The Best Cincinnati Reds player so far in the 2023 MLB season is...between three players. Matt McLain has played exceptionally well in all facets of the game, Alexis Díaz is as automatic a relief pitcher as they come, and TJ Friedl has made strides in centerfield and at the plate. The Reds have a lot of talent on the roster and it makes picking the beat player that much harder. Also, the Reds lineup hit the most home runs in a game so far this season to sweep the Kansas City Royals and why you should not be worried about Elly De La Cruz.
