What's worse: Not having money and not spending any, or having money and not spending any?       

Aristides Aquino, who homered twice Monday, regained his confidence after the Reds designated him for assignment last month.       

Among hitters who have totaled at least 150 at-bats against the Reds, Ian Happ ranks third all-time in OPS behind Barry Bonds and Dante Bichette.       

Connor Overton, who has been fantastic in the Reds' rotation, will miss at least the next two months after he had his back examined Monday.       

The MLB season reached the quarter mark last weekend, and the Cincinnati Reds own the league's worst record at 12-28.       

New blood can be inspired blood. Look at the players who have helped the Reds lately like Graham Ashcraft and Alexis Diaz.       

Joey Votto hit his first homer of the season in the eighth inning Sunday to give the Reds a 3-2 victory over Toronto.       

Graham Ashcraft allowed two runs in 4 1/3 innings in his MLB debut during the Reds' 3-2 victory against the Blue Jays.       

Joey Votto hadn't homered all season before Sunday. But in his hometown, Votto called his go-ahead game winner.       

Joey Votto had waited all season for a moment like this, hitting the go-ahead home run in his hometown in a Reds win.       

Mike Minor and Connor Overton both had setbacks, so the Reds depth in the rotation will be tested this week.       

For the second straight game, Hunter Greene had an incredible start and showed his potential. This one was shorter, and the Reds lost to Toronto.       

There are more than two months until the trade deadline, but the Reds will be one of the most-watched teams by scouts throughout the summer.       

Twenty years after he graduated, Joey Votto stays loyal to his old high school near Toronto. At Richview, he continues to make an impact.       

The Reds had to make some significant lineup changes for Friday's game, and the offense had an off night.
