The MLB season is already nearly two weeks old and it’s time to reflect on how things are going in the NL Central.  For the Cincinnati Reds at least, they have found two possible gems in the tandem of Hunter Greene and Nick Lodolo.  We’ve already heard about Hunter Greene, for that matter what baseball […]

Hunter Greene – Bringing the Heat (Literally)

Normally, it’s hard to get excited early in the season when a rookie pitcher loses his second MLB start 5-2 on the road and that’s exactly what Hunter Greene did Saturday night at Dodger Stadium.  Yes, it was a bit of a homecoming for Greene since he hails from Sherman Oaks, CA in the San […]

A Look at the NL Central and Pennant Probabilities

The NL Central the most up-for-grabs divisions in baseball in 2020. Both the NL East and NL Central are divisions that only have one team that is essentially considered out of the race from the get-go. In the NL East, that team is the Miami Marlins. In the NL Central, that team is the Pittsburgh […]

Dan Driessen, Forgotten Cog of the Big Red Machine

Do you remember your first trip to a Major League ballpark?   The sights and sounds of the Big Leagues can be dizzying for a young fan getting his first in-person taste of the game at the highest level.   That was certainly the case for me when I visited Riverfront Stadium on June 23, […]

The Crazy Man Value of Billy Hamilton!

A guest post by Brian Jones via FeedCrossing Billy Hamilton won’t see much major league time in 2013, if any. Zack Cozart plays a solid shortstop and Dusty Baker is notorious in his preference for veterans and misuse of rookies. Hamilton is being played in CF, but the reality is that he needs a little more time […]

Reds fail in the clutch

Unfortunately for the Cincinnati Reds, the 2012 season was cut short by likely National League Most Valuable Player Buster Posey and the San Francisco Giants.

A Look Back at Barry Larkin’s Hall of Fame Reds Career

This past week Barry Larkin received the highest honor in baseball, induction into the Hall of Fame.

Reflections on the Reds: Three reasons to watch the Reds

As interleague play comes to an end and the All-Star break nears the Reds find themselves both in first place, and in a pretty good position to continue their success into the postseason. Everything seems to be falling their way, except attendance. Recently average game attendance is up about 3,500, yet they are still ranked […]

Reflections on the Reds: An April Review

The beginning of the season and the month of April for the Reds has been entertaining to say the least. 4 games going into extra innings, with plenty more 1 run wins and losses.

Reds Bullpen & Other Musings

Spring Training is in full swing at this point and as usual every team is learning who’s who and, most importantly, realizing what they have to work with for the upcoming season.

Overview You can tell there is a different perception of the Reds in Cincinnati when fans seem to be getting impatient and worried after a 14-13 start in April.  The Reds had a very easy schedule, facing the Astros, Pirates, Padres and Diamondbacks twice, but were unable to capitalize because of injuries and all around […]

American and National League Divisional Series Prediction

For the Reds, the Off Season Will Flow Out of LF

The biggest decision facing the Reds to begin the offseason is the choice of a left fielder. It is unlikely the Reds will spend money to go after a free agent like Matt Holliday or Jason Bay: instead, the choice is between which incumbent will get a commitment. The candidates: Jonny Gomes, Wladimir Balentien, Chris […]

Do the Reds Have a Plan?

Reds at 50 (well, 48)

The Reds sit at 26-22 on the last day of May, just 2.5 games out of first place.  This should be a familiar record for the Reds this season.  With their brand of strong starting pitching, team speed, and improved defense, this team will be between three and seven games over .500 for most of […]
