Idle Tuesday Steer isn't in the Reds' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks

Impact Steer will catch a breather Tuesday after extending his hitting streak to five games while also driving in two runs during Monday's loss. Jacob Hurtubise will get the nod to start in left field and bat ninth while Steer rests.

Impact Steer's first-inning, two-out double plated the Reds' first run, then his third-inning single tied the game. He has four RBI in the last two games and leads the Reds with 27 runs driven in.

Three hits, steal in win Steer went 3-for-4 with a walk, stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-5 win over the Angels.

Impact Steer isn't as flashy as teammate Elly De La Cruz, but he's been just as productive to open the season. Steer leads the Reds in average (.324), on-base percentage (.435), RBI (18), hits (23) and is second only to De La Cruz in OPS (.998). The stolen base was Steer's fourth in 20 games, putting him on pace to surpass last season's 15 thefts over 156 contests.

Homers again, steals bag Steer went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run, one additional run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 9-6 win over the Mets.

Impact Steer seems to be emerging as a leader on this young Reds team, both in the clubhouse and in the stat sheet. He currently leads the club in batting average (.448), homers (three) and RBI (12). He also has two steals in as many attempts and several clutch hits in the early going, including two go-ahead homers this week. The 26-year-old has started in left field exclusively but will likely end up moving around as he did last season.

Homers in defeat Steer went 1-for-3 with a solo homer and two walks during Friday's 3-2 loss against the Mets.

Impact Steer put the Reds ahead early with a solo shot off Jose Quintana in the first inning, but Cincinnati's offense wasn't able to manufacture much else Friday. The 26-year-old utility man has now homered twice and driven in nine RBI through his first seven games.

Opens in outfield Steer started in left field and went 2-for-3 with a double, a stolen base, two RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Nationals on Opening Day.

Impact Steer was part of a productive lower-half of the order, which combined to go 8-for-19 and was responsible for all eight runs and RBI. He qualifies at multiple positions, but the offseason plan was to use him primarily in the outfield. Steer led the team in home runs (23) and RBI (86) last season while stealing a fantasy-helpful 15 bases.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Out of Sunday's lineup Steer is not in the lineup for Sunday's game at St. Louis.

Impact Steer had a strong finish to the season with a .942 OPS while starting the past 11 games, but he'll take a seat for Sunday's finale. The 25-year-old has put together a strong rookie campaign with 23 home runs, 15 steals, 86 RBI and an .820 OPS in 665 plate appearances.

OCTOBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joins HR party Steer went 2-for-4 with a double and a home run in Friday's 19-2 win over St. Louis.

Impact Steer launched a solo home run in the second inning, one of six members of the starting lineup to go deep in a win that kept the Reds' playoff hopes alive. He's hit safely in 12 of the last 13 games, going 16-for-49 (.327) with nine extra-base hits, eight RBI and seven runs scored. The home run was Steer's 23rd over 155 games.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Secures three hits Steer went 3-for-4 with a double, one RBI and one run scored in Monday's 7-3 victory over the Twins.

Impact Steer laced a double off Joe Ryan in the fourth inning for his 32nd of the year. He later added an RBI-single off Dallas Keuchel in the seventh inning for his third hit in the contest. Steer is looking to close out the year on a strong note and is now batting .278 with four homers, 10 RBI and eight runs over 61 at-bats in September. The 25-year-old is slashing .269/.358/.457 over 147 games amidst a breakout season.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not in lineup Steer will sit Saturday against the Mets.

Impact Steer owns an .837 OPS in the month of September and an .808 OPS on the year, but he'll hit the bench after starting 35 consecutive games. The timing of his off day is somewhat unusual given that he's homered in each of his last two games, but it seems to be merely a routine rest.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Launches another homer Steer went 1-for-3 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in Friday's 5-3 win over the Mets.

Impact Steer homered for a second straight day and the fourth time in the last 11 games, upping his season total to 22. Cincinnati manager David Bell likes to take advantage of Steer's versatility and moves him around the lineup. Over the last six games, Steer made starts at first base, third base and right field; he also moved mid game to left field and second base during that stretch. For the season, Steer has started 60 games at first base, 46 at third base, 34 in left field, 15 at second base, six as designated hitter and two in right field.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Bops homer in loss Steer went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Tigers.

Impact Steer launched his team-leading 21st home run of the season in the sixth inning. In addition to homers, Steer leads the Reds with 79 RBI. While manager David Bell may shuttle players in and out of the starting lineup, he appears to be content putting the infielder/outfielder in the lineup daily.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs steal in loss Steer started at second base and went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 9-4 loss to St. Louis.

Impact Steer, who never stole more than eight bases in a season while in the minors, stole his 13th bag for the Reds. His stint as the primary fill-in at second base could be ending soon, as Jonathan India (foot) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville on Friday. India is expected to return Tuesday, which means manager David Bell can take advantage of Steer's versatility, moving him between third base, first base and left field.

Ends homer drought Speer started at second base and went 1-for-4 with a walk, a home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 15-7 loss to the Cubs.

Impact Speer belted the second of back-to-back home runs in the first inning to give the Reds an early lead. The homer snapped a 21-game drought for Speer, who has 19 for the season. With news that Jonathan India (foot) will begin a rehab assignment this week, Speer should serve as the primary second baseman for another handful of games. He's appeared in 10 games at the keystone already, which may be enough to qualify as a middle infielder depending on a fantasy league's rules.
