The Cincinnati Reds are currently sitting at 52-69 and in last place in the National League Central. Unless the Reds go 29-12 (.674) over the final month and half of the season, 2018 will mark the fifth consecutive losing season for the Redlegs.
A lot of Reds fans are growing tired of the so-called rebuild. They’ve seen some of their favorite players traded away and with a collective record of 328-441 (.427) of the past four-plus seasons, haven’t seen the results they’ve hoped for.
Now, that’s not to say that the Reds have made bad trades. The Reds traded away pitcher Alfredo Simon for All-Star third baseman Eugenio Suarez.
