The homer was pulverized, leaving his bat at 119.6 mph. Of course, Hinds’ power isn’t in question, but the Reds don’t seem to think he has much to offer in the majors. Perhaps he could help as a platoon guy against lefties, but the Reds acquired Dane Myers to fill that role.

Hinds heads back to the minors following Cincinnati’s influx of trade acquisitions. The 24-year-old all-or-nothing slugger was only up for a couple days while TJ Friedl was away on paternity leave.

Since it’s the result of TJ Friedl going on the paternity list, this will probably be a brief stay for Hinds, who is 5-for-42 with a 20/1 K/BB in the majors this season. He’s come in at .302/.381/.578 in Triple-A.

Although he was tearing it up in Triple-A, Hinds went 2-for-23 with no extra-base hits or walks and 10 strikeouts during his latest stint in the majors. He’s no closer now to claiming a permanent spot in the Cincinnati outfield than he was at the start of the year.

We’re confident Hinds will connect for tape-measure home runs regardless of where he plays, but he’s struck out at an astronomical rate against big-league pitching over the last two seasons, fanning nearly 37 percent of the time across 31 games in the majors. The 24-year-old offers an interesting blend of skills, but his omnipresent contact issues limit his appeal to extremely deep mixed leagues and NL-only formats as a cheap power source.

Hinds gave the Reds a 4-2 lead with his two-run homer in the ninth off Raisel Iglesias. It’s his first homer since being promoted back to Cincinnati on Wednesday. While his other skills are a question mark, there’s no denying he offers pop in his bat while playing in a hitter-friendly home park.

You might remember Hinds for pulling a Kyren Paris in his first stint of MLB action, only to pull a Kyren Paris a few weeks later and plummet back to earth. The 24-year-old plays in a friendly park and offers quality power, but he’s far from a guarantee to put up fantasy fireworks in 2025.
