It hasn't been a pretty ending to what could be just the second 100-loss season in franchise history for the Cincinnati Reds.

The Reds (60-99), who host the Chicago Cubs in a three-game, season-ending series beginning Monday night, have lost six straight contests and are only 4-19 over their last 23 games. They have scored just 18 runs in their last 10 games.

But one bright spot has the been the performance of Monday night's starter, right-hander Hunter Greene.

The 6-foot-5, 230-pound Greene, who was the No. 2 overall pick of the 2017 MLB Draft, carries just a 4-13 record and 4.66 ERA into the 24th start of his rookie season. But his statistics in his three starts since returning from a six-week stint on the injured list with a right shoulder strain have been very promising.

Greene has allowed just 10 hits and six walks in 17 innings since his return, with an eye-popping 29 strikeouts and a 1.06 ERA. His 11.73 strikeouts per nine innings this season is the highest by a Reds starting pitcher (minimum 15 starts) in franchise history.

Dana’s Pick Over: 7.5 -105
