Reds News

The Cincinnati Reds are sinking deeper into a freeze, following a 2-5 loss to the Kansas City Royals that marked their seventh loss in the last nine games. With a run differential of -17 over the past week, the bullpen, led by Tony Santillan, is struggling to hold leads and protect the fragile momentum. In the wake of this tough stretch, the Reds have begun making bold roster moves, trading Kyle Nicolas to the Orioles while also parting ways with a reliever whose ERA was causing fans to cringe. Amidst this turmoil, Sal Stewart shines as a bright spot, emerging as a contender for the National League Rookie of the Year. However, the team faces uncertainty around securing his long-term future as trade winds swirl and performance issues plague the pitching staff.

Tony Santillan implodes again in 5-2 Reds loss to Royals
I feel for Tony Santillan at the moment. He’s been such a vital part of the Cincinnati Reds bullpen, when healthy, for several years now, but it’s undeniable that he’s been struggling for weeks now to no avail. Problem is, the more he struggles, the more that’s still being asked of him. Simultaneous with his […]
