Hunter Greene News
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) will come off the 15-day injured list on Sunday on a controlled workload to face the division-rival Pittsburgh Pirates. Greene is recovering from right-elbow soreness and threw 52 games in a simulated game on Tuesday. Still, the 25-year-old hasn't been fully stretched out, so despite the plus matchup against Pittsburgh this weekend, he won't be a recommended fantasy start for those still playing for a championship late in the year. If Greene doesn't suffer a setback on Sunday, he'll be more appealing in fantasy lineups for his final start of the year next week, which is lined up against the division-rival Chicago Cubs. Before his elbow injury, Greene took a step forward in 2024 as a first-time All-Star with a 9-4 record, career-best 2.83 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and a 162:53 K:BB in 143 1/3 innings over his 24 starts.

Hunter Greene To Throw Live Batting Practice
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) is scheduled to throw a live batting practice session on Tuesday in Cincinnati, according to manager David Bell. It's possible Greene could return to the starting rotation and make two starts before the end of the 2024 season. Greene is working his way back from right-elbow soreness, and this will be his second live batting practice session. For fantasy managers still playing for a championship this year, the 25-year-old Greene could still be an asset down the stretch after going 9-4 with a career-best 2.83 ERA (3.42 FIP), a 1.02 WHIP and 162 strikeouts in 143 1/3 innings pitched over his 24 starts for the Reds this year. The former second overall pick in 2017 hasn't pitched in a big-league game since Aug. 13, though, so he could be on an innings limit when he returns from the injured list. UPDATE: Green threw three simulated "innings" of 20, 20 and 10 pitches and said he felt great. His next outing could be in the big leagues this Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Hunter Greene Nearing Return To Reds Rotation
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow), who was put on the injured list on Aug. 17 as a precaution due to right-elbow soreness, said he felt good after throwing live batting practice on Sept. 11 in St. Louis. Greene threw around 25 pitches in that session and plans on having a longer session on Saturday in Minnesota. After that, the next step would be to pitch in a major-league game in Cincinnati during the team's Sept. 17-22 homestand. "My focus has been making sure that my mindset continues to be me versus you," Greene said. "I think that's really important when you're going through this process, is keeping that competitive mind and being able to kind of close that gap of, you know, kind of that feeling of being out for a month and not gracing a big league mound." The first-time All-Star should be lined up for a few starts before the end of the regular season in what has been a breakout season.

Hunter Greene To Throw Bullpens Thursday And Sunday
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) is slated to throw bullpen sessions on Thursday and Sunday, according to manager David Bell. It's the first time that Greene has thrown off a mound since landing on the injured list in the middle of August due to right-elbow inflammation, so it's a big step in his recovery. The 25-year-old will eventually need to progress to facing live hitters and will probably need a minor-league rehab assignment, too, so fantasy managers probably can't expect him back in the big leagues for another couple weeks. There are only a few weeks left in the 2024 regular season as well, so there's no guarantee that Greene is going to make much of a difference in fantasy down the stretch. The former second overall pick in 2017 has had a successful 2024 season overall, though, going 9-4 with a 2.83 ERA, a 1.02 WHIP and 162 strikeouts over 143 1/3 innings in his 24 starts.

Hunter Greene Resumes Throwing
Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell said that right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) has resumed throwing as he prepares to return this season. There remains no timetable for Greene's return from the 15-day injured list, but the good news is the Reds are expecting the 25-year-old to return before the end of the regular season at the end of September. However, for fantasy purposes, Greene isn't going to have much time at all to make a difference for teams that are in the mix for a title. He was shut down several weeks ago with inflammation in his right elbow, so it's going to take him some time to ramp back up. Greene made his first All-Star squad in 2024 in his third year in the big leagues and has been excellent for fantasy managers with a 9-4 record, career-best 2.83 ERA, a 1.02 WHIP and a 162:53 K:BB in 143 1/3 innings over his 24 starts. Just don't expect much from him when/if he returns late in September.

Hunter Greene Won't Be Ready To Return Soon
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) underwent an MRI exam and obtained three opinions on his injured right elbow, with no structural damage to be found. It's great news since he had Tommy John surgery in 2019. However, Greene won't be ready anytime soon. "It looks like I need about two weeks or so for the inflammation to go down, to go away," Greene said. "Then I'll start throwing again." There remains hope that Greene can return in 2024, but he's quickly running out of time to make an impact for fantasy managers still chasing a title. In a best-case scenario, he's likely to make only one or two more starts if he actually makes it back. The 25-year-old former second overall pick in 2017 was a first-time All-Star this year and has had a fantastic season, going 9-4 with a career-best 2.83 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and solid 27.8% strikeout rate in his 24 starts.

Hunter Greene Headed To The Injured List With Shoulder Injury
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day IL on Saturday evening with right elbow soreness. The Reds plan on recalling a player from Triple-A sometime tomorrow. The right-hander expressed some pain in his throwing elbow following his previous start on Tuesday and will now sit out for at least the next two weeks. Since the start of July, the hard thrower has been one of the best pitchers in the sport, boasting an incredible 0.98 ERA, 0.70 WHIP, and a 12:53 BB:K ratio across 46 frames. Overall, through 143 1/3 innings of work, the Notre Dame product sits with a 2.83 ERA and a 1.02 WHIP and is on pace to have the best season of his major league career. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to who is called upon to fill the open spot in the rotation going forward.

Hunter Greene Extends Quality Start Streak To Seven Games Tuesday
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene turned in another strong start in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Cardinals. Greene pitched seven innings, allowing a single run on four hits (including a solo home run) and a walk with eight strikeouts. The 25-year-old has performed like a former fantasy prospect this season, going 9-4 with a 2.83 ERA, a 10.17 K/9 rate, and a 3.33 BB/9 rate in 24 starts and 143 1/3 IP. He has been on an even more impressive run over his last seven starts, resulting in seven quality starts with a 0.98 ERA. He will have a good chance to extend his quality start streak to eight in his next start, which will be at the scuffling Blue Jays.

Hunter Greene Collects Another Quality Start
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene stayed hot in Thursday's no-decision versus the Miami Marlins. Greene tossed his sixth straight quality start, firing six innings of three-run ball, allowing six hits, two walks and striking out five batters. The right-hander has been rolling lately and has a 1.13 ERA over his last five starts. On the season, Greene owns a 2.90 ERA to go along with 10.17 K/9 and 12 quality starts. At this point, the only concern for Greene managers would be if the Reds decide to limit him down the stretch, with a playoff appearance unlikely. The talented flamethrower will look to pick up his seventh straight quality start when he faces off against the division rival St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday.
