MLB Spring Training Buzz: Cincinnati Reds Ace Hunter Greene Out Until July

Hunter Greene - Likely out until July Greene is scheduled to have bone chips removed from his right elbow Wednesday and is expected to be out until July, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Manager Terry Francona revealed last week that Green was headed for an MRI due to elbow issue, which date back to his final starts of last season. Green avoided damage to his UCL, but the bone chips will end up sidelining him for at least half the season. The 26-year-old was limited to 19 starts during the 2025 regular season due to groin issues, and he'll have a limited workload again in 2026.

Rhett Lowder - Greeted roughly Monday Lowder allowed five runs (three earned) on seven hits while striking out four over 3.2 innings in Monday's spring start against the Athletics.

Impact The Athletics jumped on Lowder for four runs and four hits in the first inning, when the right-hander expended 26 pitches. He told Mark Sheldon of MLB.com that catcher Tyler Stephenson's mound visit helped turn him around. In three Cactus League outings (two starts), Lowder has a 4.15 ERA with 11 strikeouts and two walks over 8.2 innings. He remains in competition with Chase Burns and Brandon Williamson for the final two spots in the rotation.

Chase Petty - Cut from major-league camp The Reds optioned Petty to minor-league camp Monday.

Impact Petty was unscored upon in two Cactus League outings, collecting a 2:2 K:BB over four innings. There's no room in the Reds' rotation for the young right-hander, but Petty should play a role with the big club at some point this summer.

Christian Encarnacion-Strand - Moved to minor-league camp The Reds optioned Encarnacion-Strand to minor-league camp Monday.

Impact Encarnacion-Strand entered spring training looking like a long shot to make the team, and coming to camp with a hamstring injury didn't help his chances. He's healthy now but will begin the season at Triple-A Louisville.

Will Benson - Legs out homer Benson went 1-for-4 with a two-run, inside-the-park home run in Sunday's spring game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Benson legged out what looked like a garden-variety double down the line in right field, but he was able to touch all the bases when the ball got behind the outfielder. It was the third home run of the spring for Benson, who is locked in a battle with Rece Hinds and JJ Bleday for a depth spot in the outfield. Reds manager Terry Francona may want an extra left-handed bat, which would eliminate Hinds. All three outfielders have minor-league options remaining.

Brady Singer - Better results second time out Singer allowed two hits and two walks while striking out three over three scoreless innings in Sunday's spring start against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Singer had better results in his second Cactus League start but needed 58 pitches (33 strikes, four swing-and-misses) to get those nine outs. The results were better than his spring debut, when Singer was tagged for five runs and seven hits, but the right-hander had a similar issue with balls landing outside the zone. He managed to escape a pair of jams in the first and second innings before retiring the side in order in the third frame.

Blake Dunn - Sidelined with knee strain Reds manager Terry Francona said Sunday that Dunn is day-to-day with a low-grade knee strain, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Impact The injury is expected to keep Dunn out of the Reds' Cactus League lineups for a few days, but the outfielder doesn't appear to be at any major risk of missing the start of the season. The missed game action could prove costly to Dunn in his battle for a reserve job in the Reds' Opening Day outfield, however.

Andrew Abbott - Named Opening Day starter The Reds announced Sunday that Abbott will start Opening Day against the Red Sox on March 26.

Impact The left-hander had a breakout 2025 campaign, during which he posted a 2.87 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 149:43 K:BB across 166.1 innings during the regular season. He was always in the mix to start Opening Day, but Hunter Greene's elbow issues left Abbott as the obvious answer to take the ball first for Cincinnati in 2026.
