Dunn will have ulnar nerve transposition surgery on his right elbow Wednesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Dunn was already out for the season following internal brace surgery in August, and he's now set to undergo an additional operation on his elbow. The first surgery left Dunn a question mark for Opening Day next year, and it's possible Wednesday's procedure lengthens his timeline.

Reds' Matt McLain: Back in Cincinnati lineup
Rotowire
McLain (shoulder) will start at second base and bat seventh in Tuesday's game versus the Dodgers.
McLain missed the past three contests with a sore left shoulder, which is the same one he had surgically repaired in 2024. He could have to play through some nagging soreness down the stretch, but McLain feels well enough to give it a go Tuesday.

Reds' Juan Brito: Makes third straight start
Rotowire
Brito started at second base and went 1-for-3 in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Dodgers.
Brito filled in at second base for a third consecutive game as Matt McLain (shoulder) remained sidelined. The latest word on McLain, per MLB.com, is that he's improving and will not undergo imaging at this time. Brito has hit safely in all three starts, going 5-for-11 with one double, one home run and three RBI.
Reds' Nick Lodolo: Hurt by long ball in fifth loss
Rotowire
Lodolo (3-5) took the loss Monday against the Dodgers, striking out four while allowing four runs on three hits and four walks in seven innings.
Lodolo gave the Reds length but was hit hard when contact was made, serving up a pair of home runs on the evening. It was the longest outing of the season for the southpaw, who has issued multiple free passes in six straight starts and nine of his last 10. He'll take a disappointing 5.12 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 79:42 K:BB over 96.2 innings into his next scheduled appearance against the division-rival Cubs.
McLain (shoulder) remains out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.
McLain landed hard on his left shoulder on a diving attempt during Friday's game versus the Brewers, and he will now miss a third straight start. It's the same shoulder he had surgery on in the spring of 2024, and McLain noted over the weekend that he'll feel soreness in the shoulder occasionally on dives, per Mark Sheldon of MLB.com. He's considered day-to-day. Juan Brito will handle second base for the Reds on Monday.

Reds' Juan Brito: Doubles in win
Rotowire
Brito started at second base and went 1-for-4 with a double in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.
Brito covered second base for a second consecutive game as Matt McLain (shoulder) was unavailable after being scratched from Saturday's lineup. McLain's injury is not considered serious at this point, but it is to the left shoulder -- the same one he had surgery on previously. Brito is most likely to fill in at second base for as long as needed and he has made one start each at shortstop and third base since being called up earlier this month.
Pagan earned the save in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Brewers, allowing one hit and no walks with one strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning.
Pagan was called on to protect a one-run lead in the ninth inning and worked around a leadoff single to slam the door. The 35-year-old has now secured 17 straight save opportunities, and he's held opponents scoreless in 19 of 23 second-half appearances. For the season, he's 23-for-26 in save chances to go along with a 3.72 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 39:10 K:BB across 38.2 innings.

Reds' Eugenio Suarez: Homers again in win
Rotowire
Suarez went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.
Suarez gave the Reds a 3-2 lead with a three-run shot in the sixth inning. It was the 35-year-old's second straight game with a homer, and he's now gone deep four times and driven in nine runs in eight September contests. On the year, he's slashing .213/.307/.435 with 24 long balls, 68 RBI, 45 runs scored and a stolen base across 459 plate appearances.

Reds' Chase Burns: Goes three innings again Sunday
Rotowire
Burns did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Brewers, allowing two runs on two hits and three walks over three innings. He struck out five.
Burns was held to 56 pitches as the Reds continue to limit the young right-hander's workload down the stretch. Both of the runs charged to Burns came on a Joey Ortiz homer in the second inning, the 16th long ball he's given up this season. Overall, Burns' ERA now sits at 2.80 across 28 starts (151.1 innings) this year with a 1.15 WHIP and 181:54 K:BB. He's tentatively in line to face the Cubs at home his next time out.
McLain (undisclosed) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Milwaukee.
The 27-year-old was scratched from Saturday's starting nine for unspecified reasons and finds himself on the bench again Sunday. Juan Brito is picking up another start at second base in place of McLain.
Brito went 3-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's 13-9 loss to Milwaukee.
Brito recorded his second three-hit effort and launched his second home run in a Cincinnati uniform. In the seven games since being added to the roster, he's gone 7-for-19 with a double, two homers and eight RBI. With news of Matt McLain experiencing soreness in his left shoulder and needing a few days off, Brito is a natural fill-in at second base.
