Well, now that Bryan Price is gone, the Reds are sure to make the postseason! Right? They only have to win…wait, 3-15?!? This man managed the team to 3-15?! Is it even possible to make the playoffs at this point?
So the short answer is: Yes and no.
Before diving into the various semantics of 2018 Cincinnati Reds Playoff Team, I want to point out that the 3-15 record isn’t entirely Price’s fault. He definitely did the team no favors with his decision making, but we’re 18 games in and Mike Trout has only been worth 1.
