Welcome Back Joey
It was just one game, and a forgettable one at that 6-2 loss to Philly, but it was good to see Joey Votto back in the Reds lineup. He missed 50 games with a knee injury, and hitting Roy Halladay can be tough enough when you're in a groove, but your f...

Dusty's Performance Under Appreciated by Reds Fans
The Reds begin play this Sunday in first place, 25 games over .500 and 6 1/2 games in front of second-place Pittsburgh. Since Joey Votto has been out, the club has gone an amazing 23-10. Much of the praise has gone to Ryan Ludwick, Brandon Phillips, ...

Rising to the Challenge
No matter the outcome of Sunday's finale with Pittsburgh, the Reds have risen to the challenge. Facing its closest competitor for the NL Central crown, and without its 2 best players, Cincinnati has used guile, cunning -- along with pitching, defense

Bracing for the Bucs
This is by far the biggest series of the season. Three games with 2nd place Pittsburgh with a 3-and-a-half game lead. If the Pirates come to town and sweep the series, the Reds are still in first place but only by a slim half-game margin. Thus giving

Casey Rallys Reds, West Coast Trip Looms
Well how could anyone not be inspired after hearing Sean Casey's acceptance speech into the Reds Hall of Fame? If the current Reds squad wasn't motivated by Casey's words, it certainly looked like they were as Brandon Phillips crushed a 2-run HR, Sco...

Honoring The Mayor -- Sean Casey
What has mostly been an impressive month for the Reds has gotten a little dicey lately with the team having lost a seasons-high four straight and seen its division lead shrink to a game. But they'll be plenty of time to rehash the month of June later...

The View from First Place
I hope the Reds fan base isn't becoming like the Red Sox or the Yankees supporters where the team is in first place, yet you wouldn't know it from listening to the vitriol spewing from the fans. Because I'm afraid that's what the Twitter traffic impl...

Looking Beyond First Place
The Reds have climbed into first place in the NL Central. It's thanks to a current 6-game win streak that has seen some excellent pitching, terrific defense and an offense that has taken full advantage of the small dimensions of Great American Ball P...

Some Moves That Need to Made
The Reds get there first look Bryce Harper tonight as they host the Washington Nationals during a very brief 3-game home stand. Harper has been highly touted since he was in high school and noted Washington Post sports columnist Thomas Boswell has re...
