Reds' Carson Spiers: Goes 3.2 scoreless in rehab start
Spiers (shoulder) struck out five and gave up one hit and four walks over 3.2 scoreless innings in his rehab start for Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
Though Spiers kept Columbus off the board during his start, he spotted just 39 of his 72 pitches for strikes in the outing, which was the third of his rehab assignment. On the shelf since April 20 due to a right shoulder impingement, Spiers appears to be close to fully stretched out at this point, but the Reds don't seem to have an opening for him in the big-league rotation. Spiers could be activated from the 60-day injured list coming out of the All-Star break to serve as a long-relief option for the big club, or the Reds could option him to Triple-A if they want to keep him in a starting role.

Reds' Eli Pitts: Drafted by Cincy
The Reds have selected Pitts with the 145th overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.
A high school outfielder from Georgia, Pitts is a plus runner with a chance to stick in center field. He has notable bat speed but is currently hit-over-power.

Reds' Mason Neville: Lands with Cincinnati
The Reds selected Neville with the 114th overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.
The 6-foot-3 Neville bats left-handed and has several above-average to plus tools, including plus power to all fields and above-average speed, but it's not clear if he'll hit enough to play regularly in the big leagues. Neville struck out 60.6 percent of the time as a freshman at Arkansas and transferred to Oregon, where he struck out 33.5 percent of the time as a sophomore. This year, he was much better, which should be the case for a third-year player. Neville slashed .290/.429/.724 with 26 home runs, nine steals and a 23.6 percent strikeout rate, although he still has issues with offspeed stuff and wasn't facing the stiffest competition in the Big Ten. Part of Neville's appeal is that he should provide average or better defense in center field and he could be a plus defender if he has to move to right field, thanks to an above-average arm.

Reds' Mason Morris: Drafted by Reds
The Reds have selected Morris with the 83rd overall pick of the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.
A three-year reliever at Ole Miss, the Reds may look to stretch out Morris, who has a nasty low-90s cutter and touches 99 mph with his fastball. Morris logged a 3.29 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 78 strikeouts in 54.2 inning across 19 appearances this spring.

Reds' Aaron Watson: Drafted in second round
The Reds have selected Watson with the 51st overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.
Watson might be safer than the typical prep righty, as he has a great feel for pitching, a simple, repeatable delivery and his fastball only sits in the low 90s at the time of the draft. The 6-foot-5, 205-pound hurler from Florida has improved his stock, with his fastball touching 96 mph this spring and his slider emerging as his go-to breaking ball. He hasn't needed his changeup much, but Watson's advanced pitchability and command of his full arsenal suggest he'll have the aptitude to excel with pro instruction. He could be wielding a mid-90s fastball that can tick up even higher on occasion within a couple of years.

Reds' Steele Hall: Heading to Cincy
The Reds have selected Hall with the ninth overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.
Hall is one of the younger players in the class after reclassifying, as he turns 18 a couple weeks after the draft. A no-doubt shortstop from Alabama, the 6-foot Hall is a great athlete with 70-grade speed and the actions to stick at the six. The quality of his hit tool and future power are tougher to project, but he's added 15-20 pounds of muscle this year and has a chance to be a 20-homer hitter at peak. Hall has great bat speed but struggles a bit with secondary stuff, which isn't uncommon for a player his age. His speed gives him a very high ceiling if he can max out as a hitter, and his defense gives him a chance to be an everyday player who hits near the bottom of the order even if he's not much of an offensive producer.

Reds' Emilio Pagan: Locks down 20th save
Pagan picked up the save Sunday, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning to close out the 4-2 win over the Rockies.
Pagan made quick work of Colorado in the final frame, needing only 14 pitches to retire the side in order and lock down his 20th save of the season. The veteran right-hander has now converted 20 of 23 save chances and has been especially effective lately, allowing only two earned runs over his last 15 appearances. Pagan continues to provide stability for Cincinnati while keeping his role as the team's preferred closer firmly intact.

