Overview
- The Reds announced Greene was placed on the 15-day injured list for right elbow soreness and recalled right-hander Luis Mey from Triple-A as the corresponding roster move.
- The team has not released a timeline for Greene’s return or offered further medical details.
- Greene returned from a midseason absence and made five starts this year, posting a higher ERA and showing inconsistent results in limited work.
- Front-office discussions had included Greene as a potential trade candidate before the deadline, but he remained with Cincinnati because the club controls him through 2028 with a 2029 option.
- Greene’s recurring elbow issues and the fact he has reached 25 starts in a season only once raise durability concerns that could change rotation usage and increase reliance on Chase Burns and internal depth if the injuries persist.
