From the FAQs:

Does REDS.TV replace FanDuel Sports Network?

Yes. Locally distributed Reds games are now produced and distributed by Major League Baseball under the name REDS.TV beginning with the 2026 season.

I watched Reds games last year through a cable or satellite provider. Do I need to do anything different to watch games this year?

No. It is our understanding that if you currently get Reds games from a cable or satellite provider, you do not need to purchase anything additional. Our expectation is that fans will be able to get Reds games from the same provider in 2026.

Will I be able to watch all Reds games?

Locally distributed games will be available on cable and satellite providers subject to national broadcast exclusivities. A small number of games are subject to national broadcast exclusivities with partners such as FOX, NBC/Peacock and ESPN, and you would need to have access to those networks in order to watch those games.

What channel will the games be on with my cable/satellite service?

The Reds are working with Major League Baseball to finalize those channel locations/numbers for each provider. Specific channel locations and cable and satellite providers will be announced closer to the season. We expect that the channel locations will be located near other sports programming on your guide.

Stopped by the Altafiber store in Florence to ask the staff there if I will be able to watch the Reds in 2026 with the present TV package I have.  They told me they could not give me an answer as things were still being "negotiated".  They did tell me I would receive an email regarding the status.  

Is this the best team in the Reds Castellini era?

On paper it sure looks to be, but we all know how that can change.

Reports coming out that Hunter Greene is dealing with a right elbow ‘situation.’  Reporting is kind of weird on this one.  Seems like it has been issue going back to last year, but not certain if it was reported to the team until today.  I am sure more to come on this one, but seems pretty unrealistic that he will be the opening day starter.

Horrible timing when you are fighting an injury right before the season.

Greene will be examined by longtime team physician Timothy Kremchek and have a second opinion from Dr. Neal ElAttrache.  Those two surgeon names being mentioned are not a good sign.

You can never have enough pitching.

Bring back Trevor Bauer. 

The Reds today got a walk offspring training win over the Dodgers 14-13. The Reds trailed 13-10 heading to the bottom of the 9th until Rece Hinds hit a 3 run homer for the win. Also, Elly was 2-3 with a two-run homer for the Reds.
