Aristides Aquino - Page 4 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Out at least one month Aquino is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks with an ankle injury, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Aquino landed on the 10-day injured list Monday with a strained left calf, but the injury has since been clarified as an ankle issue. The 28-year-old had an .810 OPS through nine games in June but may now be unavailable until after the All-Star break.

Reds face the Diamondbacks leading series 1-0

The Cincinnati Reds bring a 1-0 advantage into the next game of the series against the Arizona Diamondbacks

Moved to injured list Aquino (calf) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday.

Impact Aquino was scratched from the starting lineup earlier in the day after the team revealed he suffered a left calf strain during Sunday's matchup, and he's since been placed on the 10-day IL. Jonathan India (hamstring) was reinstated from the injured list in a corresponding move. TJ Friedl figures to be a candidate for more at-bats while Aquino is on the mend.

Scratched from starting nine Aquino is no longer listed in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Arizona due to a calf strain, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Aquino was removed from Sunday's series finale with the Cardinals due to an undisclosed injury, and he has since been diagnosed with a calf strain. He'll be considered day-to-day until the severity of the injury becomes more clear.

Leaves with injury Aquino left Sunday's game against St. Louis with an apparent injury, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact The exact nature of Aquino's injury is unclear, though it appeared to happen during an awkward slide at home plate. Albert Almora and TJ Friedl could spend more time in right field if he's forced to hit the injured list.

Retreats to bench Aquino isn't starting Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Aquino started in the last three games and went 3-for-9 with a double, two runs, a walk and four strikeouts. Albert Almora will serve as the designated hitter while TJ Friedl starts in right field.

JUNE 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Draws third straight start Aquino will start in right field and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact With Mike Moustakas (illness) heading to the COVID-19-related injured list Monday, Aquino looks like he'll be the primary beneficiary of increased playing time. He'll stick in the lineup for the third straight game after going 2-for-5 at the dish between his previous two starts.

Two hits and stolen base in loss Aquino went 2-for-3 with one run scored and one steal in Wednesday's loss to Boston.

Impact Aquino recorded his third multi-hit game and his second steal. The right-handed slugger has seven hits across his last 26 at-bats, but he's slashing just .134/.299/.458 on the season.

JUNE 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Enters lineup for Pham Aquino will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Aquino was initially scheduled to receive Wednesday off, but he'll end up making his fifth start in seven games after fellow outfielder Tommy Pham (calf) was scratched from the lineup for the second day in a row. The Reds also placed Tyler Naquin (quadriceps) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday, but Albert Almora appears to be the better bet to replace Naquin as a regular in the Cincinnati outfield. Unless Pham joins Naquin on the IL, Aquino and TJ Friedl may have to settle for fourth and fifth outfielder duties behind Pham, Nick Senzel and Almora.

Back on bench versus righty Aquino is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Due to fellow outfielder Tommy Pham recently being handed a three-game suspension as well as the fact that the Reds faced left-handed starters in each of the past three contests, Aquino had picked up four consecutive starts. However, with right-hander Alex Cobb on the hill for San Francisco in the series finale, Aquino will take a seat in favor of the lefty-hitting Tyler Naquin, who should occupy the larger side of a platoon in right field.

Goes deep twice Aquino went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Cubs.

Impact Aquino tagged Drew Smyly with a two-run shot in the sixth before going deep off Chris Martin in the eighth. He started the year in a 2-for-41 slump before spending a few weeks with Triple-A Louisville but he's now gone 4-for-8 with three extra-base hits over the last two days. Aquino has shown some exciting flashes but they've been few and far between over the last three years.

Contract selected Aquino's contract was selected by the Reds on Monday.

Impact Aquino was sent to the minors when four Reds returned from the restricted list earlier in the day, but he's back again just hours later with TJ Friedl optioned to Triple-A Louisville. He remains an unappealing fantasy option unless he turns things around dramatically at the plate, however, as he's hitting .089/.128/.178 with a 51.1 percent strikeout rate through 16 games.

MAY 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returned to Triple-A The Reds returned Aquino to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

Impact Aquino was called up Friday to fill an open roster spot after the Reds placed four players on the restricted list ahead of their three-game series in Toronto. He made the most of his opportunity in his lone start during the series, going 2-for-4 with a two-run double and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Blue Jays. He'll now return to Louisville and look to earn another call-up later this summer, though he no longer possesses a spot on the 40-man roster.

MAY 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Steals base, drives in two Aquino went 2-for-4 with a two-run double and a stolen base in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Making his first MLB appearance since April 29, Aquino gave the Reds an early lead with his two-run, ground-rule double in the first inning. He later singled and stole his first base of the year in the sixth. The 28-year-old owns a brutal .089/.128/.178 slash line through 47 plate appearances this season.

Back with big-league club Aquino had his contract selected by the Reds on Friday.

Impact The 28-year-old has been with Triple-A Louisville since being designated for assignment three weeks ago, but he'll rejoin the Reds this weekend in Toronto with four players unable to travel and landing on the restricted list. Aquino has a .215 OPS and 53.5 percent strikeout rate in 43 plate appearances this year, so he'll likely head back to the minors after the trip to Canada.

MAY 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Outrighted to Triple-A Aquino cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Impact Aquino was designated for assignment by the Reds last weekend after hitting .049 with a homer, three runs and two RBI in 15 major-league games this year. The 28-year-old has displayed decent power in the past and will attempt to right the ship with the Triple-A club.
