Is this Elly De La Cruz’s last game as a Red?
September 27 in Toronto.
Elly was the DH, went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts, and the Reds lost 5-1.
Could that may be the last box score he ever has as a Red?
The CBA expires December 1. A lockout is expected - and trades freeze during lockouts.
If the lockout eats all of 2027, the first time the Reds can trade him is next winter, with two years ...
The Reds are not the Brewers. The Brewers, Rays, and Guardians are all in the Championship Series. The Reds finished 75-87 and last in the NL Central.
Earlier this season Bob Castellini asked the front office “Why aren’t we the Brewers?”
According to reporting by Ken Rosenthal and C. Trent Rosecrans, Nick Krall answered with a list of trades ownership would not approve.
The same reporting sai...
Longtime Reds fans are saying they’re done.
Attendance dropped under 2 million for the first time since 2022, roughly 180,000 fewer fans than 2025.
Peak interest in the 1970s hit 2.63 million in 1976 and stayed above 2 million through 1980. The comments match the numbers.
Mason Estep of RedsDaily.com and long-time Reds beat writer C. Trent Rosecrans break down what has happened with Reds fans of new and o...
In spring training of 2025, the Reds offered Elly De La Cruz a deal that would have made him the highest-paid player in franchise history.
He turned it down.
Joey Votto’s record was 10 years and $225 million in 2012. In 2026 dollars, that deal is about $328 million. He then had the best season of his career on a last-place team. .283/.365/.515, 30 home runs, 30 steals, 30 doubles.
He is the fourth Red to...
BREAKING: Chris Valaika is coming back as the Reds' hitting coach.
Assistant hitting coach Will Remillard is not.
The offense he is being asked to coach again was last in baseball in batting average and on-base percentage. The Reds hit .229 with a .305 on-base percentage, both last in the majors. They scored 666 runs, 27th in baseball, after scoring 716 and finishing 14th in 2025.
They were second in the Nati...
BREAKING: TJ Friedl is gone.
The Reds designated him for assignment on September 20, outrighted him to Louisville on September 22, and on September 29 he refused the assignment and elected free agency.
He hit .172 with a .255 on-base and a .255 slugging in 91 games. Four home runs. Thirteen RBI. Will Benson refused his own assignment on October 3. The outfield those two left behind had a .660 OPS, the worst in basebal...
Phil Castellini sat down on Thursday and said the goal is still championship baseball. Period.
That is the same promise this ownership group made in 2006. Since then the Reds are 1,572-1,728, with two division titles, three wild cards, and zero World Series. They have not won a postseason series since 1995, the longest drought in baseball. This season opened with playoff hopes and ended 75-87, last in th...
The 2026 Cincinnati Reds season is over.
Cincinnati finished 75-87 and last in the National League Central, one year after winning a wild-card spot at 83-79. Sunday’s finale was a 5-1 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. The Milwaukee Brewers, the team Bob Castellini asked his own staff to explain, won 103 games.
Elly De La Cruz joined the 30-30 club. Chase Burns gave the rotation a real ac...
BREAKING: Bob Castellini asked his own front office a question this season that Reds fans have been asking for years.
“Why aren’t we the Brewers?”
Nick Krall’s answer, according to reporting from Ken Rosenthal and C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic, was to show ownership the trades it would not make.
The same story says the Castellinis plan to keep Krall and general manager Brad Meador...
BREAKING: The Reds are eliminated and will miss the playoffs for the 16th time since the Castellini's took over the team and promised championship baseball in a letter to Reds fans over twenty years ago.
The Reds will finish last in the NL Central this year (for the fifth time since 2015)
As fans and members of the media debate who's to blame, pointing fingers at different levels of the Cincinnati Reds organization, s...
BREAKING: There are two things Cincinnati Reds fans are familiar with: pain and early offseasons.
True to form, the Cincinnati Reds announced multiple transactions before Sunday's loss against the Chicago Cubs that as fans you never want to hear and for different reasons for both.
Chase Burns was placed on the injured list, which frankly was cautious and well done. TJ Friedl was designated for assignment much to the ...
Elly De La Cruz has electrified baseball since he debuted in May of 2023.
As the conclusion of the 2026 season draws closer and the greatness of De La Cruz's season is taking shape, the inevitable conversation on his contract status as a free agent in a few season also arises.
What can Elly De La Cruz achieve in one season at the height of his abilities? What type of contract can he command on an open market? Can the...
The road to Sal Stewart becoming a Cincinnati Red and potentially winning the Rookie of the Year Award may surprise most Reds fans.
But what may surprise even more fans is the asset awarded to a team's front office when a player wins the Rookie of the Year in the MLB, and why it's arguably more valuable to teams than the MVP award itself.

The debate on who will win Rookie of the Year has fluctuated throughout the 2026 MLB season, with
many declaring the race over in favor of JJ Weatherholt just a few weeks ago.
Sal Stewart continued producing offensively with runners in scoring position, setting the Reds franchise record for RBI's in a rookie season, eclipsing the 30 home run and 100 RBI threshold, and somehow seems to be heating up at the same time Weath...

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
