for the season and the former has not pitched for the Reds since June. Hunter Greene missed a couple of months and a slew of others have missed important time for the Reds. And yet, the Reds still find themselves right in the thick of the battle for the last two National League Wild Card spots. After getting...

The Reds outplayed the Twins in virtually every facet on Monday evening. | Kareem Elgazzar/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK Not a whole lot positive to say about this one... The Minnesota Twins entered play on Monday evening with a magic number of just five. After a nothing-to-write-home-about performance at Great American Ballpark in the season opener against the Cincinnati Reds, the number remains the same. The first hit of the game didn’t come until the second batter of the bottom of the second inning. By that time, there had already been two walks, a Twins runner...

Photo by Aaron Doster/ Go Reds! It is an annual tradition at Red Reporter that we inevitably get the game numbers wrong. As it is, it appears we made it almost 92% through the season before finally veering off course, which may well be a record, for all I know. Anyway, tonight’s game marks the 152nd game of the Cincinnati Reds season, with only 10 games remaining after this one is complete. Go Reds!

Photo by Justin Casterline/ The mid-August waiver claim simply didn’t work out. Hunter Renfroe has, at times, been an excellent Major League Baseball player. He mashed over 30 homers in each of the 2019 and 2021 regular seasons, has 177 dingers to his name for his big league career, and has banked over $27 million for his efforts at the game’s highest level so far. What he’s not been, though, is great lately. And lately, he’s been a member of a Cincinnati Reds club that is scratching and clawing to stay in the race for a National League Wild Card spot in the...
