last night's loss

Cooling off for real reasons. Losing by 5 last night pulls things in the wrong direction. Also weighing on the score: a 3-4 week weighs heavy on the score.

Reds News

The Cincinnati Reds are riding the momentum of a 9-7 victory over the Pirates, but the buzz surrounding the team is overshadowed by injury concerns as they prepare for a crucial series against the Brewers. Eugenio Suárez's X-rays on his left hand came back inconclusive, and Elly De La Cruz is nursing a sprained left ankle, raising questions about their availability. Meanwhile, the potential return of Hunter Greene could provide a much-needed boost for a struggling bullpen, though the Reds must tread carefully as Brady Singer's name pops up in trade talks. On a more positive note, TJ Friedl has been recalled to fill the gap left by Blake Dunn, who has landed on the injured list. With a record of 39-42 and a recent 4-3 stretch, the Reds need to tighten up as they eye an uphill battle in the division.
