Sam Moll

Moll had been designated for assignment by the Reds on Sunday after registering a 4.79 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and a 56/30 K/BB ratio over 65 appearances. He should land somewhere else soon.

With Graham Ashcraft returning from the injured list on Sunday, the Reds needed to clear a spot on their 40-man roster to accommodate him and Moll wound up being the odd man out. The 34-year-old southpaw had posted a 4.79 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and a 56/30 K/BB ratio over 65 appearances with the Reds this season. With so many teams in the market for bullpen help, he could attract interest on waivers.

Moll was ineffective with a 6.38 ERA in 23 appearances in 2025, but the left-hander will get a chance to earn a spot as a lefty specialist in the Cincinnati bullpen this spring.
