Reds outfielder Michael Toglia will undergo season-ending right shoulder surgery after a dislocated shoulder was diagnosed as a labrum tear, ending his MLB debut stint begun Aug. 11. He went 2-for-26 in 10 games following a strong Triple-A season, and Cincinnati could move him to the 60-day injured list to open a roster spot, with offseason roster questions including possible waivers or a minor-league contract.
Ketel Marte, who is on the 10-day injured list with left knee inflammation, reportedly spent about four hours at a casino Friday night while the Diamondbacks hosted the Reds and was a no-show for Arizona's 9-0 win. Manager Torey Lovullo said Marte is free to do what he wants as long as he resumes rehab duties, which included an earlier session at Salt River Fields; Marte had a meeting with Diamondbacks leadership, and his absence has prompted calls for explanation from teammates. With an IL stint looming, the club hopes minimal time on the injured list as Marte eyes a return in the final month.
Dane Myers dropped a routine fly ball with two outs in the ninth, letting the Cardinals rally to a 10-9 win and turning a late Reds lead into heartbreak in a chaotic bottom of the inning.
With Cincinnati leading 5-4 and two outs in the ninth, Dane Myers couldn’t glove a routine fly off J.J. Wetherholt, the ball deflecting for an error that allowed two runs to score and gave St. Louis the lead; the Cardinals added four more in the top of the inning, Reds answered with four in the bottom, and Matt McLain’s bases-loaded line drive to Jordan Walker ended it at 10-9. Myers took responsibility, citing sun and a prior discussion with Friedl about the gap, while Reds manager Terry Francona called it a simple misplay as Cincinnati fell to 61-67 and seven games out of the NL wild-card with about a month left.
Hunter Greene, once hailed as baseball’s next big thing and featured on Sports Illustrated’s cover, has announced a second Tommy John surgery that will sideline him for the rest of 2026 and all of 2027. After a strong 2024–25 showing—including an All-Star season and career-best numbers—recurrent injuries (groin issues, elbow problems) and a 2026 elbow surgery led to a difficult season, culminating in this latest procedure. The six-year, $53 million Reds deal in 2023 underscored expectations he would rebound, but his body’s fragility has turned a potential breakout into a cautionary tale about the road back from multiple major surgeries.
Hunter Greene is expected to miss the entire 2027 season after a revision of his Tommy John surgery, with a return window of 12-18 months. After bone chips were removed in spring 2026 and just five starts in 2026, the Reds will lean on Chase Burns and Andrew Abbott while Greene’s $15 million 2027 salary (and a $21 million club option for 2029) shapes the club’s finances in a low-spending year.
Cincinnati Reds pitcher Hunter Greene, 27, will undergo a second Tommy John surgery, ending his 2026 season and likely sidelining him through 2027 (with a potential return in 2028). Greene previously had TJ in 2019, and this season he posted a 6.83 ERA as injuries limited him to a small number of starts. The injury compounds a Reds rotation that already faces questions after not spending heavily on free agents, casting doubt on Greene’s long-term role as a cornerstone.
Cincinnati Reds ace Hunter Greene will miss the 2027 season after a second Tommy John surgery, capping a 2026 campaign in which he made five starts and posted a 6.83 ERA. A former 2024 All-Star who signed a six-year extension through 2028, Greene’s injury woes continue to derail his trajectory as Cincinnati battles in the NL Central.
The Chicago White Sox will give every fan a Pope hat and stage a Pope Leo XIV–themed night at Rate Field when they host the Cincinnati Reds, featuring on-field recognition by Catholic groups, performances by the ChiTown Popes, organist Nancy Faust, and a ceremonial first pitch by Sister Mary Jo Sobieck.
Inclement weather postponed the Reds-Nationals series opener with a start time to be determined. Cincinnati will employ a bullpen-style plan, with Chase Petty expected to work about two innings, while Cade Cavalli will start for the Nationals; the Reds have been strong in close games this season, and updates will be shared by Nationals via social media.
The Reds stood pat at the trade deadline, making only a few moves while critics argue Nick Krall’s ‘thread the needle’ approach preserves mediocrity and leaves the team with slim playoff hopes, raising questions about ownership pressure and Krall’s job security as the season winds down.
Cincinnati will promote 22-year-old Héctor Rodríguez from Triple-A Louisville to make his MLB debut in Tuesday’s series opener against the Athletics; Rodríguez slashed .274/.347/.533 with 27 home runs and 6 stolen bases over 455 PAs at Louisville and is viewed as a power-speed prospect who could become the Reds’ everyday left fielder down the stretch, with potential fantasy value in deeper leagues.
The Cincinnati Reds will promote 22-year-old outfield prospect Héctor Rodríguez to make his MLB debut, recalling him before the Opening against the Oakland A's. Rodríguez, Cincinnati's No. 3 prospect, has hit 27 homers with Triple-A Louisville and owns a .274/.347/.533 line in 455 plate appearances, and is expected to become an everyday right fielder, potentially pushing Noelvi Marte to a bench role after arriving in the 2022 trade for Tyler Naquin.
The Cleveland Guardians acquired Nathaniel Lowe from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for Lake County right-hander Alejandro Rivera, adding a left-handed bat who is expected to platoon at DH with Rhys Hoskins and spell first base. Lowe is a rental for Cleveland; this year he’s posted a 120 wRC+ (137 vs RHP, -52 vs LHP) with career splits of 103 vs LHP and 123 vs RHP, shaping a lineup that leans on him at DH against right-handers and mixes in other options against lefties.
In a seller-friendly move, the Reds have reportedly told teams Hunter Greene is no longer available, signaling a possible deadline trade despite ongoing interest from multiple clubs. Greene’s high strikeout upside and affordable contract make him an attractive, controllable starter, though health and workload concerns linger. While several outlets have floated real trade chatter, any deal will hinge on the Reds receiving MLB-ready talent in return, with Elly De La Cruz among potential assets; if no compelling package emerges, Cincinnati could opt to keep Greene to solidify a rotation built around Burns and Abbott.
