Cincinnati Reds News & Updates

Nick Lodolo's ambitions for the World Baseball Classic just got a boost with Tarik Skubal's exit, potentially paving the way for the Reds' lefty to don Team USA's colors and showcase his talent on a grand stage. Meanwhile, former Reds slugger Joey Votto isn't letting nostalgia cloud his judgment, he believes it's time to rethink the dimensions of Great American Ball Park, suggesting the fences should be pushed back to better suit today's game. As the Reds prepare for their matchup against the Kansas City Royals, sitting at the top of the division despite a lackluster 0-2 record in their last two games, they need to embrace these discussions and find a way to regain their offensive rhythm. With the season still young, the Reds can shake off the rust and capitalize on the momentum that comes from winning.
