The 2025 Major League Baseball season is upon us, and, for the first time in a long time, the Cincinnati Reds fanbase is excited about their favorite team. After falling short of expectations in 2024 and firing their manager David Bell, the Reds have a new leader in the clubhouse.
The Reds have entered a new era of baseball in the Queen City. Terry Francona has taken over the reins and is ready to lead this young team back to the postseason in 2025. Headed by Elly De La Cruz, Matt McLain, and Hunter Greene, the Reds are looking to win their first NL Central Division since 2012.
Reds President of Baseball Operations Nick Krall also did a great job during the offseason of retooling to the roster to help bolster the lineup, starting rotation, and bullpen. Cincinnati fans are hoping the additions of Gavin Lux, Brandy Singer, and Taylor Rogers put their team in position to take home the division crown in 2025.
