New manager

On October 4th, the Reds hired Terry Francona as their manager, announcing that they agreed on a three-year contract with a club option for the 2028 season.

Francona joins the Reds and has a lifetime record of 1950–1672 over a 23-year career. Francona managed with the Philadelphia Phillies from 1997–2000, the Boston Red Sox from 2004–2011 and the Cleveland Indians / Guardians from 2013–2023. He led the Red Sox to two World Series titles, winning in 2004 and 2007. Francona is also the winningest manager in Cleveland history, earning a record of 921–757 with six post-season appearances in 11 years. He won the American League Manager of the Year award in 2013, 2016 and 2022 with the Indians/Guardians.

Francona also had a 10-year playing career and played the 1987 season with the Reds. In 102 games with Cincinnati, Francona hit .227 with three home runs and 12 RBI in 102 games. In his career, he batted .274 with 16 home runs and 143 RBI and in addition to playing with the Reds, Francona played with the Montreal Expos, Chicago Cubs, Cleveland Indians and Milwaukee Brewers.

Uniform Modifications

On February 10th, the Reds announced that they would add #14 patches to their uniforms throughout the entire season as a way to honor the late Pete Rose, a Cincinnati native who played for 19 seasons with the Reds. Rose died on September 30th, 2024 at the age of 83. [2]
