Cooling off for real reasons. Losing by 7 last night pulls things in the wrong direction. Compounding things, down 13 in run differential this week. That's significant.

Reds News

The Cincinnati Reds made a long overdue bullpen move, optioning Connor Phillips to Triple-A after his struggles with walks, a much-needed shakeup as they gear up to face the St. Louis Cardinals tonight. With a record of 26-24, the Reds find themselves in a tightly contested NL Central, and this series presents a golden opportunity to gain ground. On a brighter note, Blake Dunn is proving he belongs in the big leagues, showcasing his potential in recent games, including a dramatic extra-inning walk-off. The activation of Caleb Ferguson from the injured list adds depth to the bullpen, while Chase Petty looks to build on a solid debut as he takes the mound against the Cardinals. With the team sitting at 3-3 over the last week, they need to convert potential into performance, especially against a divisional rival.
