Reds News
Elly De La Cruz shined brightly in the Reds' recent 5-3 victory over the Brewers, blasting a 2-run homer and driving in four runs to help secure the team’s first home series win against Milwaukee since 2022. Meanwhile, the Reds are grappling with the reality of future contracts, as Joey Votto's predictions for De La Cruz’s financial worth have sent shockwaves through the fanbase. On a more promising note, Graham Ashcraft made his return from the injured list, potentially reinvigorating a pitching staff that has struggled with a 6.6 runs allowed per game over the past week. As the Reds sit at 68-74, they face a crucial stretch against the Dodgers, starting with three games in Los Angeles, where every win counts in an increasingly competitive race.
