Gomes Traded To Nationals, Alonso Called Up From Louisville
With the trading deadline fast approaching, the Cincinnati Reds, with Walt Jocketty as the general manager, were not going to just sit on their hands while other teams inside and outside the National League Central Division were making – or attempting to make – trades to better themselves. With that in mind, the team on [...]
Reds Suffer Power Shortage At GABP, Nationals Sweep 7-1
For those of you who either witnessed the Cincinnati Reds game in person at Great American Ball Park or watched the game on MASN (Reds were not on TV), then you probably found out first hand that starting pitcher Edinson Volquez is not Superman – although you wouldn’t have known that based on his last [...]
Strasburg Outpitches Arroyo, Nationals Pound Reds 8-5
It isn’t very often that Great American Ball Park is nearly filled to capacity on a weekday; however, to be fair, Stephen Strasburg and the Washington Nationals came visiting on Wednesday.

Bullpen Nearly Melts Down, Reds Edge Nationals 8-7

Cueto Pitches, Bats Reds To 7-2 Shellacking Of Nationals
The way that Johnny Cueto has been pitching for the past month or so, I am surprised that there wasn’t very much politicking for him to get on the National League All-Star team. Consider that in six games going back to June 18, the Reds starting righthander has pitched 40 2/3 innings, given up 32 [...]
Monday Game Preview – Nationals @ Reds
When: Monday, July 19, 7:10 PM (ET) Where: Great American Ball Park, Cincinnati, OH Who: Johnny Cueto (8-2, 3.42 ERA) vs. J.D. Martin (1-4, 3.35 ERA) Personally, I’d just assume forget the majority of the past five games that the Cincinnati Reds have played as the bats, during that time, have been unusually quiet whereas [...]
Stubbs Redeems Coco With Gamewinner, Reds Nip Nationals 5-4
I am sure you have heard it alll before in terms of how a team wins its games. Some win them dominantly. Some win by the skin of their teeth. Some teams win their games ugly. Sort of like they won, although they didn’t exactly deserve it. The Cincinnati Reds, in their game against the [...]
