The Reds early-season record the past two seasons was not good.
If there’s baseball in 2020, it seems more and more likely that we’re looking at a 60-game season. The Cincinnati Reds have not been fast starters the past two seasons, in fact, they’ve been downright awful. Hopefully that won’t translate into the shortened-season we’re likely to see in 2020.
The Reds went 1-8 to begin the 2019 season. Ouch, sorry for that reminder. But, on the bright side, at least it wasn’t 2018; a season that saw Cincinnati start 3-18.
