Reds News

The Cincinnati Reds are in a rough patch, and the recent 1-9 thrashing by the Chicago Cubs only amplifies the urgency for change. As Elly De La Cruz continues to dazzle with his MVP-like numbers, the rest of the team seems to be stuck in the mud, a grim reality that has left fans clamoring for action from the front office. Barry Larkin's impassioned comments about GM Nick Krall's status echo this frustration, as the team grapples with a disappointing 2-5 week and a staggering -18 run differential. Adding to the chaos, the Reds designated TJ Friedl for assignment, a move that raises eyebrows given his past contributions, while they brought up right-hander Carson Spiers to fill the void. With their playoff hopes dwindling, it's time for the Reds to step up and reassess their strategy, or risk losing the fanbase entirely.

The Cincinnati Reds outfield in a post TJ Friedl world
The bad news in the world of the Cincinnati Reds this weekend was that TJ Friedl was mercifully designated for assignment. That’s good news if you focus solely on the ghastly production he put forward during the 2026 season, but it’s bad news in the sense that Friedl both provided years of yeomen’s work in […]

Cubs’ Bregman suffers reported facial fractures after being hit by foul ball in ‘terrible accident’
Chicago Cubs third baseman Alex Bregman suffered facial fractures when he was hit in the head by a foul ball on Sunday, according to ESPN. Bregman was standing in the on-deck circle preparing for his at-bat when his teammate Michael Busch checked his swing and fouled off a pitch from the Cincinnati Reds’ Luis Mey. The ball struck Bregman in the face, and he immediately jogged toward the Cubs’ dugout with his hand covering the left side of his face.
