The Almanac's Take

Thin slate today — one game posted, and only the Reds' side of it is confirmed; the away lineup hasn't come through yet. What's here is worth noting: Elly De La Cruz leads off with a .829 OPS and 13 home runs, and JJ Bleday hits third with an identical 13 HR and a .832 OPS. Two bats with matching power production sitting at the top of the same order is a natural pairing. Half the game is still missing, so build around what's confirmed and treat the away side as unknown for now.
