Great American Ball Park had the setup the Reds would have chosen if they could have scripted it in February.
Fourth of July. Fireworks night. Baltimore in town. There was anticipation for Hunter Greene, the fireballer, to step onto the field once again.

At this point last season, the Bengals were posting defensive numbers that looked more like a statistical anomaly than those of a playoff contender.
Through the first eleven weeks of 2025, Cincinnati allowed 0.205 EPA per play on defense.
No other team in the league was above 0.148. The Bengals defense struggled mightily last season.…
The Reds hot start is real, and it’s not built on one guy going nuclear.
At 17-9 and tied for first in the NL Central (per official MLB.com standings), they’re winning games even when Elly De La Cruz isn’t the story. That alone changes the feel of a night. The Reds hot start to the…
A Towering Corner Who Fits Cincinnati’s Defensive Rebuild
The Bengals continued their defensive overhaul in the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting Washington cornerback Tacario Davis with the 72nd overall pick (Round 3). Following second-round edge rusher Cashius Howell (and the pre-draft trade for Dexter Lawrence II), Davis adds elite size and length to a secondary that…
The “Speed Rushing Freak” Who Just Became Cincinnati’s Pass-Rush Savior

The Bengals don’t usually do stuff like this.
They’ve spent years drafting players, developing them, and trying to keep the roster stable without blowing up the cap.
That’s been their way for a long time. But when they sent the No. 10 overall pick in the 2026 draft to the Giants for Dexter Lawrence—and then…
The Bengals Defense Was Broken—and They're Paying Dearly to Fix It
Cincinnati's decision to Bengals trade for Dexter Lawrence in exchange for the No. 10 overall pick isn't a bold strategy—it's damage control. The Bengals allowed 147.1 rushing yards per game in 2025, the worst in the NFL. That's not a scheme failure; it's a…
The Maxx Crosby Option: Why a Veteran Edge Rusher Suddenly Makes Sense
Former NFL executive Mike Tannenbaum made the case on ESPN that the Bengals should pursue Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby.
He argued the asking price has collapsed from two first-rounders to a single Top 10 pick as injury concerns linger.
For some, if the…
Pacman Jones sentencing ends without jail time
Pacman Jones sentencing in Northern Kentucky ended Tuesday with a result that will draw mixed reactions across Cincinnati and Covington.
The former Bengals cornerback was given five years of probation after pleading guilty to assaulting a police officer and a bar employee, avoiding the 18-month prison recommendation prosecutors…
After last season’s playoff appearance gave fans legitimate optimism, many have been wondering about the outlook for the Reds 2026 campaign.
The 2026 campaign opened with the kind of energy that suggests a team ready to take the next step toward Cincinnati Reds postseason ambitions.
