Brett Kennedy - Pitches well in spot start Kennedy permitted just three hits and one walk over five shutout frames Friday, taking a no-decision against the Blue Jays. He struck out two.
Impact Kennedy dealt with a little traffic early, as the Jays had multiple chances with runners in scoring position in the first three innings but failed to come through. The right-hander retired the side in order in the fourth and fifth before being pulled. Kennedy might be headed back to the minors if the Reds decide Nick Lodolo (tibia) is ready next week.

Nick Lodolo - Aces second rehab start Lodolo (tibia) struck out six over three scoreless innings while making his second rehab start Tuesday at Double-A Chattanooga. He allowed no hits and walked two in the 49-pitch ap...
Impact Lodolo has now allowed just one hit while striking out 10 across five innings through two rehab starts, the first of which came last week in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. The southpaw took the hill Tuesday on three days' rest, but he'll receive the standard four days off before making his next start Sunday at Triple-A Louisville, per MLB.com. If Lodolo is able to build up his pitch count into the 60-to-75 range Sunday and escapes the outing unscathed, he could return from the 60-day injured list to make his next start with the Reds during the team's series in Arizona the following weekend.

Chasen Shreve - Lands with Reds on minors deal Shreve signed a minor-league contract with the Reds on Thursday.
Impact Shreve was cut loose by the Tigers last week after posting a 4.79 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 42:12 K:BB through 41.1 innings. He'll report to Triple-A Louisville for now but could get a shot for the Reds down the stretch.

Brett Kennedy - Set for start Friday Kennedy will start for the Reds on Friday versus the Blue Jays, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Kennedy is getting a likely-brief look in the Cincinnati rotation as Nick Lodolo (lower leg) completes his minor-league rehab assignment. The 29-year-old right-hander owns a career 6.42 ERA in 33.2 major-league innings and is not a recommended fantasy streamer.

Reds hope time is now as Blue Jays come to town Timing can be everything, and for TJ Friedl and the Cincinnati Reds, the occasion may have arrived a for rejuvenated run to the playoffs.

Vladimir Gutierrez - May be nursing injury The Reds announced Wednesday that Gutierrez (elbow) has been pulled from his rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville.
Impact Gutierrez had been tracking toward a return from the 60-day injured list next weekend, but the Reds' decision to bring him back from the rehab assignment a week and a half early seemingly indicates that he suffered a setback in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. According to MLB.com, Gutierrez's fastball had hovered between 91 and 93 miles per hour in his first two rehab appearances with Louisville, but his average velocity dropped down to 90.3 mph during his most recent outing this past Saturday, when he was tagged for four earned runs on two hits and two walks over 1.1 innings. Gutierrez will presumably be evaluated by the Reds' team doctors before the team provides an update on his next steps.

Spencer Steer - Swipes bag in win Steer went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 7-2 win over Cleveland.
Impact Steer was hit by a pitch in the first inning then stole his 11th base in 13 attempts over 117 games. Other than the eight thefts in 12 attempts he had in 2021, Steer has not shown a proclivity to steal bases in the minors.
AUGUST 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Stuart Fairchild - Goes yard in win Fairchild went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Guardians.
Impact Fairchild's two-run shot in the fourth inning turned out to be the game-winning hit for the Reds, who stumbled through the first half of the month with an inconsistent offense that's missing Jake Fraley (toe) and Jonathan India (foot). Those two injuries have led to a spike in Fairchild's playing time during this most recent stint in the majors. His window could close soon, pending the results of Fraley's upcoming MRI (Friday) to determine the progress of his stress fracture.

T.J. Friedl - Swipes 23rd bag in win Friedl went 3-for-5 with three runs scored and a steal in Wednesday's 7-2 victory over Cleveland.
Impact Frieidl tallied the opening run in the Cincinnati win, leading off the bottom of the first inning with a single before scoring on a Matt McLain double. With his three-hit effort Wednesday, the 28-year-old Friedl broke out of a 2-for-18 (.111) slump. He's now slashing .280/.346/.439 with 10 homers, 50 runs scored and 46 RBI across 396 plate appearances while going 23-for-27 in stolen base attempts this season.
