Spiers

He’ll take the place of the injured Chase Burns (groin) on the Reds’ active roster. The 28-year-old hurler has made five appearances in the minor leagues as he finished his recovery from Tommy John surgery, posting a 3.75 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and a 30/5 K/BB ratio over 24 innings of work. It’s likely that he’ll get to make one start during the final week of the season and could be worth a look as a streaming option in deeper leagues.

Toglia signed a minor league deal in January after being non-tendered by the Rockies, and stood very little of making the Opening Day roster. He’ll likely begin the season in Triple-A Louisville.

Spiers, who will spend most of next season recovering from Tommy John surgery, returns to Cincinnati as organizational depth after being removed from the club’s 40-man roster last week. The 28-year-old right-hander owns a 5.69 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 103/41 K/BB ratio across 117 innings over 29 appearances (14 starts) since 2023.

Spiers loses his spot on Cincinnati’s 40-man roster and could attract some interest on waivers. The 28-year-old former prospect will miss a significant portion of next season while recovering from Tommy John surgery.

A date for the surgery has not been set. Spiers has been out for the majority of 2025 with a shoulder injury, but it appears that he suffered a setback in the elbow during his rehab. He’ll miss all of 2025, obviously, and there’s a good chance that he won’t pitch in 2026 as well.

The 27-year-old right-hander has been sidelined since late April due to a shoulder impingement. Given the long layoff, he’s likely to require an extensive rehab assignment before he’ll be an option to help out the Reds at the big league level.

It’s a procedural move that creates room on the 40-man roster for Garrett Hampson after Hampson signed Friday. The 27-year-old will be eligible to come off the injured list June 20, but there’s no timetable for when the right-hander will be ready after suffering a shoulder impingement late in April.

Spiers heads to the injured list following a 94-pitch relief outing on Saturday against the Orioles following Hunter Greene’s early departure after just three innings. The 27-year-old righty was originally slated to take the ball for Sunday’s series finale. It’ll be Brent Suter starting a bullpen game for Cincinnati.

Hunter Greene’s short outing meant Spiers was needed today, and he spared the Reds bullpen with a 94-pitch outing. It’s unclear now exactly what the Reds will do tomorrow, but they’ll have all of their usual relievers available if they want to try a bullpen game. Spiers is likely to return to Triple-A.

Spiers is up and will start Sunday’s game against the Orioles. The 27-year-old struggled in his two starts earlier this year while allowing eight runs over 9 1/3 innings, and wouldn’t be a great streaming option on paper. Probably off paper, too.
