2025 Reds

Austin Hays 2 pumps + a double off the wall today. Having some production in the OF would be a welcome change
 
 
Probably a closer by committee approach with Santillan, Barlow and Rogers getting the save opportunities. I like Brent Suter, though I think he is better off in middle relief with his durability. Oftentimes pitched multiple innings for the Reds last year. It won't be Ashcraft as much as he has struggled. I don't know why his name gets thrown about in the role as much as he has struggled and gets injured.

Hurtubise and Dunn made the Opening Day roster as a result of Hays going to the IL. Also, Fairchild is gone. Spencer Steer will be playing. Looking forward to Hays, Stephenson, Abbott and Lowder getting healthy.
 
I'm excited to see what Francona does with this team. For the first time since Duaty Baker this team has an experienced, proven manager at the helm. Unless some bad injuries hit, I think they can be in contention all year.

First year that I don't live in the Cincinnati area. Felt really weird listening to the first inning on the way back home from work in Louisville, especially living in Cincy all my life so far.

Team is looking good so far. Happy that Francona is our coach....although I wanted him after Dusty got fired in 2013. I guess it's never too late. Go Reds!

Also, this is the first time since 2014 when the Reds season didn't start after another Calipari choke job. Glad those days are gone.
