The Cincinnati Reds are back in the MLB Postseason as the No. 6 seed in the NL playoff bracket. The Reds' first opponent will be the reigning World Champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers. Cincinnati will go on the road to LA for the NL Wild Card Series, and while most experts are sure to count them out, the Reds have a puncher's chance against the Dodgers.
The Reds will likely send Hunter Greene to the mound for Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series. That alone gives Cincinnati a legitimate opportunity to steal the first game of the series.
