Robert Dugger - Outrighted to Triple-A Dugger accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.
Impact Dugger had the choice of electing free agency after going unclaimed off waivers, but he may have decided that sticking in the Reds organization was his best option as he looks to make his way back to the big leagues. He was added to the 40-man roster ahead of the second game of Thursday's doubleheader with the Pirates and struck out five over 3.2 scoreless innings, only to get designated for assignment a day later.

Vladimir Gutierrez - Tommy John surgery on tap Gutierrez (elbow) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery later this month, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Gutierrez, the Reds and the team's medical staff made the collective decision to have the right-hander go under the knife after he suffered a setback with his strained elbow during a live batting practice session Tuesday. Based on the timing of his upcoming surgery, Gutierrez will miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign and likely the majority of the 2023 season while recovering from the procedure. He'll become the third Reds pitcher to require Tommy John in the last calendar year, joining Tejay Antone and Justin Wilson.

Nick Senzel - Sitting Sunday Senzel is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
Impact In addition to plating two runs in Saturday's 5-4 win, Senzel has also recorded a pair of hits in both of the first two games of the series with the Rays, lifting his season average to .262. Though Albert Almora will get a look in center field in Sunday's series finale, Senzel still looks like the Reds' preferred option at the position.

Kyle Farmer - Takes seat Sunday Farmer is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
Impact After a three-game absence to begin the week due to a hand injury, Farmer returned to the lineup Wednesday and started in each of the Reds' last five contests, going 2-for-19 with a double, two runs and an RBI during that stretch. Farmer isn't believed to have suffered any sort of setback with his hand, so his absence from the lineup Sunday is likely just a maintenance day. Matt Reynolds will fill in for Farmer at shortstop.
JULY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Papierski - Back to No. 2 role Papierski is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
Impact Papierski picked up starts behind the plate for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader with the Pirates as well as Friday's series opener with the Rays following fellow backstop Aramis Garcia's (elbow) placement on the injured list. However, with No. 1 catcher Tyler Stephenson (thumb) returning from the IL on Saturday, Papierski's brief run atop the depth chart has come to an end.
JULY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Joey Votto - Remains sidelined Votto (back) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
Impact Mike Moustakas will once again fill in at first base for Votto, who is on the bench for the seventh consecutive game on account of back tightness. Votto hasn't made any pinch-hitting appearances over the past five contests, suggesting a stint on the 10-day injured list could still be on the table for the 38-year-old. For now, he can be viewed as day-to-day in advance of the Reds' three-game series with the Yankees, which begins Tuesday.

Drury leads Reds against the Rays following 4-hit performance
The Cincinnati Reds play the Tampa Bay Rays after Brandon Drury's four-hit game on SaturdayJULY 10, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Brandon Drury - Racks up four hits Saturday Drury went 4-for-5 with two doubles and two RBI in Saturday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Rays.
Impact Drury came up with a big hit in the eighth inning, knocking a single to left field that plated two runs and tied the score. The hit was his fourth of the contest, marking his first four-hit performance of the season. Drury shows no signs of slowing down in what his been a breakout campaign -- he's slashing .278/.335/.542 with a career-best 18 homers and 50 RBI along with 52 runs and two stolen bases.

Hunter Greene - Strikes out nine in no-decision Greene did not factor in the decision against Tampa Bay on Saturday, pitching six innings and allowing one run on three hits and four walks while striking out nine.
Impact Greene hurled 114 pitches in the outing, four short of the career-high 118 he tossed May 15 against Pittsburgh. The rookie was throwing heat Saturday -- per MLB Pipeline, 38 of his offerings clocked in at 100 mph or above, the second most of any pitcher in the Statcast era. Unfortunately for Greene, the Reds offense couldn't get much going against Tampa Bay until late in the game, and he had to settle for a no-decision. Greene has had his ups and downs in his first big-league campaign, but he has certainly flashed big potential, especially in terms of his ability to miss bats. He's tied for 10th in the majors with 107 strikeouts overall and ranks fourth among qualified starters with an 11.3 K/9.

JULY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ross Detwiler - Placed on 15-day IL Detwiler was placed on the 15-day injured list with low back pain Saturday, retroactive to July 8.
Impact Detwiler has been relatively effective since the start of July, posting a 2.25 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in four innings over four relief appearances. However, he's dealing with a back issue that will keep him sidelined until at least July 23. Right-hander Buck Farmer's contract was selected from Triple-A Louisville to take his place in the rotation.
