Sitting Thursday France isn't in the Reds' lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins.

Impact France will get a breather Thursday after going 6-for-26 with two homers through his first seven games as a Red. Spencer Steer will get the starting nod at first base instead while Will Benson covers left field.

Homers in win France went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-2 win over Miami.

Impact France answered the Marlins' two-run bottom of the fourth inning with a leadoff homer in the fifth. It was the second home run in as many games for France, who made a fifth consecutive start at first base. It appears he's settling in as the club's primary first baseman, regardless of which starter is on the mount. During his five-start run, the first three were against left-handers while the last two against righties.

Connects first homer with Reds France went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 10-3 win over the Marlins.

Impact France was part of the Reds onslaught against the Marlins on Monday, blasting one of four homers by the group. It was his first homer as a member of the Reds in his fifth game since joining them. The veteran was designated for assignment by Seattle after managing a .662 OPS through 88 games and was 1-for-12 thus far in Cincinnati, so today's showing was a welcome sight.

Draws fourth straight start France will start at first base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Giants.

Impact France will make a fourth consecutive start at first base, though he'll be facing off against a right-hander (Logan Webb) on Monday after his previous three starts came versus lefties. He's gotten off to a slow start to his time with the Reds, recording just one hit in 12 at-bats. While France looks fairly secure as the Reds' primary first baseman against left-handed pitching, his spot in the lineup versus righties might be on shakier ground. He could lose work against righties once the lefty-hitting Will Benson (personal) is reinstated from the paternity list.

Make first start for new team France started at first base and went 0-for-3 in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Giants.

Impact France made his first start for the Reds since he was acquired earlier in the week. With Christian Encarnacion-Strand (wrist) done for the season, first base has become a rotation involving Jeimer Candelario, Spencer Steer and France.

Makes debut for Reds France entered Wednesday's game in the eighth inning and went 0-for-1 in a 13-4 loss to the Cubs.

Impact France made his debut for the Reds, playing the final two innings at first base. He was acquired by the Reds on Monday, presumably to be a starter at first base, but he was not used Tuesday or Wednesday despite being in the team's dugout. Cincinnati returns to action Friday against the Giants.

JULY 29, 2024 • MLB.COM

Lands in Cincinnati The Reds acquired France and cash considerations from the Mariners on Monday in exchange for Andruw Salcedo.

Impact France had been designated for assignment by Seattle after managing just a .662 OPS through 88 games. However, he's landed in about as good of a situation as possible with Great American Ball Park as his new home and regular at-bats seemingly available. France is under team control for 2025, as well, but even if he finishes strong he'll be a non-tender candidate.

JULY 23, 2024 • SI.COM

Clears waivers, outrighted France cleared waivers Tuesday and was outrighted off the roster, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Impact France was placed on waivers Sunday and went unclaimed. He'll now have the option to accept an outright assignment to the Mariners' Triple-A affiliate or decline the assignment and elect free agency. Although France is having a down year, he has a strong track record of being a starting caliber first baseman and should warrant plenty of interest if he hits the open market.

Placed on waivers France was placed on irrevocable outright waivers by the Mariners on Sunday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact France will now be able to be claimed by the 29 other teams in the league and if he goes unclaimed, the team can option him to the minor leagues. That being said, France has the option to decline reporting to the minors as a result of his MLB service time. Additionally, there's a possibility that he clears waivers and remains with the major-league roster, something that the Blue Jays did with Kevin Kiermaier earlier in July. France has produced a disappointing .223 average with eight home runs, 31 RBI and 28 runs scored over 300 at-bats in 88 games with Seattle so far this season.

Impact Mariners manager Scott Servais will give France an early head start on the All-Star break after the 30-year-old had started each of the last six games while going 6-for-25 with three doubles, two RBI and one run. Luke Raley will fill in for France at first base.

Willie Calhoun hits 2nd homer of the night in 10th inning, walking off Angels' 6-5 win over Mariners

Willie Calhoun hit a two-run, walk-off homer in the 10th inning, sending the Los Angeles Angels to a 6-5 victory over the Seattle Mariners

JULY 13, 2024 • Associated Press

Multi-hit effort in win France went 2-for-5 with an RBI fielder's choice, a double and a run in a win over the Angels on Thursday.

Impact France drove home the second of the Mariners' 11 runs in the first inning and eventually came around to score on Jorge Polanco's single later in the frame. France has now hit safely in four straight games and reached in nine of his last 10 contests overall, but walks and singles continue to be his primary calling card -- the veteran has just three extra-base hits over the 86 plate appearances he's logged since returning from the injured list June 18.
