Reds' Brandon Williamson: Rehabbing at Triple-A Louisville
Rotowire
Williamson (shoulder) will make his next rehab start at Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.
Williamson, who began a rehab assignment last week with a two-inning outing for Double-A Chattanooga, will be making his third rehab start and second for Louisville. His first start for the Bats last Thursday did not go well; the left-hander was chased after just 32 pitches. He allowed four runs on two hits and two walks and committed a balk over two-thirds of an inning. The goal for Tuesday's start is to work up to 60 pitches.
Reds' Eugenio Suarez: Belts two-run homer Saturday
Rotowire
Suarez went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run during the Reds' 8-2 loss to the Nationals on Saturday.
The Reds were kept off the board through five innings, but Suarez ended the shutout in the sixth with a two-run long ball off Max Kranick. Suarez has homered in back-to-back games and is up to 16 long balls on the year, which puts him on pace to crack the 20-homer mark for a sixth consecutive regular season. He has a .688 OPS with 43 RBI and 29 extra-base hits over 339 plate appearances this season.

Reds' Chase Burns: Tagged for five runs in loss
Rotowire
Burns (13-2) took the loss against the Nationals on Saturday, allowing five runs on six hits and three walks while striking out six across 5.1 innings.
It looked like business as usual through five innings for Burns outside of a two-run single he gave up in the third. However, he allowed four of the five batters he faced in the sixth to reach and was tagged for three runs in the frame. It was the third time this season that Burns yielded five runs in a start, and he came away with his first loss since April 10 against the Angels. It has still been a stellar season for the 23-year-old right-hander, whose 13 wins is tied for third most in the majors. Burns will take a 2.61 ERA and 1.12 WHIP over 124 innings into his next start, which is lined up for next weekend at home against the Marlins.

Reds' Chase Petty: Moved back to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Reds optioned Petty to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Petty gave up three runs (two earned) in 1.2 innings while opening Friday's bullpen game, and he'll now end up as the odd man out of a roster spot to make room for Ron Marinaccio, who was claimed off waivers from Pittsburgh. Petty now owns a 4.83 ERA and 1.26 WHIP through 31.2 innings this season and could return to Cincinnati later in the year to provide fresh bullpen depth.

Reds' Luis Mey: Impressive in long relief
Rotowire
Mey gave up two hits and struck out four over 2.2 scoreless relief innings in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Nationals. He didn't walk a batter.
All the scoring had already occurred by the time Mey took the mound to begin fifth inning in a bullpen day for the Reds, but the 25-year-old right-hander did what he could to keep the door open for a potential comeback. It was Mey's first big-league action since June 5, and also the first time in eight MLB appearances this season that he didn't issue a free pass. Control remains his biggest hurdle to a more prominent role -- he's got an 18:10 K:BB in 11.1 innings for Cincinnati in 2026 -- but Mey's upper-90s sinker and wipeout slider give him a sky-high ceiling if things begin to click.
Rodriguez started in center field and went 1-for-4 with a double in Friday's 5-3 loss to Washington.
This was Rodriguez's third big-league game and first start in center field after he played right field in his debut Tuesday and served as the designated hitter Thursday. The move to center field worked out, as he was tested on a couple of plays. "He did OK," manager Terry Francona told Mark Sheldon of MLB.com. "That's a big ask [to play center field]. I told him, 'If you mess something up, I'll take it, not you.'" Rodriguez, who belted 27 home runs with an .880 OPS in the minors this season, potentially gives the Reds more offense than Dane Myers in center.

Reds' Elly De La Cruz: Joins 20-20 club again
Rotowire
De La Cruz went 1-for-2 wth two walks and a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Nationals.
De La Cruz hit the second of back-to-back home runs in the third inning to tie the game. It was his second consecutive game with a home run and 20th of the season. In doing so, De La Cruz posted a third consecutive season with at least 20 homers and 20 steals, becoming the third player in Reds history to achieve that distinction.
The Reds signed Emanuel to a minor-league contract Friday.
Emanuel has been pitching in independent ball since the beginning of last season, but he's latched on with the Reds and should report to Triple-A Louisville for the stretch run. The lefty holds a 4.58 ERA and 25:11 K:BB over 35.1 career innings at the big-league level.

Reds' Hunter Greene: Slated for another elbow surgery
Rotowire
Reds president of baseball operations Nick Krall said Friday that Greene has been diagnosed with a partial UCL tear in his right elbow and will undergo surgery next week, Brian Giesenschlag of Reds Live reports.
The exact nature of the procedure will not be known until the operation is performed. Greene previously had Tommy John surgery in 2019 and underwent surgery in March to have bone chips removed from his elbow. Even if Greene doesn't require another full Tommy John repair, he will be in danger of missing a large portion of the 2027 season. The 27-year-old made only five starts this year after being limited to 19 starts in 2025.

Reds' Chase Petty: Starting bullpen game
Rotowire
Petty will start for the Reds in Friday's bullpen game against the Nationals, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.
Petty has not started a game since early June and shouldn't be expected to cover more than three innings Friday. The right-hander has collected a 4.50 ERA and 14:8 K:BB over 30 innings covering 15 appearances (two starts) for the Reds this season.
Stewart went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Thursday's 6-5 win over the Athletics.
Stewart launched the first of two Cincinnati homers in the fourth inning to erase an Athletics lead. It was the 25th knock of the season for Stewart, who's gone deep six times and driven in 22 runs over 19 games since the All-Star break.
