Harrison Bader - Sitting against righty Bader is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Mariners.

Impact Bader was added to the lineup Tuesday versus a right-hander after Hunter Renfroe (hamstring) had to be scratched, but the 29-year-old went 0-for-4 and will head back to the bench Wednesday even as Renfroe remains sidelined. Bader should continue to draw most of his starts against southpaws. It'll be another righty in Logan Gilbert taking the mound for Seattle on Wednesday at Great American Ball Park.

Alex Young - Begins rehab assignment Young (hamstring) is set to begin a rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Louisville.

Impact Young landed on the 15-day injured list Aug. 26 due to left hamstring tightness, but the 29-year-old southpaw appears on track to be activated when first eligible this weekend. He's delivered a solid 3.31 ERA and 45:19 K:BB through 49 innings of relief for the Reds in 2023.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hunter Renfroe - Remains out of lineup Renfroe (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup Wednesday against the Mariners.

Impact Renfroe drew a walk as a pinch hitter in the Reds' win over the Mariners on Tuesday, but he's not quite a full-go due to lingering left hamstring tightness. Nick Martini, TJ Friedl and Will Benson will start across the outfield Wednesday as Jake Fraley fills the DH role.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Casey Legumina - Sent back to Triple-A Cincinnati optioned Legumina to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

Impact Legumina worked a scoreless inning of relief in the Reds' win over the Mariners on Tuesday, but he carries a rough 5.68 ERA, 1.97 WHIP and 11:9 K:BB in 12.2 major-league innings this season. Lyon Richardson was recalled in a corresponding roster move and will get the start in Wednesday's series finale versus Seattle.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Lyon Richardson - Recalled for start Wednesday Cincinnati recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday versus the Mariners.

Impact Richardson is enjoying a breakout 2023 season in the minors, but the 23-year-old right-hander has surrendered nine earned runs on 10 hits and 11 walks through his first three major-league starts covering just 12 innings. He's a risky fantasy streamer against Seattle.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jonathan India - Rehab could begin Friday India (foot) could begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville on Sept. 8, if he continues on a positive path, MLB.com reports.

Impact India's foot is pain free, but the Reds are taking a deliberate approach in building up the infielder to avoid a setback that could end his season prematurely. If he begins the rehab assignment as hoped for Sept. 8, then a return to the majors Sept. 12 is possible.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hunter Greene - Flying back to Cincinatti Greene (illness) was scheduled to fly from San Francisco to Cincinnati on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Impact Greene landed on the COVID-19 list after his last start while the Reds were in San Francisco. The team will see if he's fit to pitch, but the hope is that Greene can return for the weekend series at home against the Cardinals.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nick Martini - Provides key hit Martini entered as a pinch hitter and hit a three-run home run in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Mariners.

Impact Martini's three-run shot in the bottom of the eighth inning tied the game before Christian Encarnacion-Strand ended matters in the ninth. The home run was Martini's fourth in 46 plate appearances since the Reds added him to the roster in August. Prior to his stint with Cincinnati, the 33-year-old had just two homers in 333 PAs in the majors. Martini, who had an .874 OPS at Triple-A Louisville, was overlooked several times earlier this season as the club called up its younger prospects, but he may have had the biggest hit in the Reds' improbable season.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Elly De La Cruz - Speed helps in win De La Cruz went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-6 win over Seattle.

Impact De La Cruz scored the game-winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Having been thrown out attempting to steal earlier in the game, the speedy and confident De La Cruz reached base on an infield single then stole second base. From there, he came in on Christian Encarnacion-Strand's walk-off single. The steal was De La Cruz's 25th in 32 attempts while in the majors. Including the minors, he's swiped 36 bags (caught 13 times).

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hunter Renfroe - Enters as pinch hitter Renfroe (hamstring) entered as a pinch hitter and walked in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Mariners.

Impact Renfroe was a late scratch for the Reds but managed to give the team a plate appearance. After walking in the sixth inning, Renfroe was replaced by pinch runner Stuart Fairchild.

Christian Encarnacion-Strand - Homers in three-hit performance Encarnacion-Strand went 3-for-5 with a solo homer, an additional RBI and an additional run scored in Tuesday's walk-off victory over the Mariners.

Impact Encarnacion-Strand blasted a no-doubt solo shot to cut Seattle's lead to 5-2 in the sixth and then delivered a walk-off RBI single in the ninth to complete the improbable comeback. After a somewhat slow start to his big-league career, the 23-year-old rookie has gone 11-for-26 (.423) in his last seven contests with three doubles, two home runs, five RBI and three runs across 26 at-bats during that stretch.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Noelvi Marte - 3-for-3 with first big-league homer Marte went 3-for-3 with a double, a solo homer and an additional run scored in Tuesday's comeback win over Seattle.

Impact Marte logged the first three-hit performance of his young career Tuesday, reaching on an infield single in the third inning, notching a hustle double in the fifth and blasting his first big-league home run in the sixth. The highly anticipated rookie is now hitting .255 with five doubles, one home run, seven RBI, six runs and five steals across his first 17 games (62 plate appearances).

SEPTEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Connor Phillips - Five earned runs in MLB debut Phillips did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing five runs on six hits and two walks over 4.2 innings against the Mariners. He struck out seven.

Impact The 22-year-old served up a two-run homer to Teoscar Hernandez in the first inning and a three-run blast to Julio Rodriguez in the fifth. Despite exiting the game with a 5-1 deficit, Phillips was able to avoid taking a loss in his big-league debut thanks to Cincinnati's late rally. It remains to be seen whether the right-handed rookie will draw another start for the Reds while 60 percent of their starting rotation is currently on the COVID-19 injured list.
