## Resource

Blake Dunn’s rehab is on hold as his elbow issue worsens, possibly requiring surgery after a second opinion in Dallas—coming just months after his initial injury. Meanwhile, Sal Stewart’s rookie surge continues, with his 21st homer and 74 RBIs putting him in elite company and on pace to break the Reds’ rookie RBI record. Elly De La Cruz thrives in the leadoff spot, hitting well and launching the Reds’ first leadoff homer of the season. But the team’s biggest hurdle remains their brutal record against National League opponents, far worse than their success against AL teams—a glaring inconsistency that could define their playoff chances.
