Some believe the flurry of post-opener extensions in MLB is related to concerns over a potential labor shutdown late next year.

If a torpedo bat revolution is underway in MLB, the New York Yankees might be at the forefront of it, but the Cincinnati Reds are close behind.

CINCINNATI -- For only the second time since 1920, the start of the Live Ball Era in Major League Baseball, a team has lost three straight games by the score of 1-0. And that team is the 2025 Cincinnati Reds, who fell to the Milwaukee Brewers 1-0 Thursday night in Milwaukee.

Oh, it probably won't matter, but it's worth pondering that the most significant feat of this opening weekend was the Padres sweeping four games against Atlanta, marking six consecutive victories over them at Petco Park, dating to their wild-card steamrolling during last year's playoffs.

Cincinnati Reds joined the 1960 Baltimore Orioles in losing three consecutive 1-run games while scoring 0 runs.

On Monday, the Reds exploded for 14 runs. It's been 28 innings since the team last scored. Is there somebody in AAA that can help?

Thursday night, for the third straight game, the Reds were unable to get a run across the plate while allowing their opponent to score just one run. This time, it was the Milwaukee Brewers who scored one run as lefty Nick Lodolo was the hard-luck loser,

With the Minor League season opening this week, here's where the Reds’ Top 30 Prospects are projected to start: 1. Chase Burns (MLB No. 25), RHP -- Dayton (High-A) 2. Rhett Lowder (MLB No. 34), RHP -- Cincinnati (MLB) -- injured list (elbow) 3.

Yes indeed, the Reds have lost their last three games by a score of exactly 1–0, falling 1–0 to the Texas Rangers on Tuesday and Wednesday, and opening a four-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers with another 1–0 loss on Thursday.
