• Reds' Spencer Steer: Undergoes surgery

  10/03/2026 • By RotoWire

  Steer recently underwent successful surgery on his right wrist, Mike Petraglia of CLNS Media reports. Steer suffered a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his right wrist in late July, and despite his best efforts to rehab the injury, he ended up sitting out the rest of the season. He's now gone under the knife to address the issue and is expected to be fully recovered by the time spring training begins.

• Reds' Spencer Steer: Cleared to increase activity

  09/12/2026 • By RotoWire

  Steer (wrist) was cleared Friday to begin range-of-motion activity, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. Steer was examined in Arizona by a specialist, who cleared him to increase activity. "All is going really well," manager Terry Francona said. "He will begin more range of motion [exercises], start to get a bat in his hand." That's good news for Steer, but it doesn't guarantee he'll return before the end of the regular season. "The goal is we want him to have a normal offseason," Francona said. "We might be pushing it if we try to do it by the end of the season." The Reds are considering having Steer play in the Arizona Fall League, which is typically reserved for prospects.

• Reds' Spencer Steer: Scheduled for examination

  09/03/2026 • By RotoWire

  Steer (wrist) is scheduled to be examined Sept. 11 to determine if he can begin swinging a bat, MLB.com reports. To this point, Steer has been limited to strengthening exercises. It seems the hope would be that Steer could rejoin the club in the final days of the regular season, but there's also been talk of him being shut down. Given where the Reds sit in the standings, there's an argument to be made for the latter scenario.

• Reds' Spencer Steer: Could miss remainder of season

  Steer (wrist) may not return before the end of the season, Patrick Brown of MLB.com reports. Steer had a follow-up visit with an orthopedic surgeon Friday. He has not yet been recommended for surgery, and the preferred path going forward is to avoid that if possible. "It still obviously is a problem," Steer said Friday. "I'm just trying to do everything I can to let the body heal, and then see what we've got in a couple of weeks." Steer is focusing on lower-body work for now, but given where the Reds sit in the standings and their chances of making the playoffs, the most prudent course of action is to not rush him back.
