News and Notes

Mark Feinsand of MLB.com wrote about Cincinnati yesterday and he led off with this question: Can the Reds be this year’s version of the Royals? While the 2024 Reds weren’t as bad as the 2023 Royals were, they weren’t a .500 team and will need to improve quite a bit in order to make the playoffs. Feinsand looks into some of the changes they’ve made in order to try and make that happen.
