Cincinnati Reds Fire Manager David Bell

News summary

The Cincinnati Reds announced the firing of manager David Bell after a disappointing 76-81 season, which left the team eliminated from playoff contention. Despite being given a contract extension through 2026 just a year prior, the Reds' president of baseball operations, Nick Krall, stated that a change was necessary to move forward and focus on 2025. Bell, who had a six-year record of 409-456, only led the team to the playoffs once during his tenure, in the COVID-shortened 2020 season. Bench coach Freddy Benavides will serve as interim manager for the final five games of the season. The Reds are now looking for a new manager to harness their promising young talent and improve their competitive standing in the NL Central. This managerial change reflects a critical moment for the franchise as they aim to rebuild and capitalize on their young core.
