Rece Hinds - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Sent back to Triple-A The Reds optioned Hinds to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

Impact After being promoted from Louisville on June 22, Hinds appeared in seven games for the Reds and went 2-for-23 with four runs scored. In a corresponding move, the Reds reinstated Connor Joe (illness) from the 10-day injured list, and he'll likely replace Hinds as a short-side platoon player in the corner outfield.

Back on bench vs. RHP Hinds is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Impact The right-handed-hitting Hinds was included in the lineup in four of the past five games while the Reds opposed right-handed starters on four occasions, but he'll be back on the bench Sunday while righty Zack Wheeler takes the hill for Philadelphia. Hinds looks as though he'll be limited to the short side of a platoon in right field with Will Benson until Jake Fraley (shoulder) returns from the injured list.

Makes third start in four games Hinds started in right field and went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 6-4 loss to San Diego.

Impact Hinds made his third start in the last four games, with the first two coming against left-handers and Saturday's against a righty. The Reds are coping with a few situations in the outfield, which factors into Hinds' usage. Austin Hays just returned from a significant foot injury, while both Connor Joe (illness) and Jake Fraley (shoulder) are on the 10-day injured list. Hinds is 2-for-11 with five strikeouts and two runs scored in his three starts.

Moves up from Triple-A The Reds recalled Hinds from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

Impact Hinds will be up with the Reds for the second time this season after he previously went 3-for-19 with a pair of home runs during a two-week stretch with the big club in May. He'll receive another look with the big club after getting off to a hot start to June at Louisville, slashing .381/.435/.683 with a palatable 21.7 percent strikeout rate so far this month. Expect the Reds to deploy Hinds mainly as a short-side platoon player in the corner outfield or at designated hitter.

Optioned to Triple-A The Reds optioned Hinds to Triple-A Louisville on Friday.

Impact While he popped two home runs, Hinds went just 3-for-19 with 10 strikeouts during his time with the big club. The Reds are replacing him with a player that has more versatility in Garrett Hampson.

Bops homer in win Hinds started in right field and went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-1 win over Cleveland.

Impact Hinds was added to the starting lineup when Gavin Lux was scratched due to back spams. The fill-in outfielder did what he does best: deliver an extra-base hit. Hinds has 15 hits in the majors over the last two years and 13 have gone for extra bases.

Continues to flash power potential Hinds went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, a double and a walk in Thursday's extra-inning loss to Atlanta.

Impact Making just his second appearance of the season so far, Hinds took Atlanta closer Raisel Iglesias deep for a go-ahead two-run homer in the ninth inning. Hinds has flashed plenty of slugging potential during his brief major-league career -- he's now slashing .269/.345/.750 with six big flies, five doubles and 13 RBI along with two stolen bases over 58 lifetime plate appearances -- but he's struggled to lock down a consistent spot on the Reds' roster. The right fielder should get a chance to carve out a stable role while Noelvi Marte (oblique) is on the injured list, but there's no guarantee Hinds will stick around with the big-league club once Marte is healthy.

Starts in right field Hinds started in right field and went 0-for-3 in Wednesday's 4-3 win over Atlanta.

Impact Hinds was recalled from Triple-A Louisville and started in right field for Jake Fraley (calf), who is day-to-day. The Reds have a couple of injuries in the outfield -- Austin Hays (hamstring) is also day-to-day -- so Hinds may get additional work in the next few days. He slashed .281/.343/.554 with eight home runs and 12 steals this season for Louisville.

Recalled from Triple-A The Reds recalled Hinds from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

Impact Hinds has slashed .281/.343/.554 with eight home runs and 12 steals this season with Louisville but has also struck out at a 29.7 percent clip. The right-handed hitting Hinds could see some action in the outfield versus lefties.

Cut from big-league camp The Reds optioned Hinds to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

Impact Hinds made waves last summer when he was called up from Triple-A in July and proceeded to hit five home runs in his first six big-league games, but he faded badly thereafter, slashing .042/.148/.083 with nine strikeouts in his final 27 plate appearances of the season with Cincinnati. Making consistent contact had remained an issue this spring for Hinds, who struck out in six of his 14 at-bats in Cactus League play. He should handle an everyday role in the outfield as he heads back to Louisville to begin the upcoming season, but Hinds likely need to refine his approach at the plate and cut down on strikeouts before garnering serious consideration for a promotion back to the majors.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Enters game due to injury Hinds entered Thursday's game after Will Benson (finger) was removed from a 6-1 loss to St. Louis.

Impact Benson was pulled after injuring his left middle finger during a bunt attempt in the sixth inning. Amed Rosario finished the at-bat, and Hinds entered to the play the field in the seventh. Hinds has just eight plate appearances (zero starts) since being called up in late August. Benson's X-rays came back negative, and there may not be an immediate need for Hinds to fill in.
