Marte was just optioned back to Triple-A on Tuesday when Matt McLain was activated off the IL, but he’ll return now with Christian Encarnacion-Strand landing on the IL. However, we saw last week that Marte being up in Cincinnati does not mean they’ll play him. Austin Hays being off the IL means that Gavin Lux will need to play third base more often, which makes it hard to envision regular playing time for Marte.

Petty gave up six hits, walked six and struck out four. His ERA is up to 21.94 after two starts. While Petty posses strikeout upside based on his Triple-A performance, he’s not getting enough outs in general for it to matter at the big league level right now. He’s best left on fantasy benches until he figures it out. Petty is lined up to face the Guardians at home next weekend if he remains in the rotation.

The Reds scored 10 runs in the first and then held on for dear life as the Astros did their best to come back. The five times on base raised Friedl’s OBP to .360, and he’s scored 23 runs in 38 games. He’ll be a fine choice in mixed leagues next week with the Reds home for six games against the White Sox and Guardians.

A stunning outing from Singer, who had been nothing but solid through six weeks with the Reds. He hadn’t allowed more than three earned runs in any of his seven starts coming into this one. The Astros got to him for nine hits, with six of those coming in the six-run third inning. It cost Singer what should have been the easiest win of his life, and his ERA jumped from 3.66 to 4.97. He’ll face the Guardians next.
