If Reds pull off shocking turnaround in 2027, it might look like this

Cincinnati Reds left-handers Brandon Williamson and Andrew Abbott combined for 13 IP and 2 runs allowed vs. the playoff-bound Braves the last 2 games.

Brandon Williamson and Andrew Abbott displayed promising performances for the Cincinnati Reds this week, signaling potential for a turnaround in the 2027 season. Williamson, who has been dealing with injuries, pitched six scoreless innings in a series-opening win, showcasing the improvement he has made over the past year. Abbott, a first-time All-Star last year, pitched seven innings for the first time this season, securing a win despite giving up a home run and a leadoff homer.

Both pitchers, along with other left-handed starters, could play significant roles in the Reds' rotation if they maintain their current form. If this is a glimpse into the team's 2027 performance, it could help address many of the issues that led to a disappointing season in 2026.
