the season is just getting started

Small sample size at 6 games. The numbers aren't lying. A 5-run loss last night is the biggest weight on the score. Making it worse, the offense at 2.8 R/G is pulling the temperature down.

Reds News

The Cincinnati Reds are facing early-season turbulence, highlighted by an 8-3 defeat to the Pittsburgh Pirates that underscored their -4 run differential over the last week. Andrew Abbott’s struggles against a tough Pirates lineup, especially with two-out situations, have raised concerns, even as the team looks for pitching stability. Meanwhile, the buzz around Sal Stewart's willingness to sign a long-term deal signals a potential shift towards securing valuable talent, though the Reds still need to find a reliable closer and figure out their outfield mix. With Connor Phillips showing promise after his first save, fans are left wondering if he could ultimately fill that role. Today’s matchup against the Pirates’ ace Paul Skenes might provide the Reds with a critical opportunity to reset their momentum.