Reds' Nick Martinez: Bounces back with strong start
Martinez (7-9) earned the win Sunday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk over 5.1 innings while striking out three in a 4-2 victory over the Rockies.
Coming off his worst start of the season, Martinez rebounded with a more composed outing Sunday, retiring the first six Rockies he faced before allowing both his runs on a Mickey Moniak single in the third. Martinez managed to work into the sixth, where he departed after allowing a pair of baserunners. With this bounce-back performance, the right-hander now holds a 4.78 ERA, 1.21 WHIP with 76 strikeouts over 111 innings this season.

Reds' TJ Friedl: Finds power stroke during win
Friedl went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, two additional runs scored and a walk in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rockies.
Friedl filled up the box score in a much-needed strong showing, opening the scoring with a leadoff home run, his first long ball since June 13. The 29-year-old had been quiet at the plate this month, entering Sunday just 7-for-38 (.184) with one RBI in the month of July. Despite the slump, Friedl remains locked into the top of Cincinnati's lineup and could carry momentum into the second half of the season after Sunday's encouraging performance.

Reds' Will Benson: On bench against southpaw
Benson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
After starting in each of the Reds' last eight games, Benson will take a seat against southpaw Austin Gomber. Though Benson has been holding down a strong-side platoon role since the middle of May, he could be in danger of losing playing time versus righties after the Reds activated Jake Fraley from the injured list Saturday. Benson got the nod in right field Saturday over Fraley against Rockies righty Bradley Blalock, going 1-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and a run.

Reds' Gavin Lux: Idle against southpaw
Lux is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
With southpaw Austin Gomber on the mound for Colorado, the left-handed-hitting Lux will take a seat after he started in each of the Reds' last seven games. Lux will give up his spot in the lineup to Santiago Espinal, who starts at third base while Noelvi Marte serves as the Reds' designated hitter.

Reds' Jake Fraley: Draws walk in return
Fraley (shoulder) drew a walk as a pinch hitter in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rockies.
Though the Reds faced a right-handed starter (Bradley Blalock) on Saturday, the left-handed-hitting Fraley wasn't included in the lineup in his first game back from the 10-day injured list. Instead of Fraley, the Reds went with another left-handed hitter in Will Benson in right field. The Reds face lefty Austin Gomber on Sunday, and manager Terry Francona could go with the right-handed-hitting Connor Joe in right field over Fraley and Benson.

Reds' Will Benson: Records triple Saturday
Benson started in right field and went 1-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rockies.
Benson's triple drove in a run, and he then scored the game-winning run in the bottom of the ninth of Cincinnati's walk-off win. He remained in the starting nine against a right-hander (Bradley Blalock), despite the return of Jake Fraley (shoulder), who was activated off the injured list Saturday. Fraley has traditionally started against righties when healthy, and he could eventually overtake Benson as the Reds' preferred option at the position.

Reds' Brady Singer: Fans nine in no-decision
Singer did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk over 6.1 innings against the Rockies. He struck out nine.
Singer worked around plenty of traffic Saturday but limited the damage to three runs before exiting. The right-hander has been serviceable, though unspectacular, in his first season with the Reds, carrying a 4.32 ERA and 1.35 WHIP across 100 innings in 19 starts.

Reds' Sal Stewart: Moving to Triple-A
The Reds are promoting Stewart to Triple-A Louisville, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Stewart will move one step closer to the majors after shining in Double-A ball, posting a .306/.377.473 slash line with 10 homers, 44 RBI, 51 runs and 13 stolen bases over 80 games. The 21-year-old also continued to show an excellent eye at the plate with a 15.5 percent strikeout rate. If Stewart continues to hit well with Louisville, he could get his first call-up to the majors later this season.

Reds' Tyler Stephenson: Sitting out Saturday
Stephenson is not in Saturday's lineup against the Rockies.
Stephenson continues to alternate starts with Jose Trevino, with this being Stephenson's third absence in the last seven games. Trevino will hit eighth in the order Saturday.

Reds' Christian Encarnacion-Strand: Demoted to minors
The Reds optioned Encarnacion-Strand to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Encarnacion-Strand has seen his playing time dwindle over the past several days, and Jake Fraley's (shoulder) return from the IL will now leave the former without a spot on the active roster. The 25-year-old Encarnacion-Strand has slashed .208/.234/.377 across 137 plate appearances this season.
