The Cincinnati Reds are riding high on a five-game win streak in the 2025 season, showcasing a blend of young talent, veteran leadership, and pitching prowess that has fans buzzing. This streak, capped by a 3-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on April 28, has improved their record to 16-13, securing a winning April and positioning them as contenders in the NL Central. Here's a deep dive into what's fueling this red-hot run. The streak began with a dominant sweep against the Pittsburgh Pirates, highlighted by Hunter Greene's masterful seven scoreless innings on April 13, allowing just two hits while striking out eight. The Reds' offense complemented their pitching, with timely hits from Elly De La Cruz and Santiago Espinal. This momentum carried into a road series against the Colorado Rockies, where Nick Lodolo shone in an 8-1 rout on April 27, backed by 14 hits from players like Noelvi Marte, Spencer Steer, and Gavin Lux, who extended his hitting streak to 11 games. The offense has been clicking, going 4-for-10 with runners in scoring position in the Rockies sweep, a stark contrast to earlier struggles. Back home, the Reds faced the Cardinals, with Nick Martinez delivering a quality start and Jose Trevino blasting a crucial home run. De La Cruz, now boasting a 12-game hit streak, and Marte's three times on base kept the pressure on. The bullpen, including standouts like Emilio Pagán and Graham Ashcraft, has been nails, preserving leads and shutting down opponents. Defensively, despite De La Cruz's sixth error of the season, the team has made clutch plays, with Marte stealing two bases in the Rockies series to spark rallies. Under manager Terry Francona, the Reds have shown resilience after a 2-6 start, going 12-8 in their last 20 games. The addition of veterans like Trevino and Austin Hays has bolstered a young core featuring De La Cruz and Marte, creating a balanced lineup. Social media is abuzz, with fans on X proclaiming, “Reds are now 3 games over .500!” This streak signals a turnaround, with the Reds 11-3 when scoring five or more runs. As they host the Cardinals next, the Reds aim to keep the fire burning and chase a playoff spot.

On a chilly Tuesday night at Great American Ball Park, the Cincinnati Reds secured an 8-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners in the series opener, marking their fourth straight win and pushing their record to 9-8, above .500 for the first time since May 2024. The game was a showcase for Austin Hays, who made a thunderous debut with the Reds after missing the season's first 16 games due to a left calf strain. Signed to a one-year, $5 million contract in January, the 2023 All-Star outfielder proved his worth, going 2-for-4 with four RBIs, including a pivotal three-run homer, and etched his name in Reds history as only the third player since 1920 to drive in at least four runs in his team debut. The Reds trailed early, with Mariners' Dylan Moore hitting a leadoff homer and adding a two-run shot off starter Nick Lodolo, who struggled, allowing four runs over 4 2/3 innings. Seattle's Luis Castillo, a former Reds ace, held a 4-2 lead into the fifth, but Cincinnati's offense, bolstered by Hays and Gavin Lux, flipped the script. Lux, who had four hits, drove in two runs, including an RBI single in the fifth that set the stage for Hays. With two on, Hays crushed a 1-1 fastball from Castillo to center field for a go-ahead three-run homer, giving the Reds a 6-4 lead they wouldn't relinquish. The crowd of 17,205 roared as Hays rounded the bases, signaling his arrival as a key piece in Cincinnati's lineup. The Reds' bullpen sealed the win, with Scott Barlow earning the victory, and Graham Ashcraft, Tony Santillan, and Emilio Pagán combining for scoreless relief. Pagán closed the ninth with ease, retiring the Mariners in order. Despite Moore's two homers and four RBIs for Seattle, their four-game win streak ended as Castillo faltered, allowing six runs in 4 1/3 innings. Hays' debut underscored the Reds' offensive potential, especially with Matt McLain and Alexis Diaz also returning from the injured list. As Cincinnati eyes a strong homestand, Hays' historic night suggests he could be the spark to sustain their momentum. The teams face off again Wednesday, with Nick Martinez starting for the Reds against Bryce Miller.

