Anyone out there still watching this with any dreams about the 2024 season?
I’ve moved on.
Tonight’s game between the Cincinnati Reds and Oakland A’s features yet another reliever on the mound in a bullpen game. First pitch is set for 6:40 PM ET, a couple guys you’ve not seen pitch much (or at all) for the Reds will follow Fernando Cruz, and they’ll inevitably DFA one or two or three of them tomorrow to promote someone fresher for the next day.
30 games to go. Lineups below.
