Reds scratch Naquin, Senzel from lineup, put both on IL
The Reds removed outfielders Tyler Naquin and Nick Senzel from the starting lineup for Wednesday’s game at Milwaukee and placed both on the injured listMAY 4, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Scratched, moves to COVID IL Senzel (undisclosed) was scratched from Wednesday's lineup against Milwaukee and placed on the COVID-19 injured list, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Senzel was slated to start in center field Wednesday and will now step away from the team. Tyler Naquin (undisclosed) was also placed on the COVID-19 IL. It's unclear if either player tested positive for the virus, but they'll both be unavailable until they clear MLB's testing protocols.

On bench Thursday Senzel is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Padres.
Impact Following a recent stint on the injured list while he dealt with an illness, Senzel started in center field in each of the Reds' past six games, going a collective 5-for-19 with a home run, a double, two RBI and an additional run. He's likely just getting some routine maintenance Thursday in a day game after a night game, with Jake Fraley picking up the start in center field in his stead.

Hits first homer of 2022 Senzel went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Padres.
Impact Cincinnati fell to 3-14 with the loss, but Senzel provided a bright spot with his solo shot off Robert Suarez in the ninth inning. It was Senzel's first homer since April 30, 2021 -- almost a full calendar year. He still has a lot to prove both in terms of health and performance, but at least for now Senzel appears to be feeling well after he recently missed some time due to illness.

Not in Tuesday's lineup Senzel is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in San Diego.
Impact Senzel was activated from the injured list Monday but has yet to enter the lineup for Cincinnati. TJ Friedl will start in center field and bat leadoff Tuesday after being promoted from Triple-A Louisville earlier in the day.
APRIL 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Back from IL Senzel (illness) has been activated from the injured list ahead of Monday's game against San Diego, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact As anticipated, Senzel has been officially activated after returning to health. He could start in center field Monday night in the series opener, especially now that Tyler Naquin (undisclosed) has been moved to the injured list in a corresponding move.
APRIL 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Activated Monday Senzel (illness) was activated from the injured list Monday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
Impact The 26-year-old has been unavailable for the past week while battling a stomach bug, but he'll rejoin the the active roster ahead of Monday's matchup with the Dodgers. Senzel wasn't included in the initial lineup but could take the starting spot of Tyler Naquin, who was placed on the injured list without a designation in a corresponding move.
APRIL 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Activation looming Senzel (illness) is back with the team and is expected to be activated from the injured list Tuesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact According to Nightengale, Senzel has been unable to take the field while dealing with a stomach bug, but he's expected to be available Tuesday if all goes according to plan. He's appeared in five games so far this season, going 2-for-17 with a double, an RBI and three strikeouts. Assuming Senzel is back in time for Tuesday's contest, Jake Fraley would likely shift back to right field, resulting in Tyler Naquin returning to a bench role.

Placed on injured list Senzel (illness) was placed on the injured list Saturday.
Impact The fact that the Reds' announcement merely referred to the "injured list" rather than the "10-day injured list" suggests Senzel has been placed on the COVID-19 injured list. He's been battling an illness over the past few days, though there hadn't been any previous indication that his illness was coronavirus. Players can hit the COVID-19 injured list merely with COVID-like symptoms, however, which appears to be what's going on here per C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic. If he continues to avoid a positive test, he could be back within the next few days, but if he tests positive for the virus he'd likely miss more time. Daniel Duarte was recalled to take his place on the roster,

Remains out Senzel (illness) is out of the lineup Saturday against the Dodgers, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Senzel remains out for the fourth consecutive game, but he was reportedly available off the bench Friday and the same could be true Saturday. That likely means he'll avoid a stint on the injured list, though his lingering absence creates doubt. Aristides Aquino has gotten more regular playing time in Senzel's absence, and he'll hit sixth while starting in right field Saturday.
APRIL 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Out with illness Senzel's absence from the Reds' last three lineups was due to illness, but he'll be available off the bench Friday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact The Reds insisted Senzel wasn't injured despite the fact that his absences came immediately after an outfield collision with Tommy Pham on Tuesday, and it appears as though that's accurate. The fact that Senzel is sick rather than injured is seemingly good news, as he's dealt with more than his fair share of injuries in recent years. The Reds haven't said when he'll be back in the lineup, but the fact that he's available off the bench Friday likely means he'll be ready to go soon.
APRIL 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Remains out of lineup Senzel will sit for the third straight game Friday against the Dodgers.
Impact Senzel collided with Tommy Pham in the outfield Tuesday against the Guardians but remained in the game. He hasn't appeared in any capacity since then. The Reds claimed that Senzel's absence wasn't injury-related Thursday, but each subsequent day he finds himself on the bench makes that harder to believe. Jake Fraley remains the starter in center field.
