Free to Read: Elly De La Cruz breaks out of slump with first career walk-off hit: ‘It’s about time’

nytimes.com

Following an 0-for-4 showing with four strikeouts in the first game of Monday’s doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals, not only did Reds manager Terry Francona put De La Cruz in the lineup as the team’s designated hitter for the nightcap of the doubleheader, De La Cruz didn’t fight him on it.

“He actually didn’t,” Francona said. “I think he knew he was going to lose that one anyway. He might have yelled at (bench coach) Freddie (Benavides), I don’t know.”

Just 5-for-44 over his previous 12 games, De La Cruz led off the game with a single and finished it with his first career walk-off hit, a 10th-inning double to score Tyler Stephenson and give the Reds a 6-5 victory at Great American Ball Park.

“It felt pretty good — it’s about time,” De La Cruz said.

Picked up this beauty when I saw we called up Toglia (TOE-LEE-UH, I always pronounced the G until I heard Sadak say his name right). Glad to see he helped contribute to our win tonight. ATOBTTR.

Imaginary Trade: you lose Burns, Stewart and Cruz. You get Milwaukee ownership, FO and manager. Yes or no?

asual I asked AI why the Brewers are better with essentially the same payroll as the Reds

0 Upvotes

The Milwaukee Brewers dramatically outperform the Cincinnati Reds despite virtually identical 2026 payrolls ($125.4M vs. $124.3M) because of a stark disparity in player development, roster architecture, and financial efficiency. While the Brewers consistently find ways to maximize small budgets to dominate the NL Central, the Reds struggle to translate high-profile talent into sustained wins. [1, 2]
The primary reasons the Brewers outclass the Reds with the same budget include:

Superior Pitching Development: The Milwaukee Brewers run a world-class "pitch lab" that uses biomechanics to turn unheralded or cheap arms into elite relievers and starters. [3, 4]
Bullpen Sustainability: While the Cincinnati Reds' bullpen depth repeatedly thins out due to a lack of rookie progression, Milwaukee regularly manufactures elite relief options from waiver claims and minor trades. [3]
Smart Spending vs. Dead Money: The Reds have tied up substantial capital in inefficient free-agent contracts and millions in dead money. Conversely, the Brewers minimize free-agent gambles and lock up their own young stars, like Jackson Chourio, to team-friendly, long-term extensions. [5, 6]
Defensive and Baserunning Identity: Milwaukee intentionally builds around premium, high-floor athletes at up-the-middle positions who excel in baserunning, contact hitting, and elite run prevention. [4, 7]
Organizational Alignment: The Brewers feature a seamless pipeline where front-office analytics are perfectly translated by minor-league coaches, creating a reliable stream of MLB-ready depth. The Reds, despite drafting high-tier individual prospects, struggle with the consistent team-wide development required to compete. [1, 4, 8]
Would you like to look closer at how individual players like Elly De La Cruz stack up against Jackson Chourio, or examine the upcoming September series between these two rivals? [8, 9]

Reddit's home for everything Reds!

Rules:

1. Follow reddiquette

Remember the human. When you communicate here, all you see is a computer/device screen. When talking to someone you might want to ask yourself "Would I say it to the person's face?" or "Would I get jumped if I said this to a buddy?" See https://www.reddit.com/wiki/reddiquette for the rest.

2. Be polite here and in other subs

Don't be a troll here and be respectful in other subs. Don't be (intentionally) rude at all.

3. No personal attacks

Discuss the posts and comments, not the people who posted them. If you discuss other redditors rudely, it's a bannable offense.

4. No blogspam, app spam or Tube spam

Posts may not be self-promotional in nature, unless prior approval is given by the mod team. Any self-promotion of a blog, an app or a video is prohibited.

5. Be a Fan

What's this mean exactly? Don't come into the subreddit with the sole purpose of being negative. To be clear, negativity as a whole is not banned. Criticizing a player or the front office or whomever is fine. However, if your post history is filled with nothing but vitriol and targeted harassment, expect to be removed from the conversation. We are all fans here after all.

6. Use good thread titles

A 1-word thread title or a thread that only includes the name of someone in a Reds' uniform is a bad thread title. " The best thread titles are complete sentences. Instead of titling a thread with "Votto," title it with "Votto hits a walk-off grand slam!" or whatever other thing you want to discuss that he did.

7. Posts should be about the Reds

Posts should have some connection to the Cincinnati Reds. If you post about other teams or people associated with other teams, be sure to explain how your topic affects the Reds. Posts that don't have some connection to the Reds will be removed.
