Cincinnati Reds Trade Deadline Tracker
Can the Cincinnati Reds make enough moves to get out of their own way?
The Cincinnati Reds are facing a crucial decision as the 2026 Major League Baseball trade deadline approaches on Monday, August 3rd at 6:00 PM ET. Currently sitting at 53-58 and 16 games behind the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Central, the Reds are also 5.5 games out of the final NL Wild Card spot. With seven key players set to reach free agency, the team is expected to be actively involved in trade discussions.
Notable players like Brady Singer, Tyler Stephenson, Eugenio Suarez, Caleb Ferguson, Brock Burke, Pierce Johnson, and Nate Lowe are anticipated to be shopped aggressively. The Reds may also consider trading players with more team control, such as Hunter Greene or JJ Bleday, to bolster their farm system. As of the latest updates, the Reds seem to be leaning towards retaining Brady Singer, but the trade deadline has already brought about a trade involving Nathaniel Lowe being sent to the Cleveland Guardians in exchange for Alejandro Rivera.
