Harrison Bader - Shut down for season Bader (groin) will not return this season, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Bader hit the injured list with a groin strain Monday, and the injury is evidently serious enough that he won't play again this season even if the Reds make a playoff run. He recorded a .429 OPS in 14 games with Cincinnati after being claimed off waivers from the Yankees, meaning he'll head into free agency having hit just .232/.274/.348 in his walk year.

Tejay Antone - Not expected back this season Antone (elbow) is not expected to return this season, even in the playoffs, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Manager David Bell did technically leave the door open by calling Antone's chances of a return "remote," but the writing seems to be on the wall for the righty. Antone returned from his second career Tommy John surgery at the start of September but made just five appearances before being shut down with elbow tendinitis.

Jake Fraley - On bench against lefty Fraley will sit against lefty Bailey Falter and the Pirates on Saturday.

Impact Fraley made just four starts against southpaws in the first half and has made none since the break. Given that he's a lifetime .149/.266/.216 hitter in 148 career plate appearances against lefties, he's unlikely to advance beyond a platoon role any time soon. Christian Encarnacion-Strand will get the start at designated hitter in Fraley's absence.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will Benson - Sits against southpaw Benson will be on the bench for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Benson's off day against lefty Bailey Falter means he's now been on the bench against nine consecutive southpaws. Stuart Fairchild will be Saturday's right fielder.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joey Votto - Day off Saturday Votto will sit Saturday against the Pirates.

Impact Votto will sit against lefty Bailey Falter, meaning he's now sat against three of the last four southpaws the Reds have faced. Spencer Steer will start at first base.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Matt McLain - In Triple-A for rehab-assignment McLain (oblique) was sent to Triple-A Louisville on a rehab-assignment Saturday.

Impact McLain remains on track to be activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday. The infielder had resumed taking batting practice earlier in the week as he nears the end of his recovery from a right oblique strain.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Elly De La Cruz - Steals two bags De La Cruz went 1-for-4 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Friday's 7-5 loss to Pittsburgh.

Impact De La Cruz's bat continues to slumber, but his legs refuse to take a break. Despite going 3-for-19 over the last seven games, the rookie stole five bases during that stretch. He's up to 31 steals through 91 games.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

T.J. Friedl - On base five times Friedl went 2-for-2 with three walks, a home run, two RBI, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Pirates.

Impact Friedl's two-run blast in the sixth inning gave Cincinnati its third one-run lead in the game, but the bullpen gave it back the next inning. The stolen base was Friedl's 25th and first one in 27 games.

Andrew Abbott - Fans seven in no-decision Abbott (8-5) did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over 4.1 innings in a 7-5 loss against the Pirates. He struck out seven.

Impact Abbott mostly cruised through the first three innings before serving up a solo homer to Ke'Bryan Hayes in the top of the fourth and an additional solo shot to Henry Davis in the top of the fifth. The rookie left-hander still managed to generate a lot of whiffs and will carry a respectable 3.70 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 119:44 K:BB into his final regular-season start next week at Cleveland.

Matt McLain - On track for Tuesday Manager David Bell said McLain (oblique) remains on track to be activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact McLain resumed taking batting practice earlier this week and is nearing the end of his recovery from the right oblique strain that has kept him on the shelf since late August. The 24-year-old infielder had delivered an impressive .290/.357/.507 slash line with 16 homers and 14 steals across his first 89 major-league games prior to suffering the injury.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jake Fraley - Not starting Friday Fraley isn't in the Reds' lineup Friday against the Pirates.

Impact Fraley will get a day off Friday after going 1-for-9 with two walks during the Reds' previous series with the Twins. Fraley's absence will allow Christian Encarnacion-Strand to step in as the DH while batting fourth.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tyler Stephenson - Sitting Friday Stephenson isn't in the Reds' lineup Friday against the Pirates.

Impact Stephenson is just 2-for-22 across his last six games, and his offensive woes will now cause him to miss his second start in a row. Luke Maile will start behind the plate Friday and bat ninth.
