Singer gave up seven hits, walked two and struck out one. 2026 was a tough season for Singer. He finished with a career-worst 5.85 ERA, which was certainly not what he was hoping for heading into free agency.
He also walked four and didn’t strike out a single batter while throwing just 55 percent of his pitches for strikes and registering just a five percent swinging strike rate. It was a poor outing overall for Singer, who allowed three extra-base hits, including a home run, and gave up runs in three of the four innings he pitched in. He’ll take a 5.67 ERA into his final start against Atlanta next week.
Singer gave up eight hits, walked five and struck out five. He’s allowed 18 earned runs and four home runs over his last three starts. Singer has a 5.38 ERA and doesn’t need to be rostered in most fantasy leagues. He’s lined up to face the Dodgers at home next week.
Singer struggled badly with his command in this one, issuing a season-high six walks on the day while striking out three. After starting the day with three scoreless frames, the Reds got to him for three runs each in the fourth and fifth innings — including a two-run blast by Jake Bauers. Singer got six swings and misses on 97 pitches on the day, posting a CSW of 24 percent. Now 6-13 on the year, he’ll bring an uninspiring 5.03 ERA and 1.47 WHIP into a rematch against the Brewers in Milwaukee on Saturday.
Singer must not have realized that it’s only Chase Burns that the Reds want making shorter starts. He fell to 5-13 with a 4.83 ERA, and the team has lost each of his last five turns. He’ll likely face the Brewers on Sunday.
Singer got himself into trouble right away, hitting two batters and walking another to load the bases in the first inning. Drew Cavanaugh would plate two runs with a single before Singer could get out of the jam. He then tossed three scoreless frames before Rafael Devers took him deep for a solo homer in the fifth. Singer would record two outs in the sixth before departing at 91 pitches. He struck out five. The 30-year-old right-hander will take a 4.72 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, and a 112/45 K/BB ratio across 137 1/3 innings into a start against the Padres in Cincinnati on Monday.
Singer just missed a fourth consecutive start of exactly six runs and three runs allowed. He left in line for the win today after the Reds busted out for five runs in the bottom of the sixth, but it didn’t quite hold up. Maybe he’ll do a little better while starting in San Francisco next week.
It’s the third straight outing in which he’s recorded the bare minimum quality start. Singer departed with a one-run lead that was blown during a four-run eighth. He’s gone four straight outings without a victory, and things don’t figure to get much better from here. He’ll face the Cardinals next week.
Singer walked one and struck out three batters on the afternoon. The Nationals scratched out a pair of runs against him in the second inning, then Abimelec Ortiz tagged him for a solo homer in the third inning. Singer generated 10 swings and misses on 103 pitches on the day, registering a CSW of 27 percent. He’ll carry a 4.66 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and a 100/40 K/BB ratio (119 2/3 innings) into Saturday’s matchup against the Marlins.
He did so for the Reds, which is kind of a stunner. Singer, a free agent at season’s end, seemed about as likely as any pitcher to get moved before the deadline, but the Reds didn’t want to just give him away, say like the Giants did with Tyler Mahle, and thus kept him after failing to get any quality offers. Singer still has a 4.67 ERA for the year, but he’s at 2.87 in 11 starts since the beginning of June. He’ll likely face the Nationals on Sunday.
Singer stumbled in this game partially due to his own struggles and also because of two costly misplays by Elly De La Cruz. First, he booted a ball to start the fifth inning. Then, he tried a glove flip to start a double play immediately after, but it was a bit off target and developed too slowly. From there, Singer imploded. He walked three of the next five batters and gave up a run-scoring single between them. He struggled to find the zone all night with just a 39% zone rate and 58% strike rate as he simply could not place his sinker where he wanted to. That’s a tough end to July after Singer put up a 2.77 ERA with 23 strikeouts and seven walks through 26 innings up to this point this month. His next start will be determined by whether or not he is dealt before Monday’s trade deadline.
Singer was originally supposed to start on Tuesday, so when it was announced that he would not be starting, there was speculation that he was involved in a potential trade. While that may still come to fruition, it appears that he’s just being given an extra day of rest.
The Reds scored three times in the top of the seventh to give Singer a 5-3 lead and get him a second straight win after he lost eight of his previous nine decisions. The rebound here should give him some trade value leading up to the deadline. With his 4.53 ERA, he’s not a guy a team would be excited to have starting playoff games, but he can eat innings and help a good offensive team make it to October.
The 29-year-old right-hander racked up six strikeouts on the night and didn’t allow a base on balls. The Rockies scratched out a run against him in the fifth inning, then Willi Castro tagged him for a solo blast in the seventh. That was the full extent of the damage done against him. Singer piled up 17 swings and misses on 96 offerings in the game — 11 on his slider — while posting a strong CSW of 31 percent. He’ll try to keep the good times rolling as he carries a 4.56 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and an 82/31 K/BB ratio (96 2/3 innings) into Wednesday’s showdown against the Mariners in Seattle.
The Reds were shut out with Singer on the mound for the second straight time. This is probably Singer’s second-best start of the season. The best came three weeks ago when he shut out the Brewers for seven innings in a no-decision. He’s certainly been a below average starter with his 4.72 ERA, but he still deserves better than a 3-9 record at this point. He’ll probably pitch in Coors in his first start after the break.
Singer ran into some trouble early in the first inning, allowing three of the first five batters he faced to reach base, with Gunnar Henderson coming around to score on a throwing error by Tyler Stephenson as Henderson was trying to steal third. It would be the only run Singer would allow in the inning, but after pitching a scoreless second inning, Singer fell victim to a two-run homer by Samuel Basallo, who pushed the Orioles’ lead to 3-0 in the third. Singer would settle in after the blast by Basallo, but the damage had been done and the Reds offense mustered only four hits against Trevor Rogers and the O’s bullpen. His next start is scheduled for Thursday at home against the Phillies.
Singer tossed a scoreless first inning, then was hit for four runs in the second, including a three-run homer by Tyler Callihan. Ryan O’Hearn then took Singer deep for a solo homer in the fifth. That would be it for Singer, ending his day at 98 pitches with six strikeouts. The 29-year-old right-hander will take a 5.12 ERA, 1.54 WHIP, and a 65/25 K/BB ratio across 77 1/3 innings into a start against the Orioles in Cincinnati on Saturday.
Singer gave up two hits, walked two and struck out seven. Singer and his counterpart Brandon Woodruff combined for 13 scoreless innings in this one. The Reds and the Brewers both failed to score in the first nine innings, with the Brewers winning 2-1 in 10 innings. Singer has now allowed only four earned runs in his last 22 innings over his last four starts. He still has a 4.81 ERA and a 4.57 xFIP. Singer is lined up to face the Pirates on the road this weekend.
Singer was staked to a four-run lead by the second inning and was able to breeze through five relatively painless frames to pick up his third win of the year. He finished with five strikeouts, walked three batters and also hit Brett Baty twice. He’s allowed three earned runs or fewer in five of his last six starts dating back to May 12. He’ll face the division-rival Brewers at home on Monday.
Singer struck out five and walked one, lowering his ERA to 5.61. He took advantage of the strong matchup against a low-scoring offense in a great park. The veteran righty will be difficult to trust back at home against the Mets, however.
