The Cincinnati Reds fell 4-1 to the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday night at Great American Ball Park, undone by a disastrous 8th inning. Two costly defensive miscues by Gavin Lux opened the door for Philadelphia before Kyle Schwarber delivered what felt like the most predictable home run of the Reds’ 2025 season. Despite his struggles in the field, Lux was the lone bright spot at the plate, collecting three hits and driving in the Reds’ only run in the 1st inning. The loss dampens momentum as Cincinnati continues their homestand against a tough Phillies club.

The Cincinnati Reds face crucial decisions as Andrew Abbott's performance against the Phillies raises questions about his role as a potential ace. Jeff Carr analyzes Abbott's impressive 2.41 ERA and his importance to the team, while emphasizing the need for clutch performance in high-pressure situations. The host reveals Terry Francona's plans to move Chase Burns to the bullpen, exploring how this strategy could strengthen the pitching staff and provide flexibility.

Carr dives into the Reds' recent struggles with clutch hitting, using advanced statistics like WRC+ to illustrate the team's performance with runners on base. He discusses specific players who are excelling or faltering in crucial moments, expressing optimism for improvement as the season progresses. The episode also covers potential ripple effects on other pitchers like Nick Martinez, Luis Mey, and Sam Moll.

Get the full scoop on the Cincinnati Reds' pitching strategies and hitting challenges – listen now to gain valuable insights into the team's current state and future prospects!
