This was absolutely the last thing the Reds needed. Greene’s velocity was fine tonight, but his 65 pitches produced just five missed swings and nine hard-hit balls. He also walked two batters in front of the second homer of the night. It was the first time since April that he’s given up three homers in a game.

Greene draws the starting assignment for the upstart Reds, who snuck into the postseason on the final day of the regular season. The flame-throwing 26-year-old ace was limited to just 19 regular-season starts due to a groin injury that sidelined him for over two months. He’ll face an extremely tough test against the defending World Series champions at Dodger Stadium, but definitely has the high-octane stuff required to potentially shut them down.

Greene’s battle with Paul Skenes delivered. A pitchers’ duel with playoff implications, the two combined to give up just nine hits and two runs with 14 strikeouts over 12 innings. Greene was the only one to let a run in though. Both of those runs came via hits by Spencer Horwitz who took advantage of two mistakes by Greene on a fastball and splitter that were each in the heart of the zone. Also, his slider command was good rather than great as he had a few more noncompetitive misses than normal. It was still a great regular season finale for the young right-hander who’s officially reached ace status.

It’s Greene’s first shutout since his rookie campaign in 2022. The 26-year-old right-hander struck out nine batters on the night — including Nico Hoerner and Ian Happ to finish it out. He carried a no-hit bid into the seventh inning until Seiya Suzuki spoiled the fun with a two-out double. That would be the Cubs’ only hit in the ballgame. Greene got 17 swings and misses on 109 pitches on the night — nine on his fastball — while registering a strong CSW of 36 percent. He’ll look to keep the good times rolling and finish the season on a high note as he carries a 7-4 record, 2.74 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and a 125/24 K/BB ratio (101 2/3 innings) into Wednesday’s matchup against the Pirates.

Brent Rooker and Carlos Cortes homered off him in the second inning. Greene’s night ended when he took a comebacker off his leg in the third, though he was probably done anyway. The 26-year-old had a little less fastball movement than usual, and whenever that happens, tough nights tend to follow. Still, that doesn’t really explain the season-high four walks; he’s walked 19 in 90 1/3 innings this season coming into this one. He’s due to face the Cubs next week.

Greene gave up one hit, walked two and struck out 12. It was a dominant performance by the 26-year-old right-hander. Greene has allowed just two runs in 13 1/3 innings over his last two starts while striking out 19. He has a 2.59 ERA and 113/19 K/BB ratio in 90 1/3 innings this year. Greene is lined up to face the Athletics on the road next weekend.

The run came in the seventh on a double, a walk and a single with one out. He was then replaced by Scott Barlow, who retired Nathan Lukes and Ernie Clement to preserve a 2-1 lead that wound up being lost in the ninth. Greene has a 2.66 ERA and a 28/3 K/BB in 23 2/3 innings over four starts since coming off the IL. He’ll face the Mets next.

Greene allowed a pair of homers in the loss; both to Andy Pages. Two more runs were charged to the 26-year-old, but they were unearned due to errors committed by Elly De La Cruz and Austin Hays. He walked two and struck out three. It could have gone worse, and Greene has built up enough goodwill to not be too harsh about a “clunker” against a lineup as good as the Dodgers. He’ll take a 2.81 ERA into his first start of September; scheduled for Monday against the Blue Jays.

Greene gave up a run to the Angels in the first inning on a double and a base hit. He settled in for five scoreless frames before giving up a solo homer to Jo Adell to lead off the seventh inning. He’d record his 12th strikeout, then allowed a double that would end his day with one out in the seventh at 98 pitches. The 26-year-old right-hander will take a 2.63 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and a 91/14 K/BB ratio across 72 innings into a start against the Dodgers in Los Angeles on Monday.

Greene’s first start in more than two months looked like most of his early outings prior to his original groin injury, as he struck out six and walked none. He had 16 missed swings while throwing only 85 pitches, and he improved to 5-3 with a 2.47 ERA and a 79/14 K/BB through 65 2/3 innings. Next up for him is a start against the Angels in Anaheim.

Greene is back as expected to make the start Wednesday against the Phillies. The right-hander was able to work 5 1/3 innings in his last rehab start, so he should be able to work deep enough — assuming he’s effective, of course — to potentially qualify for a win and put up quality fantasy numbers.

It’s not set in stone, but all indications point to Greene making his return from a two-month stint on the injured list recovering from a groin strain during Wednesday’s series finale against Philadelphia. The hard-throwing 26-year-old fantasy ace struck out seven and threw 79 pitches over 5 1/3 innings on Friday in his latest minor league rehab start for Triple-A Louisville. He’ll provide an immediate boost for Cincinnati — and fantasy managers as well.

Francona added that they’re hoping to get Greene up to roughly 80 pitches after he threw 66 pitches over 3 1/3 innings on Sunday in his latest rehab outing at the Triple-A level. The 25-year-old fantasy ace should be ready to return to Cincinnati’s rotation sometime around the middle of next week.

