Swipes fourth bag Reynolds went 2-for-4 with a run, an RBI and a stolen base in Monday's 5-4 victory against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Reynolds put the Reds on the board in the fourth inning with a run-scoring single. He later scored the game-winning run in the sixth after reaching on an infield single, stealing second base and scoring on a Mike Moustakas base knock. Reynolds posted his fourth multi-hit performance over his past 12 games, and he is batting .310 (13-for-42) with three homers, seven RBI and one theft over that span.

Knocks another homer Reynolds went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Thursday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Reynolds took Ian Kennedy yard in the ninth inning to record his third home run of the season. He's hit each of his homers in his last seven games, also collecting six RBI and three runs scored in that span. So long as Mike Moustakas (illness) and Jonathan India (hamstring) remain sidelined, Reynolds should have a clear path to playing time.

Homers, drives in four runs Reynolds went 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBI during Tuesday's 14-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact The 31-year-old delivered a two-run homer during the third inning and brought home another two runs with a single in the eighth. Reynolds has appeared in 33 games for Cincinnati this year and has a .277/.349/.404 slash line with two long balls, 11 RBI and three stolen bases, and he should continue seeing regular time at second base until Jonathan India (hamstring) returns from the injured list.

Sitting out Monday Reynolds is not in the starting lineup for Monday's contest versus the Diamondbacks.

Impact Reynolds will take a seat after starting six straight games, going 7-for-20 with a solo home run, two runs and a stolen base in those contests. Alejo Lopez is starting at second base and batting eighth in Monday's series opener.

Three hits, stolen base Tuesday Reynolds went 3-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox.

Impact Reynolds singled and scored in the top of the sixth inning. He also added two more base knocks and a stolen base later in the contest. The 31-year-old is now up to three steals on the season and he has notched at least one hit in five straight games. Over those contests, Reynolds has gone 8-for-17 with two extra-base hits, four runs, four RBI and a stolen base. The hot streak has raised his batting average from .214 to .274 over 73 at-bats in 28 games in 2022.

JUNE 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to bench Reynolds is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact He'll be on the bench for the first time since May 19, ending a streak of nine consecutive starts in which he went 8-for-30 (.267 average) with two doubles, a triple, a stolen base, three walks, five RBI and four runs. With Cincinnati recently electing to option Colin Moran to Triple-A Louisville, Reynolds should be well-positioned for a near-everyday role in the Reds infield until Jonathan India (hamstring) is cleared to return from the injured list at some point in June.

MAY 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Shines in leadoff spot Reynolds went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Blue Jays.

Impact Getting the start at second base and hitting leadoff against southpaw Hyun Jin Ryu, Reynolds spoiled Toronto's shutout bid with a run-scoring double in the seventh inning. The 31-year-old utility player snapped a 1-for-16 mini-slump with the performance, and he figures to see regular playing time at the keystone this weekend with an unvaccinated Brandon Drury joining Jonathan India (hamstring) and Donovan Solano (hamstring) on the shelf for the road trip to Canada.

MAY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes seat Thursday Reynolds is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Reynolds had been in line to sit out Wednesday's game in Cleveland before the contest was ultimately rained out. He'll now get a proper day off for the series finale Thursday, with outfielder Albert Almora effectively replacing him in the starting nine.

MAY 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Wednesday Reynolds is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Reynolds will head to the bench after going 0-for-10 with a walk and a stolen base while starting each of Cincinnati's last three games. The Reds will go with Brandon Drury and Kyle Farmer as their starters in the middle infield in the series finale in Cleveland.

Pirates beat Greene, Reds despite being held hitless

For the first time since 2008, a team lost despite not allowing a single hit, when Cincinnati fell to Pittsburgh on Sunday.

Pirates beat Greene, Reds despite being held hitless

On bench Friday Reynolds is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Reynolds will take a seat for the second time in the past three games after starting the previous four contests. The Reds will shift defensively in his absence, which results in Albert Almora entering the lineup in center field.

MAY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sits after four straight starts Reynolds is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

Impact Reynolds had started at second base in each of the Reds' last four games, going 3-for-12 with four walks and a run over that stretch. He'll take a seat for the series finale while Brandon Drury picks up the start at the keystone, and Reynolds may be the odd man out for regular playing time in the infield if Joey Votto (illness) is cleared to return from the COVID-19 injured list later this week.

MAY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Opportunities increasing Reynolds will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Reynolds will pick up his fourth start in five games Sunday, with those assignments coming at three different positions (second base, shortstop and right field). The 31-year-old's defensive versatility should allow to hold down a near-everyday role until the Reds get at least one of Joey Votto or Nick Senzel back from the COVID-19 injured list.

MAY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Claimed by Cincinnati Reynolds was claimed off waivers by the Reds on Sunday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

Impact The 31-year-old was designated for assignment by the Mets on Wednesday and will now join the Reds. Ryan Hendrix, who was removed from the 40-man roster in a corresponding move, had been pitching for Triple-A Louisville, so the Reds will have to make another transaction to clear a spot on the 28-man active roster for Reynolds. Expect him to fill a utility role in the infield for the banged-up Reds.

APRIL 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Designated for assignment Reynolds was designated for assignment by the Mets on Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Reynolds' contract was selected by the Mets on Friday, but he didn't have any plate appearances during his time with the major-league club. Mark Canha (illness) was activated from the COVID-19 injured list Wednesday, so Reynolds will lose his spot on the 40-man roster.

APRIL 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Designated for assignment Reynolds was designated for assignment by the Royals on Saturday.

Impact Reynolds spent just four days on the Royals' roster, going 0-for-11. The move clears space for Kelvin Gutierrez (elbow) to return from the 45-day injured list.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Starting second straight game Reynolds will start at third base and will bat sixth Wednesday against the Indians, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Impact Reynolds was called up from the alternate site Tuesday and started in the Royals' 8-6 win over the Indians, going 0-for-3 with a run scored. In the lineup for the second straight day against a right-handed pitcher (Carlos Carrasco), Reynolds could get at extended trial at the hot corner while Maikel Franco fills in as the Royals' designated hitter in place of the injured Jorge Soler (oblique).