On April 2, 2025, the Cincinnati Reds face the Texas Rangers in the decisive third game of their series at Great American Ball Park, with first pitch set for 12:40 PM EDT. After splitting the first two games, the Reds aim to secure their first series win of the young season. The series opener saw Cincinnati's offense erupt for a 14-3 victory, powered by Elly De La Cruz's two home runs and seven RBIs, alongside Brady Singer's seven shutout innings in his Reds debut. However, the Rangers bounced back in Game 2, with Nathan Eovaldi delivering a masterful complete-game shutout, allowing just four hits in a 1-0 win, evening the series. Today's matchup features Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (0-0, 3.60 ERA) against Rangers righty Jack Leiter (1-0, 1.80 ERA). Greene, coming off a solid first start, will look to harness his electric fastball to stifle Texas' lineup, which has struggled offensively outside of Wyatt Langford's solo homer in Game 2. Leiter, fresh off his first MLB win, brings momentum but faces a Reds offense that showcased its potential in the opener. Cincinnati's key hitters, like De La Cruz and Gavin Lux, will need to solve Leiter early to avoid another quiet day at the plate. The Reds' pitching staff has shown promise, but consistency remains a question after Spiers' loss in Game 2. Defensively, Cincinnati must tighten up after De La Cruz's error in the field last night. With a daytime start and 67-degree weather in Cincinnati, conditions favor a competitive game. A Reds win would signal early-season resilience, while the Rangers hope to ride Eovaldi's momentum and steal the series on the road. Expect a tight contest as both teams vie for the upper hand in this final showdown.

A.J. Preller and the San Diego Padres have had one of the quietest offseason in all of Major League Baseball... excluding the lawsuit between Sheel Seidler and the Seidler Brothers. Does any team in the National League West even have one bad transaction as awful as the Friar's winter? Los Angeles signed arguably the three or four best free agents in Roki Sasaki, Blake Snell, Tanner Scott and Teoscar Hernández. Were the Dodgers trades to acquire international bonus pool money and the Gavin Lux swap with the Cincinnati Reds better than any the Colorado Rockies achieved? Plus, Arizona Diamondbacks signed an ace in Corbin Burnes and the San Francisco Giants signed a future Hall of Famer in Justin Verlander. Include the Willy Adames deal and can it be argued that the Giants had the best offseason in the division?
In this episode, we talk to Mike Sirota the young prospect that came over in the Gavin Lux trade from the Cincinnati Reds. We get his reaction to the trade, what to expect as he makes his way through the Dodgers system. We also have updates from DodgerFest. We got timelines on Shohei Ohtani's injury and when he may start pitching, Freddie Freeman updates his injury and surgery plus a whole lot more

Fantasy Baseball Live – January 11, 2025 @ 12:30 PM ETSegment 1 – News and Notes1.The Giants sign Justin Verlander to a one-year, $15 million contract. Remember him? He's got to be better, right? Stat line for 2025: IP, Wins, Ks, and ERA.a.BTW, I heard the Orioles pursued, but once again, Verlander showed no interest.2.The Reds acquired Gavin Lux from the Dodgers for OF Mike Sirota and the Reds' Competitive Balance Round A selection (pick 37). a.As we discussed, the Dodgers were likely to move on from Lux, and they did. But is he a fit for the Reds?i.Let's look at their starting infield.b.Do you like the deal for Reds?c.Does this move Kim up on your draft rankings?3.The Rangers sign Chris Martin. He was pretty good over the past two seasons with the Red Sox. He's 38 but will be playing in his hometown. a.Do you think he could sneak some saves this season? 4.The Blue Jays signed Jeff Hoffman last night to a $33 million, 3-year deal. It wasn't a big signing, but it's being reported that the Blue Jays indicate he might get the chance to close.a.What say you.b.A lot of people don't remember that the Blue Jays originally drafted him ninth overall in 2014 but then sent him packing to Colorado for Troy Tulowitzki. Yet, another in a long list of Rockies' pitcher experiments.Segment 2 – First Base Preview1.How are you approaching this position for your upcoming drafts?2.We will break down the top 15 to 20 in detail. Then, go through 20 to 30 in less detail. We will end by jumping around the remaining ranked players.3.Which player not in the Top 10 has a chance to emerge there next season?4.Which Top 10 player will not be there next season?5.Give me a couple of sleepers6.Give me one, maybe two guys you are just going to avoid drafting?

The San Diego Padres are in the midst of a lawsuit battle over ownership that involves the late Peter Seidler's wife, Sheel Seidler, and his brothers over who should control the team. While this situation doesn't appear to have a resolution in sight anytime soon, the future of the franchise will certainly hinge on how things unfold.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the lawsuit and statement issued by Sheel, the obligation she feels to Padres fans and her late husband's legacy and her efforts to continue building a winning team. They also explore how this messy drama might be affecting the Padres' offseason plans, including their pursuit of Roki Sasaki and other free agents.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about the San Francisco Giants signing Justin Verlander and what his expectations should be heading into his age-42 season, the Los Angeles Dodgers trading Gavin Lux to the Cincinnati Reds and Brent Rooker signing an extension with the Sacramento A's.