Greene struck out seven and walked one while throwing 42 of his 66 pitches for strikes. He sat 98.8 mph with his fastball and posted a 40 percent whiff rate, so he seems pretty healthy. The Reds have not yet announced a plan for their rotation moving forward, but if they opt not to go with a six-man rotation, Greene could return on Friday and take Chase Burns’ spot in the rotation.

Greene threw 50 pitches (38 strikes) as he piled up six strikeouts and didn’t hand out a free pass in his second rehab outing. He did give up five hits, including a pair of homers. The hard-throwing 25-year-old ace will likely need at least one additional start in the minors to build up his pitch count and stamina before returning to Cincinnati. He’s been out since early June recovering from a groin strain.

Greene threw 28 pitches (16 strikes) in his first rehab outing since landing on the injured list back in early June with a groin strain. The hard-throwing 25-year-old fantasy ace will require a handful of additional starts to continue building up his pitch count and stamina but should make it back to Cincinnati at some point in early to mid August.

Francona added that Greene will make at least one start in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League before heading to Triple-A Louisville. The flame-throwing 25-year-old righty has been on the shelf since early June recovering from a groin strain and a back issue that cropped up during his rehabilitation process. It’s possible he makes it back to Cincinnati’s rotation at some point in early August.

Greene suffered a setback in his rehab from the groin injury he suffered back in June, and while he was able to throw a bullpen Tuesday, there’s still discomfort. Francona said that there is currently no “roadmap” for Greene’s recovery nor his timetable, so fantasy managers should be prepared to be without Greene for the long haul.

It’s an extremely encouraging sign that Greene is throwing after undergoing additional testing earlier this week after experiencing renewed groin discomfort. The hard-throwing 25-year-old fantasy ace was scheduled to make a minor league rehab start this week, but that’s no longer happening. There should be some clarity on his status at some point soon, but fantasy managers should view it as a positive development that he’s throwing again without an extended shutdown.

Ugh. Greene underwent further testing, including an MRI, on Monday after experiencing renewed discomfort in his groin area. The hard-throwing 25-year-old righty was getting close to making it back to Cincinnati’s rotation by the end of July, but that’s now on hold. This latest development certainly qualifies as a setback. There should be some official clarity on his status at some point later this week.

Greene completed a simulated game earlier this week without any issues as he ramps up his throwing program. The hard-throwing 25-year-old fantasy ace hit the shelf back in early June with a groin strain and should be ready to rejoin Cincinnati’s rotation right around the All-Star break later this month. He’ll provide a massive lift for fantasy managers over the final two-plus months of the season if he can avoid the injured list and return to his early-season form.

Greene, 25, faced five hitters and told reporters after the outing that he felt “great.” The right-hander is dealing with a Grade 1 groin strain while also dealing with soreness in his back, so the Reds are taking the necessary precautions for their staff ace. It seems very likely that Greene returns shortly after the All-Star break but there’s no timetable just yet.

Greene is working his way back from a Grade 1 groin strain in addition to some lingering back soreness. There’s little incentive for Cincinnati to rush him back quickly and risk a setback, so fantasy managers shouldn’t anticipate him making it back until after the All-Star break.

It’s an encouraging update considering there’s hasn’t been much from Cincinnati regarding Greene’s outlook since he went back on the injured list earlier this month. The hard-throwing 25-year-old righty is dealing with a Grade 1 groin strain and also received an epidural to address back soreness. There is no timetable for his return. Fantasy managers shouldn’t expect him back until after next month’s All-Star break.

This seems like cause for concern. It’is definitely going to be a longer IL stay for Greene this time than when he missed two turns last month for the original groin injury.

Greene was removed from his start on Tuesday night after feeling a strain in his groin. This will now be the second time he’s landed on the injured list with the same injury, so we should expect the Reds to be a little more cautious with their ace this time around. There’s not yet a set timeline for Greene‘s absence, but it would not be a surprise if we didn’t see him back on the mound for the Reds until July.

Reds manager Terry Francona told reporters Greene was lifted after just 85 pitches in his third start back from the injured list after experiencing a similar groin issue. Not ideal. The flame-throwing 25-year-old righty struck out seven and allowed two runs over five innings. He’ll presumably undergo further evaluation and testing to determine the severity of the issue. It’s unclear whether he’ll make his next start on Monday against the Guardians at this juncture.

The juxtaposition of Greene and the soft-tossing Noah Cameron in this game was stark. While both pitched well, Greene was outdueled mostly because his pitch count climbed above 40 through his first two innings and he was never able to quite settle in. His fastball command was a bit erratic and it only forced four whiffs on 28 total swings. Instead, it was often far off the plate and able to be laid off of or caught too much of it and was fought off for a whopping 11 foul balls. He also took a line drive off his ankle in the fourth inning and stayed in the game after being looked at by trainers. This wasn’t a bad start by any means, but Greene has elevated his game so much this season that more strikeouts are expected. He’ll look to get back on track next time out against the Brewers.
