Elly De La Cruz hit what looked like a popup off the bat -- then it just kept going back and back and back... it was just to the left of the batter's eye, bounced on the concrete concourse and bounced out of the park. And Geno goes back-to-back with Elly

Terry Francona said this was as nervous as he's been in a spring training game. Not because of anything on the field, but that he was looking at the scoreboard where they'd show the Arizona-Houston basketball score. Arizona wrapped up the W right after the Reds' game was done, so he was good

Sal Stewart had the Reds' first challenge of spring -- and won. Ball was just outside for ball four

Cincinnati Reds 2026 top 20 prospects: Sal Stewart, Tyson Lewis lead the way The Reds' system has been excellent at producing pitching for the past decade, but now the system is slanted more towards hitters.

Over at @theathletic.com, @keithlaw.bsky.social has his Top 20 Reds prospects. A great read as always. One thing I love about Keith is that he has his own opinions and sees things his own way. It adds to the conversation. There are some interesting names here www.nytimes.com/athletic/701...
