Brady Singer Back on Schedule After Blister Issue
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Brady Singer (finger) says the blister on his index finger is back to normal and said he's "right back on regular schedule," according to Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer. FOX 19's Charlie Goldsmith reports that Singer will pitch in an exhibition game on Monday in Milwaukee against the Brewers. The Reds pulled Singer early from his Cactus League game on Wednesday due to the blister, but there's nothing to worry about heading into the start of the 2026 regular season next week. In his first season in Cincy in 2025, Singer went 14-12 with a 4.03 ERA (3.98 FIP) and 1.24 WHIP with a 163:60 K:BB in 169 2/3 innings over 32 starts. Not only does Singer, who is a ground-ball pitcher, pitch in a pretty hitter-friendly environment, but he doesn't have a ton of strikeout upside with a 22.1% strikeout rate in his six big-league seasons. Singer is best used to round out starting rotations in deep-mixed and NL-only leagues with more of a stable floor as a late-round flier.
