a rough stretch

The indicators are pointing down. Winning just 1 of 7 this week pulls the temperature down. Also weighing on the score: 2.6 R/G this week. Hard to climb with that kind of production.

Reds News

The Cincinnati Reds desperately needed a win, and thankfully, Chase Burns delivered as the ace halted an excruciating eight-game losing streak, keeping the Astros in check. With a record now sitting at 20-19, this victory offers a glimmer of hope for a team that’s felt the sting of a brutal -29 run differential over the last week. JJ Bleday has been a bright spot, showcasing a bat that could help propel the Reds back into contention if they can build on this momentum. However, concerns loom over Rhett Lowder's potential injury setback, which could test the club's depth further. Meanwhile, the success of Edwin Arroyo at Triple-A reminds us that help may be on the way, but for now, the Reds need to ride this win and rekindle the spark that’s been absent in recent games.
