Reds News

Sal Stewart continues to light up the competition in his race for NL Rookie of the Year, showcasing his skills as the Reds battle the St. Louis Cardinals. However, it was a night to forget for Hunter Greene, whose promising start crumbled in the sixth inning, exposing the team's pitching inconsistencies. The Reds' recent 5-2 stretch shows they can win, but defensive misplays and a lack of run support have plagued them, as highlighted by Andre Pallante's sharp outing for the Cardinals. With a deadline approaching, Cincinnati seems poised to retool rather than sell, aiming to capitalize on their young talent while staying competitive. As they look to bounce back against St. Louis, the Reds need to tighten their defense and rally around Stewart's hot bat to keep the momentum going.
