Unfortunately, that needed to happen awhile back. Glad it has now.

* Of course, we all knew we'd lose the series to STL..lol
* Matt is starting to return to form FINNALY!
* We don't need Chase to be dominate; we just need him to give us 5 innings every start! He has to be good and not get hammered like Petty has in the bigs
* It's a crime that TJ isn't getting ANY All-Star love in voting
* We need to make to additions now or at the deadline. We HAVE to get a everyday OF that can hit lefties! Secondly, we need some late bullpen help.
* Elly needs to run more when on base!
* If we do make a big run at somebody at the deadline (which I doubt we do), who do we give up?? Martinez? Singer? Petty?

Martinez and Petty are expendable as far as I am concerned, providing they get the OF bat and good pen help.

Steer is just a smart ballplayer. Got some guys finding their strokes. Good pitching, nice W.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Judge who?? My name is Elly!

 

[GordonC]

Lodolo with solid work tonight.

 

[Vols4us]

Dang - Burns K's the side in the first inning of his first start in MLB against the Yankees and Judge.

Oh yeah...

 

[Sea Ray]

Reds beat Yankees in 11, 5-4

 

[Sea Ray]

Reds come back with 2 in the 9th to beat the Padres 3-2 and take the series. Reds have won 6 of the last 7 series against pretty good teams

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

We should be looking desperately RIGHT now for a right handed power OF and a couple bullpen additions. We can make things interesting in the NL Central if we make a couple moves real soon!

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

The Cincinnati Reds (44-40) and are 14-7 since June 5.

They have won 6 of their last 7 series
Arizona (sweep), Cleveland (sweep), at Detroit (2 of 3), Minnesota (2 of 3), at St. Louis (lost 2 of 3), NY Yankees (2 of 3), San Diego (2 of 3).

Since being a season low four games under .500 at 20-24, the Reds are eight games over .500 (24-16)

Game 2 of the Chase Burns era…..not so good.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Boys are rallying oh

 

[Vols4us]

The pen is not good currently.

 

[Sea Ray]

We salvaged the last game tonight in Boston. Still haven’t been swept all year. The only MLB team that can still say that

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

CES leaves Fenway, literally

 

[95 Vol Alum]

The pen is not good currently.

Need to show up now.

 

[Vols4us]

CES should not play 3B. DH and 1B only.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Back to 0.500, it seems.

 

[Vols4us]

Just brought up a few games ago by the Royals. He is who I wanted instead of Burns. It would have enabled them to move Spencer to another position that needed an upgrade and solidified 1B with a great hitter for a long time.

466 feet?! Cags crushes KC's longest rookie HR -- sealed with a kiss

KANSAS CITY -- The sinker that Jac Caglianone hit in the fourth inning Wednesday night was gone as soon as his bat made contact with it -- everyone in the ballpark knew that. But then it just kept going. Caglianone’s two-run home run off Pirates starter Bailey Falter cleared not

Spencer Steer has been absolutely great now that he is healthy again. A very valuable player for Da Reds.

I used to take the family to a Reds series every year. We would stay in Covington and ride the shuttle bus to the ball park and back. When they discontinued the shuttle the year covid hit we didn't go and we got out of the habit and haven't been since then. Is the shuttle from Covington to the Reds games back up and running? Do they still stop at most of the hotels? We are trying to get a trip together but I hate trying to drive and park.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Sadly unless we get a right handed power bat and some bullpen help i don't think we're a playoff team. To inconsistent on offense.

From Cincinnati Reds
Cincinnati Reds Director of Amateur Scouting Joe Katuska tonight announced the selection of INF Steele Hall (6-0, 180, R/R) out of Hewitt-Trussville High School (AL) with the team's first pick (9th overall) of the 2025 MLB Draft.

Hall, 17, was named Alabama's Mr. Baseball after slashing .484/.554/.871 (60-for-124) with 8 homers, 14 doubles, and 35 RBI as a junior at Hewitt-Trussville High School in 2025. He is the first Alabama prep middle infielder to be selected in the 1st round since 1971 (Condredge Holloway, 4th overall).


Hall transferred to Hewitt-Trussville after spending his first 3 years of high school at Daphne High School (AL). As a sophomore in 2024, he batted .331 with 31 stolen bases.

Hall is rated as the 12th-best player in the draft by MLB.com and the 15th-best prospect by Baseball America. He was also ranked as the top player in the state of Alabama and the 17th-best player in the nation by Perfect Game. Hall had previously committed to the University of Tennessee prior to being drafted.

The Reds will complete the first day of the draft by selecting 51st (second round) and 83rd (third round).
