Cincinnati Reds Showing Interest in Eugenio Suarez & Austin Hays

Nick Kirby dives into a fascinating and complicated report linking the Cincinnati Reds to free agents Eugenio Suárez and Austin Hays — and why uncertainty surrounding the team’s local TV future has placed the front office in a holding pattern. What would Suárez’s return mean for the Reds’ infield? Does Hays fit the current outfield mix? Nick breaks down each player’s potential role, roster impact, and how realistic these pursuits actually are.
Plus, Nick reacts to a major division-shifting move as the Milwaukee Brewers trade Freddy Peralta to the New York Mets. He examines the Brewers’ return package, the organization’s roster-building philosophy, and what this deal signals about Milwaukee’s direction — and how it could reshape the NL Central race in 2026.
