Most surprising Silver Slugger winner in Cincinnati Reds history

While it might not be the case in 2025, the Cincinnati Reds have a long history of stellar offensive performances. In total, a Reds player has taken home the award 21 times since it was created in 1980. That number, of course, would be much higher if it existed during the Big Red Machine's run of dominance in the 1970s.

With sluggers like Dave Parker, Eric Davis, Barry Larkin, and Jay Bruce permeating the roster over the years, it's no surprise that the Reds have been well represented. Larkin, himself, is responsible for nearly half of all of the Reds' Silver Slugger selections, taking home nine in his Hall of Fame career.
