Cooling off for real reasons. 2-5 in their last 7. Not the week they wanted. Compounding things, getting outscored by 18 in a week. That tanks the score.

Reds News
The Cincinnati Reds are feeling the heat as they slip under .500 following a disheartening 10-3 rout by the Cardinals, marking a dismal 2-5 stretch over the past week with a staggering run differential of -22. While fans anxiously await the return of ace Hunter Greene, whose timeline is now aimed at a pre-All-Star break return, the bullpen continues to falter, with Sam Moll facing the brunt of criticism after a crucial eighth-inning meltdown. Despite the struggles, bright spots like JJ Bleday (.286) and Sal Stewart (.263) show promise, but for this team to turn it around, they need more than just flashes of brilliance. As they look to rebound in their rematch against St. Louis, the Reds must find consistency in their pitching and capitalize on offensive opportunities to avoid further sliding in the standings.
