Hunter Greene Throws Four Shutout Innings in Rehab Start
Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (elbow) had a strong minor-league rehab start on Tuesday for Triple-A Louisville, tossing four shutout innings with only two hits allowed, one walk, and three strikeouts against the Triple-A St. Paul Saints. Greene threw 64 pitches during the outing and topped out at 99.5 mph, another sign that he will rejoin the Reds' starting rotation for his 2026 season debut before the end of June. Manager Terry Francona said that the 26-year-old was scheduled to throw around 75 pitches on Tuesday, so he came a little short of that target after throwing 54 pitches in four scoreless innings in his first rehab start last week in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. Even with another rehab started expected for Greene, he could be back before the calendar flips to July, and he's an absolute must-stash in fantasy baseball leagues if he's available on the waiver wire. Greene is a hard-throwing former second overall pick in 2017 with ace upside when he's fully healthy, and somehow he's available in over 30% of Yahoo leagues.
