4 years agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene, the No. 56 overall prospect in baseball, touched 104.3 mph in his debut with Triple-A Louisville on Thursday. However, it wasn't all great, as Greene also allowed four solo home runs and a walk while striking out eight over four innings of work. Since 2008, only five pitchers in the major leagues have reached 104 mph. Aroldis Chapman (67 times) and Jordan Hicks (12) are the only pitchers to reach that velocity more than once. The Reds No. 2 prospect allowed just nine runs on 27 hits and struck out 60 against 14 walks to go 5-0 with a 1.98 ERA over seven starts (41 innings) with Double-A Chattanooga before being promoted. Despite missing 2019 (Tommy John surgery) and 2020 (COVID-19 pandemic), Greene is one of the best overall pitching prospects in baseball, so he's worth stashing in dynasty/keeper leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

6 months agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) will come off the 15-day injured list on Sunday on a controlled workload to face the division-rival Pittsburgh Pirates. Greene is recovering from right-elbow soreness and threw 52 games in a simulated game on Tuesday. Still, the 25-year-old hasn't been fully stretched out, so despite the plus matchup against Pittsburgh this weekend, he won't be a recommended fantasy start for those still playing for a championship late in the year. If Greene doesn't suffer a setback on Sunday, he'll be more appealing in fantasy lineups for his final start of the year next week, which is lined up against the division-rival Chicago Cubs. Before his elbow injury, Greene took a step forward in 2024 as a first-time All-Star with a 9-4 record, career-best 2.83 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and a 162:53 K:BB in 143 1/3 innings over his 24 starts.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

6 months agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) is scheduled to throw a live batting practice session on Tuesday in Cincinnati, according to manager David Bell. It's possible Greene could return to the starting rotation and make two starts before the end of the 2024 season. Greene is working his way back from right-elbow soreness, and this will be his second live batting practice session. For fantasy managers still playing for a championship this year, the 25-year-old Greene could still be an asset down the stretch after going 9-4 with a career-best 2.83 ERA (3.42 FIP), a 1.02 WHIP and 162 strikeouts in 143 1/3 innings pitched over his 24 starts for the Reds this year. The former second overall pick in 2017 hasn't pitched in a big-league game since Aug. 13, though, so he could be on an innings limit when he returns from the injured list. UPDATE: Green threw three simulated "innings" of 20, 20 and 10 pitches and said he felt great. His next outing could be in the big leagues this Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

7 months agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow), who was put on the injured list on Aug. 17 as a precaution due to right-elbow soreness, said he felt good after throwing live batting practice on Sept. 11 in St. Louis. Greene threw around 25 pitches in that session and plans on having a longer session on Saturday in Minnesota. After that, the next step would be to pitch in a major-league game in Cincinnati during the team's Sept. 17-22 homestand. "My focus has been making sure that my mindset continues to be me versus you," Greene said. "I think that's really important when you're going through this process, is keeping that competitive mind and being able to kind of close that gap of, you know, kind of that feeling of being out for a month and not gracing a big league mound." The first-time All-Star should be lined up for a few starts before the end of the regular season in what has been a breakout season.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

7 months agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) is slated to throw bullpen sessions on Thursday and Sunday, according to manager David Bell. It's the first time that Greene has thrown off a mound since landing on the injured list in the middle of August due to right-elbow inflammation, so it's a big step in his recovery. The 25-year-old will eventually need to progress to facing live hitters and will probably need a minor-league rehab assignment, too, so fantasy managers probably can't expect him back in the big leagues for another couple weeks. There are only a few weeks left in the 2024 regular season as well, so there's no guarantee that Greene is going to make much of a difference in fantasy down the stretch. The former second overall pick in 2017 has had a successful 2024 season overall, though, going 9-4 with a 2.83 ERA, a 1.02 WHIP and 162 strikeouts over 143 1/3 innings in his 24 starts.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
