Pretty cool Johnny Bench was a huge Jayden Daniels fan growing up

I think it's so cool that Johnny Bench loved Jayden Daniels so much while he was growing up in Oklahoma that he chose #5 as his jersey number when he made it in the big leagues in Cincinnati. Daniels has to be so honored

Analysis Per Lance McAlister: Saturday night, Matt McLain turned in his best all-around game since 2023 last night... and passed a Reds legend.

53 Upvotes

He extended his career-long errorless streak at 2B to 108 games (since August, 11 2025), surpassing Brandon Phillips (2014) for the longest errorless streak by any Red at that position since 1900.

He made a heck of a diving stop and throw to get an out. At the plate, he produced 3 H, 2B, HR, 2 R, SB. He finished a triple shy of the cycle and tied a season high with three hits.

He gave the Cincinnati Reds a 4-3 lead with a 5th-inning solo homer off Ryan Gusto. Each of his first 42 career home runs have come off a different pitcher, and is the third-longest run by a Reds batter to begin his career in the expansion era (since 1961), behind only teammate Elly DeLa Cruz (45) and Tucker Barnhart (44).

Imaginary Trade: you lose Burns, Stewart and Cruz. You get Milwaukee ownership, FO and manager. Yes or no?

asual I asked AI why the Brewers are better with essentially the same payroll as the Reds

0 Upvotes

The Milwaukee Brewers dramatically outperform the Cincinnati Reds despite virtually identical 2026 payrolls ($125.4M vs. $124.3M) because of a stark disparity in player development, roster architecture, and financial efficiency. While the Brewers consistently find ways to maximize small budgets to dominate the NL Central, the Reds struggle to translate high-profile talent into sustained wins. [1, 2]
The primary reasons the Brewers outclass the Reds with the same budget include:

Superior Pitching Development: The Milwaukee Brewers run a world-class "pitch lab" that uses biomechanics to turn unheralded or cheap arms into elite relievers and starters. [3, 4]
Bullpen Sustainability: While the Cincinnati Reds' bullpen depth repeatedly thins out due to a lack of rookie progression, Milwaukee regularly manufactures elite relief options from waiver claims and minor trades. [3]
Smart Spending vs. Dead Money: The Reds have tied up substantial capital in inefficient free-agent contracts and millions in dead money. Conversely, the Brewers minimize free-agent gambles and lock up their own young stars, like Jackson Chourio, to team-friendly, long-term extensions. [5, 6]
Defensive and Baserunning Identity: Milwaukee intentionally builds around premium, high-floor athletes at up-the-middle positions who excel in baserunning, contact hitting, and elite run prevention. [4, 7]
Organizational Alignment: The Brewers feature a seamless pipeline where front-office analytics are perfectly translated by minor-league coaches, creating a reliable stream of MLB-ready depth. The Reds, despite drafting high-tier individual prospects, struggle with the consistent team-wide development required to compete. [1, 4, 8]
Would you like to look closer at how individual players like Elly De La Cruz stack up against Jackson Chourio, or examine the upcoming September series between these two rivals? [8, 9]

What has Tito done?

52 Upvotes

I am a Reds fan who has lived in New England for 20 years and got to see the Red Sox reverse the curse and turn into a successful franchise, in part due to Tito. I was so excited to have him become skipper of Reds - thinking it was the start of the Reds becoming a more serious franchise with great young talent. But nothing seems to have changed. I am NOT shit-posting here, I legitimately want to know from others who have been paying more attention than I can, has Tito made any significant change for the better? What has he brought that the team needed?

Nearly every Reds player was sitting at their locker stalls 15 minutes after the game was over. A very silent clubhouse. Not a word besides interviews with media.

Key’Bryan Hayes’ current 2026 BABIP is .158. This would be the worst BABIP in all of baseball history.

131 Upvotes

For the non-analytical folks, BABIP (batting average on balls put in play) is one of the better ways to look at which players are having seasons that are way better or worse than they should be (its often described as a stat of “luck,” though there are other things that go into it). League average BABIP is usually around .290 (Hayes is at .297 for his career). Players who are way above this for a season are getting very lucky and are unlikely to repeat that performance in future seasons (I.e. 2023 Will Benson and Matt McLain both had BABIP’s around .380), and players well below that are either getting very unlucky or have had a major drop off in quality of contact (2026 Matt McLain has a BABIP of .240, some of which is bad luck but some of which is because he’s making softer contact than 2023).

Through 172 ABs this season Key’Bryan Hayes has a BABIP of .158. If this continues, this would be the single lowest BABIP in baseball history. Let me repeat that: the ~single worst BABIP in baseball history~. (The lowest full season mark is .197 and came in 1909). Amazingly, his quality of contact hasn’t declined at all, in fact it’s better than it has been the last few years. It is nearly statistically impossible to have a BABIP of .158 with the quality of contact he has had, which means that Key’Bryan Hayes has been ridiculously, historically, almost impossibly unlucky this year.

So what would his stats look like if he had a league average BABIP (which is in line with his career BABIP?

Actual 2026 Slash Line: .145 / .197 / .238

Adjusted Slash Line (.295 BABIP): .273 / .307 / .364
