- Reds visit Braves Thursday at Truist Park (7:15 p.m. ET) with Atlanta atop the NL East (92-64); starters listed as Tyler Mahle vs. Brady Singer.
- Ronald Acuña Jr. is red-hot (Sept. .343, 7 HR recently) and the Braves have already clinched the NL East — he’s a likely game-changer at the top of the order.
- Cincinnati’s biggest problems are control and contact (most walks in MLB, fewest hits), but Elly De La Cruz’s power-speed and Spencer Stewart’s 32 HR/110 RBI mean the Reds can still flip a game.
