Julian Aguiar - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Shelved at Triple-A Triple-A Louisville placed Aguiar on its 7-day injured list April 9 due to an unspecified injury.

Impact Aguiar missed the entire 2025 season while recovering from Oct. 11, 2024 Tommy John surgery, but he received a clean bill of health coming into spring training. He secured a spot in Louisville's season-opening rotation and posted a 9.28 ERA, 1.88 WHIP and 12:8 K:BB in 102. innings over three starts before hitting the shelf. Aguiar owns a spot on the Reds' 40-man roster, but he's buried on the organization's starting pitching depth chart and has now been out of action for nearly a month, which makes it unlikely that he contributes to the big club anytime soon.

Sent to minor-league camp The Reds optioned Aguiar to minor-league camp Friday.

Impact Aguiar is back healthy after Tommy John surgery, but he was always a good bet to begin the season in the minors. The 24-year-old will begin the season in the rotation at Triple-A Louisville.

Roughed up Friday Aguiar allowed three runs on four hits and struck out two over two innings in Friday's spring game against the Angels.

Impact After starter Rhett Lowder breezed through three innings, Aguiar entered and did not fare as well. The latter was tagged for all three runs in the fourth inning and has allowed six hits and four runs over four Cactus League frames. Aguiar is nominally in the mix for the final rotation spot, but both of his main rivals, Lowder and Chase Burns, have performed better.

Returns from TJ surgery Aguiar allowed one run on two hits and one walk while striking out two over two innings in Saturday's spring game against the Guardians.

Impact Aguiar stepped on a big-league mound in a game setting for the first time since September of 2024 after undergoing Tommy John elbow surgery. He was the third of three starter candidates to pitch in the Cactus League opener. Chase Burns started the game followed by Rhett Lowder before Aguiar entered the contest. He threw 30 pitches (18 strikes) and used all the pitches in his arsenal. For those reading the tea leaves in this battle for the rotation, it should be noted that several of Cleveland's expected regulars were removed from the game by the time Aguiar entered in the fifth inning.

Competing for rotation spot Aguiar (elbow) is without restrictions in Reds camp and competing for the final spot in the rotation, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

Impact Aguiar missed the entire 2025 season after having Tommy John surgery in October 2024, but he's now 16 months removed from the operation and participating fully in camp. The 24-year-old is in the rotation mix for Cincinnati but is almost surely ticketed for Triple-A Louisville following a lost season. Aguiar made seven starts for the Reds in 2024, holding a 6.25 ERA and 19:12 K:BB over 31.2 innings.
