Reds send Julian Garcia to injured list

Julian Garcia

CIN Relief Pitcher

Player Stats

Reds placed RHP Julian Garcia on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to September 17, with right elbow loose bodies.

Elbow issues for a pitcher is never what you want to hear. This ends Garcia’s season. He had a 3.33 ERA in 46 innings with the Reds, notching two saves and striking out 41. The 31-year-old is set to be a free agent after the season. Assuming this isn’t a long-term issue, he’ll likely get a shot to compete for a bullpen spot somewhere next year.

Julian Garcia allowed a run and recorded his second save against the White Sox on Thursday.

He allowed a leadoff walk and Colson Montgomery was about five feet short of a game-tying homer before Edgar Quero hit an RBI single. Sam Antonacci hit a sharp line drive right up the middle that Elly De La Cruz was able to spear down to finish off the game. Garcia appearing here was a bit of an eyecatcher with Emilio Pagán having not pitched yesterday, so we’ll keep an eye out for quotes about this but Pagán has already been on the injured list for a lot of this season, has pitched just once in eight days, and may be being used judiciously even if he is healthy.

Julian Garcia notched his first career save after allowing only the automatic runner to score in the 10th Sunday against the Cardinals.

Working with a three-run lead, Garcia gave up back-to-back singles with one out but then retired Masyn Winn and José Fermín to end the game. Garcia, a 31-year-old rookie, has a 2.93 ERA in 15 1/3 innings since being called up last month. He could be part of a committee situation in the ninth if the Reds trade closer Emilio Pagán before the deadline.

The Reds are giving 31-year-old Julian Garcia his first MLB callup, according to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal.

Garcia was released by the Phillies after the 2022 season, but he kept pitching in indy ball and joined the Reds’ Double-A affiliate late last season. After moving back to the pen this year, he had a 3.03 ERA and a 54/12 K/BB in 35 2/3 innings for Triple-A Louisville. No word yet on whose roster spot he’ll be claiming.

Masyn Winn is absent from the Cardinals’ lineup for Sunday’s showdown against the Nationals.

Winn has been battling a thumb injury throughout the month of September, so the Cardinals have been careful to give him plenty of days of rest to help manage it. Thomas Saggese will start in his place at shortstop on Sunday and will bat sixth against Nationals’ right-hander Jake Irvin.

Tristan Peters (shoulder) remains out of the White Sox’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Tigers.

Peters suffered a bruised left shoulder after colliding with the outfield wall during Friday’s contest. He sat out Saturday’s game as a precautionary measure and will get an extra day on Sunday as well. It’s possible that he could be available off the bench if needed on Sunday afternoon. Braden Montgomery will start in his place in right field and will bat ninth against Tigers’ right-hander Troy Melton.

Dillon Dingler is not in the Tigers’ lineup for Sunday’s divisional matchup against the White Sox.

The Tigers rode Dingler pretty heavily for most of the season, so they’re pumping the brakes a bit now that they’re out of the postseason picture and giving him some additional rest down the stretch. That’s not ideal for fantasy purposes, but probably makes the most sense for the team and for Dingler overall. Eduardo Valencia is behind the plate and will bat fifth for the Tigers against White Sox’ right-hander Davis Martin on Sunday,

Red Sox optioned RHP Wyatt Olds to Triple-A Worcester.

Olds, 27, has done a terrific job in 13 appearances for the Red Sox this season, registering a 1.20 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and a 20/7 K/BB ratio over 15 innings of work. It’ll be interesting to see if he rejoins the bullpen for the postseason.

Red Sox activated RHP Tyron Guerrero from the 15-day injured list.

The hard-throwing right-hander had been sidelined since the start of September due to right shoulder inflammation. The Red Sox will want to get him into at least a couple of games over the next week just to make sure that he shakes any rust off before the start of the postseason. Wyatt Olds was optioned to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move on Sunday.

Austin Riley is not in the Braves’ starting lineup for Sunday’s matchup against Hunter Brown and the Astros.

Riley has been limping to the finish line of the regular season, slashing just .203/.266/.339 with two homers, eight RBI and a 22/4 K/BB ratio over 64 plate appearances since the calendar flipped to September. Hopefully a day off to reset is what he needs to get back on track. Mauricio Dubon will cover third base in his absence and will bat fifth for the Braves on Sunday.

A.J. Ewing is absent from the Mets’ starting lineup for Sunday afternoon’s tilt against the Phillies.

If you’re going to have to take a day off once in a while, doing so against Phillies star left-hander Cristopher Sanchez isn’t the worst idea in the world. The rookie outfielder has been on a tear at the plate recently, slashing .351/.397/.544 with three homers, 12 RBI and a pair of stolen bases in 63 plate appearances over his last 15 games. Nick Morabito will start in his place in center field and bat eighth for the Mets on Sunday.

Jonathan Aranda is not in the Rays’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Red Sox.

While Aranda does stay in the lineup against most left-handers, he’ll get a breather in this one with Patrick Sandoval toeing the slab for the Red Sox. Expect him to make an appearance off the bench in a key late game spot if the right situation arises. Ryan Vilade will start in his place at first base and will bat second for the Rays on Sunday afternoon in Tampa Bay.

Willson Contreras (hand) remains out of the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Rays.

Contreras winds up missing the entire weekend series against the Rays after being hit on the hand by a pitch during Thursday’s contest. He isn’t dealing with any structural damage and is still considered day-to-day, but the Red Sox obviously aren’t going to rush him back here. Their priority will be to have him ready to go for the start of the postseason. Nick Sogard will once again start in his place at first base and will bat fifth against Griffin Jax and the Rays.
