Jake Fraley - Homers in lopsided loss Fraley went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 13-4 loss to the Cubs.
Impact Fraley got the Reds on the board in the fifth inning, but they never mounted much of a comeback push. The outfielder went 12-for-40 (.300) with six extra-base hits, three stolen bases and 10 RBI over 15 contests in July. He's at a .278/.328/.383 slash line, three homers, 19 RBI, 30 runs scored and 14 steals across 250 plate appearances for the year strictly as a strong-side platoon player.

Nick Lodolo - Hit hard Wednesday Lodolo (8-4) allowed eight runs on 11 hits and struck out six over 5.2 innings without walking a batter to take the loss versus the Cubs on Wednesday.
Impact Lodolo had allowed a total of eight runs across his previous three starts spanning 17.2 innings. The Cubs got to him early with multiple runs in the second and third frames, and Ian Happ's two-run homer in the sixth ended Lodolo's outing. The southpaw's ERA spiked up from 3.45 to 3.99, and he now has a 1.15 WHIP and 100:26 K:BB across 97 innings over 17 starts. Lodolo will look to bounce back in his next start, which is projected to be at Miami next week.

Noelvi Marte - Moving to bench Wednesday Marte is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.
Impact Now more than a month removed from returning to the Cincinnati lineup June 27 after completing his 80-game suspension to begin the season, Marte still has yet to get going at the plate. He enters Wednesday's contest with a .177/.223/.281 slash line and a 31.1 percent strikeout rate over 103 plate appearances. The Reds still seem committed to Marte as their everyday third baseman, but with the 22-year-old hitting the bench for the second time in the last four games, his leash may be getting shorter.

Lyon Richardson - Heads back to minors The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.
Impact Richardson got some work out of the bullpen in Tuesday's win over the Cubs, allowing two runs while retiring two batters. The right-hander will rejoin the rotation at Louisville.

Alexis Díaz - Notches save No. 21 Diaz picked up the save Tuesday against Chicago, allowing one walk and no hits across a scoreless ninth inning.
Impact Diaz converted on his 14th consecutive save chance and fired his second consecutive hitless appearance. The 27-year-old has a 4.23 ERA in 38.1 innings but has generally been reliable in the ninth inning, having blown merely two saves. Diaz is one of eight closers with more than 20 saves on the season.

Nick Martinez - Logs win, four innings Martinez (5-5) picked up Tuesday's win over the Cubs, allowing four hits and striking out three over four scoreless innings.
Impact Martinez followed opener Tony Santillan and threw his most innings since late May. The Reds traded starter Frankie Montas at the trade deadline and are in need of a fifth starter. It's possible Martinez, who worked as a starter earlier this season, will be built back up.

T.J. Friedl - Knocks in two in win Friedl went 2-for-3 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Cubs.
Impact Friedl, batting sixth in the order, put the Reds on top early with a two-out, two-run single in the first inning. He's knocked in five runs over the last two games. This marked the third time in four starts since returning from his latest injury that Friedl batted in the middle of the order. He's typically hit out of the leadoff spot for the Reds, but manager David Bell is going with Jonathan India there for now.

Santiago Espinal - Four-hit night Espinal started at designated hitter and went 4-for-4 with two doubles, a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Cubs.
Impact Espinal was in the starting lineup for a third consecutive game; with the Reds awaiting the arrival of Ty France, who was acquired Monday, Espinal slotted in at DH for the night. Once France arrives, it is expected that he and Jeimer Candelario will most frequently handle first base/DH.
