  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Moved to 60-day IL

    The Reds transferred Steer (wrist) to the 60-day injured list Friday.

    The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Oswaldo Cabrera, who was claimed off waivers. Steer has been ramping up his activities recently as he works his way back from a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his wrist. He will be eligible for activation Sept. 25, but there's a good chance Steer's season is over.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Ramping up activity

    Steer (wrist) has been taking dry swings and is preparing to hit off a velocity machine next week, MLB.com reports.

    Steer, who is unlikely to play again during the 2026 regular season, will ramp up while the Reds finish the regular season on the road in Atlanta and Toronto. Following his work on the machine, Steer is ticketed for Arizona, where he may get at-bats in the Arizona Fall League.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Cleared to increase activity

    Steer (wrist) was cleared Friday to begin range-of-motion activity, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

    Steer was examined in Arizona by a specialist, who cleared him to increase activity. "All is going really well," manager Terry Francona said. "He will begin more range of motion [exercises], start to get a bat in his hand." That's good news for Steer, but it doesn't guarantee he'll return before the end of the regular season. "The goal is we want him to have a normal offseason," Francona said. "We might be pushing it if we try to do it by the end of the season." The Reds are considering having Steer play in the Arizona Fall League, which is typically reserved for prospects.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Scheduled for examination

    Steer (wrist) is scheduled to be examined Sept. 11 to determine if he can begin swinging a bat, MLB.com reports.

    To this point, Steer has been limited to strengthening exercises. It seems the hope would be that Steer could rejoin the club in the final days of the regular season, but there's also been talk of him being shut down. Given where the Reds sit in the standings, there's an argument to be made for the latter scenario.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Could miss remainder of season

    Steer (wrist) may not return before the end of the season, Patrick Brown of MLB.com reports.

    Steer had a follow-up visit with an orthopedic surgeon Friday. He has not yet been recommended for surgery, and the preferred path going forward is to avoid that if possible. "It still obviously is a problem," Steer said Friday. "I'm just trying to do everything I can to let the body heal, and then see what we've got in a couple of weeks." Steer is focusing on lower-body work for now, but given where the Reds sit in the standings and their chances of making the playoffs, the most prudent course of action is to not rush him back.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Follow-up exam on wrist this weekend

    Steer will have a follow-up exam on his injured right wrist this weekend, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

    Recovering from a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his wrist, Steer could be cleared to ramp up baseball activities if he receives good news during his exam. He remains without a clear timeline to return from the 10-day injured list, but more clarity on that front should come after this weekend.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: On verge of mobility exercises

    Steer (wrist) is scheduled to have a splint removed from his right wrist Monday, MLB.com reports.

    Once the split is gone, Steer can begin mobility exercises with his hand and wrist. He'll be re-evaluated soon after to determine where the wrist is at in the healing process. Steer could rejoin the team in September.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Nursing partial tear in wrist

    Steer will wear a splint for the next two weeks after being diagnosed with a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his right wrist, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

    Steer suffered the injury on a swing during Sunday's game in St. Louis and was placed on the injured list Monday. The hope is that he can avoid surgery and the injury heals with rest, but it's no guarantee that will happen. A timeline for Steer's return likely won't be available until he's re-evaluated following the two-week shutdown period.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Shelved by sprained wrist

    The Reds placed Steer on the 10-day injured list Monday with a right wrist sprain.

    Steer suffered the injury on an awkward swing during Sunday's contest in St. Louis. The Reds have not yet revealed a timetable for Steer, but Buster Olney of ESPN reported earlier Monday that the 28-year-old is expected to miss "significant time." Noelvi Marte could see a playing time bump for the Reds while Steer is sidelined.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Set to miss 'significant time'

    The Reds are expected to place Steer on the injured list Monday after he suffered a right wrist injury that is likely to cost him "significant time," Buster Olney of ESPN reports.

    Steer was forced out of Sunday's 5-3 win over the Cardinals in the fifth inning, after he felt some discomfort when he fouled a pitch off the end of his bat. The Reds labeled his injury as right wrist pain and indicated that he would visit a specialist Monday for further imaging. While the team has yet to provide an official update on Steer's status, Olney's report suggests that an MRI revealed a major injury. With a .740 OPS over 98 games this season, the versatile Steer was expected to be a coveted right-handed bat ahead of the Aug. 3 trade deadline, but his impending move to the IL will likely take any potential deal off the table.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Exits with wrist pain

    The Reds announced that Steer was removed from Sunday's game against the Cardinals in the fifth inning due to right wrist pain.

    Steer went 0-for-2 with a pair of strikeouts before being pulled midway through his fifth-inning at-bat due to the wrist issue. Edwin Arroyo came off the bench to replace Steer, who is likely being viewed as day-to-day until he undergoes a more thorough evaluation.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Leaves early with hand injury

    Steer was removed from Sunday's game against the Cardinals in the fifth inning due to an apparent right hand injury, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports. He went 0-for-2 with two strikeouts prior to his departure.

    Steer was unable to continue his at-bat in the top of the fifth after his hand seemed to be bothering him when he fouled off a pitch. Edwin Arroyo came on to pinch hit for Steer, who can be viewed as day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Guardians until the Reds provide an update on his condition.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Out of Saturday's lineup

    Steer isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against St. Louis.

    Steer will get a chance to regroup Saturday after going 0-for-14 over his last four games. His absence will allow Noelvi Marte to start in right field, batting sixth.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Returns to action

    Steer started in right field and went 0-for-4 in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mariners.

    Steer checked back into the starting lineup after missing a game due to a rib injury he suffered Monday. Although hitless over his last 11 at-bats, Steer has rebounded this month (.259 average) following a month of June during which he hit just .159.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Checking back into starting nine

    Steer (rib) will start in right field and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

    After being lifted late in Monday's 8-0 loss due to a rib contusion, Steer was held out of the starting nine for Tuesday's 4-2 win. He went unused off the bench but was reportedly available after checking out fine when he took pregame swings, per MLB.com. Following the full day of rest, Steer is ready to step back into the starting nine for the finale, covering right field while Noelvi Marte heads back to the bench.

  • Reds' Spencer Steer: Expected to be OK

    Reds manager Terry Francona said that Steer (ribs) is expected to be OK and was slated to hit in the batting cage pregame Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

    Steer was unable to play Tuesday in Seattle after being hit by a pitch in the ribs during Monday's contest. He appears to have avoided a serious injury, however, and should be considered day-to-day. While Steer could play Wednesday, a looming team off day Thursday might convince the club to hold the 28-year-old out until Friday.
