Reds actually playing some good baseball, have got their record up to 15-13 with four straight wins, have moved into second in the Central, only a game and a half behind the Cubbies. Starting pitching has been mostly very solid, and some unexpected bats are really stepping up, like Austin Hays, Gavin Lux and Noelve Marte. If Steer and McLain, who are both south of .200 right now, get it going, this could be a really good season. Reds start a series at home against St. Louis tomorrow night.
