  • Reds' Cam Collier: Making debut in big-league camp

    Collier received an invite to major-league spring training, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Collier, who turned 20 during the offseason, batted .248/.355/.443 with 20 home runs and 74 RBI over 119 games at High-A Dayton in 2024. There was variance in his monthly splits, and the left-handed batter had trouble against southpaws (.174/.283/.312), but Collier showed his raw power and ability to homer to all fields.

  • Reds' Sal Stewart: In MLB camp

    Stewart (wrist) will be part of major-league camp in spring training, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Stewart, the 32nd overall pick in the 2022 draft, batted .279/.391/.454 with eight home runs and 46 RBI over 80 games at High-A Dayton in 2024. A July wrist injury prematurely ended his season. An advanced approach at the dish is Stewart's calling card; he has nearly as many walks (138) as strikeouts (139) and owns a 15.7 career strikeout rate during his stay in the minors. Stewart split his time evenly between second and third base at Dayton and is expected to open this season at Double-A Chattanooga.

  • Reds' Edwin Rios: Back with Cincinnati on MiLB deal

    The Reds re-signed Rios to a minor-league contract Feb. 1.

    Rios went 1-for-10 at the plate during a brief stint with the Reds in 2024 but spent most of the year at Triple-A Louisville, where he slashed .286/.385/.547 with 22 homers in 99 games. He's likely headed back to Louisville to begin the 2025 season.

  • Reds' Connor Phillips: Strong finish to 2024

    Phillips recorded a 2.49 ERA while striking out 24 over 21.2 innings in his last five starts in 2024.

    Phillips, who made his major-league debut in 2023, was rocked at Triple-A Louisville last year. The Reds sent him to the Arizona Complex League in late June after 14 starts with a 10.11 ERA, 7.9 BB/9 and 2.4 HR/9 with the top affiliate. After a two-month reset in the desert, the 23-year-old right-hander returned to Louisville, where he finished strong. Phillips then pitched in the Arizona Fall League and, apart from one clunker, was effective. He needs to find the strike zone with more consistency -- he walked 14 batters in 19.1 innings in the AFL -- but he made adjustments and is trending in a positive direction again following the lowest point of his professional career.

  • Reds' P.J. Higgins: Sticking in Cincinnati

    Higgins signed a minor-league contract with the Reds on Monday.

    Higgins will remain with the Reds for the upcoming 2025 campaign after slashing .259/.319/.384 with 11 home runs, 70 RBI and 50 runs scored over 135 games a year ago at Triple-A Louisville. He'll presumably begin the year at Triple-A following a breakout season for Tyler Stephenson at the big-league level in 2024, though he could be in line for a promotion if either Stephenson or Jose Trevino fail to stay healthy.

  • Reds' Graham Ashcraft: Bullpen option?

    The Reds believe Ashcraft (elbow) could be a bullpen weapon, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Apparently, the Reds held this belief since Ashcraft was drafted, but starters are more valuable, and he had some success in that role initially. Cincinnati added to the rotation during the offseason, and if all are healthy, Ashcraft would be outside the rotation.

  • Reds' Will Benson: Reworks swing

    Benson reworked his swing during the offseason, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Benson needed to do something to become a more competitive option for the outfield in 2025. He batted .187 (.180 expected average) with a 39.7 strikeout percentage last year. Benson managed to provide some value with 16 steals, though finding playing time may be harder in this season. The Reds recently added outfielder Austin Hays and plan to move Matt McLain to center field; it will be hard for Benson to carve out a regular role with such a crowded mix in the outfield.

  • Reds' Casey Legumina: Designated for assignment

    The Reds designated Legumina for assignment Thursday.

    With Austin Hays officially signing with Cincinnati on Thursday, Legumina will end up as the odd man out of a roster spot. The 27-year-old righty allowed nine earned runs in just 9.1 big-league innings last season, but other teams may be willing to take a chance on him after he finished the Triple-A season with a 3.03 ERA and 1.05 WHIP over 62.1 frames.

  • Reds' Joe La Sorsa: Gets NRI pact with Cincinnati

    The Reds signed La Sorsa to a minor-league contract Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    The lefty reliever will receive $780,000 if in the majors. La Sorsa, 26, has posted a 4.47 ERA and 42:12 K:BB over 50.1 innings across parts of two seasons at the big-league level.

  • Reds' Albert Abreu: Inks NRI pact with Cincinnati

    The Reds signed Abreu to a minor-league contract Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

    Abreu, 29, spent this past season in Japan with the Saitama Seibu Lions, holding a 2.39 ERA and 33:20 K:BB over 49 innings. The right-handed reliever has collected a 4.58 ERA and 136:78 K:BB over 135.2 frames covering parts of four big-league seasons. He's likely headed to the Triple-A Louisville bullpen to begin the 2025 season.

  • Reds' Ian Gibaut: Back with CIN as NRI

    Gibaut signed a minor-league contract with the Reds on Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

    Gibaut missed the vast majority of 2024 due to forearm and calf injuries, and he was non-tendered by the Reds earlier this winter. The 31-year-old reliever owns a 3.77 ERA over 112.1 innings since joining the Reds in 2022, and he'll attempt to work his way back into Cincinnati's bullpen during spring training.

  • Reds' Owen White: Designated for assignment

    The Reds designated White for assignment Wednesday.

    The Reds needed to make room on the 40-man roster after acquiring Taylor Rogers from San Francisco on Wednesday, and White will end up as the odd man out. The 25-year-old righty spent most of last season with the Rangers' Triple-A affiliate, accumulating a 5.64 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across 99 innings. Regardless of whether he clears waivers or gets claimed by another organization, White will almost certainly head back to Triple-A to begin 2025.

  • Reds' Taylor Rogers: Traded to Cincinnati

    The Reds acquired Rogers and cash considerations from the Giants on Wednesday in exchange for Braxton Roxby, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

    Rogers' strikeout rate dipped to 25.7 percent in 2024, but he still had a very good season in collecting a 2.40 ERA and 64:22 K:BB over 60 innings. The left-hander instantly becomes the Reds' best left-handed setup man and a candidate to take over at closer if Alexis Diaz is unable to bounce back from his rough 2024 campaign.

  • Reds' Wade Miley: Inks MiLB deal with Cincinnati

    The Reds signed Miley (elbow) to a minor-league contract Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    He'll earn a prorated $2.5 million if in the majors, and he has a June 1 opt-out, per Bob Nightengale of USA Today. Miley underwent a hybrid UCL repair on his left elbow last May but is hoping to be ready to contribute at the major-league level by late April or early May of this season. The 38-year-old posted a 3.14 ERA and 1.14 WHIP over 120.1 innings with the Brewers in 2023, although that came with just 79 strikeouts. The Reds don't currently appear to have room for Miley in their rotation, but that could change by the time he's ready to pitch.

  • Reds' Austin Hays: Inks one-year pact with Cincinnati

    The Reds signed Hays to a one-year, $5 million contract Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

    He'll have an opportunity to earn an additional $1 million in incentives. Hays was limited to just 85 games between the Orioles and Phillies in 2024 due to a calf strain and a kidney infection, and he slashed a disappointing .255/.303/.396 when on the field. However, he had a career .751 OPS prior to last season, including a .779 OPS versus left-handers, so some level of rebound for the 29-year-old in 2025 is doable. Great American Ball Park is an ideal landing spot, although it's not clear whether the Reds intend to give Hays regular starts against righties in addition to lefties.
