As the Cincinnati Reds prepare for the 2026 season, De La Cruz’s long-term future has once again become a major storyline, especially after a bold prediction from C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic placed him in unprecedented financial territory.

Tennessee cornerback Jermod McCoy got selected 10th overall, not Miami's Rueben Bain Jr, Clemson's Peter Woods, or Ohio State's Caleb Downs. McCoy did not play this past season due to injury, but is the 15th-best player on the consensus big board from Mock Draft Database and the second-best cornerback behind Mansoor Delane.

The extreme winter weather shelter in Over-the-Rhine will be open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. through Jan. 30, as temperatures are predicted to stay below freezing for at least the next six days.
