Reds' Noelvi Marte: Contributes offense, defense in win
Rotowire
Marte went 1-for-4 with a single and a run scored in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Pirates.
Marte, who homered in a 4-3 extra-innings win Wednesday, helped keep the Reds' postseason hopes alive for a second consecutive day. He singled in Cincinnati's first run and scored what eventually was the game-deciding run in the fifth inning. He wasn't done. In the ninth inning, the converted infielder robbed Bryan Reynolds of a game-tying home run over the right-field wall and preserved the win. With Austin Hays (back) still unavailable, Marte should continue to play daily.

Reds' Noelvi Marte: Losing playing time
Rotowire
Marte is not in Saturday's lineup against the Cubs.
Marte started five games in a row prior to sitting Thursday against a righty, starting Friday against a lefty and now sitting again against righty Javier Assad. In both cases, Will Benson has started in right field with Austin Hays in left. Marte is hitting .149 with 18 strikeouts and three walks over his last 12 games, so he may continue to lose playing time against righties. The Reds are tentatively scheduled to face only right-handed starters in their final eight games of the regular season.

Reds' Noelvi Marte: Sitting Friday
Rotowire
Marte is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.
Marte will yield to Will Benson in right field on Friday for the second time in three games. Marte is in the midst of a 1-for-21 (.048) slump, and he's struck out 13 times during that stretch.
Marte went 1-for-5 with two RBI in Monday's 5-4 win over the Blue Jays.
The Reds squandered a lead in the top of the ninth inning but mounted their own comeback in the bottom of the frame. Marte finished it with a two-run single to walk off Toronto. He's scuffled the last week, batting .200 (6-for-30) with a 36.4 strikeout percentage, but Marte has delivered key hits during that run, including two home runs in addition to Monday's heroics.

Rotowire
Marte went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in a loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday.
A day after making his first career start in center field, Marte served as the Reds' right fielder Wednesday.

Marte came into the game in a 3-for-19 stretch at the plate, which was on the heels of an 11-game hitting streak during which he batted a robust .447.

Reds' Noelvi Marte: Makes first start in CF
Rotowire
Marte started in center field and went 1-for-4 in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Dodgers.
Marte, who transitioned from third base to right field midseason, made his first career start in the center field. Unfortunately for the Reds, it showed in the sixth inning when Marte misjudged a flyball that sailed over his head for a two-run double. He was later moved to right field, which has been his home on the diamond for the last month.
Marte went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an RBI double in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Angels.
Marte has logged four straight multi-hit efforts and has hit safely in 10 straight games. During the streak, he's gone 19-for-43 (.442) with three homers, six doubles and 11 RBI. He's been one of the Reds' most consistent hitters since returning from an oblique injury early in July. Marte is now slashing .302/.336/.527 with 10 homers, 39 RBI, 29 runs scored and seven stolen bases over 57 contests this season.
Marte went 2-for-4 in Sunday's 3-2 extra-inning win over Milwaukee.
Marte extended a hit streak to eight games, during which he's gone 15-for-34 (.441) with five doubles, two home runs, nine RBI and six runs scored. The transition from third base to outfield hasn't been an issue, as Marte is slashing .333/.333/.515 over 17 appearances in right field.
Marte went 2-for-5 with a solo homer during the Reds' 6-5 extra-innings loss to the Brewers on Saturday.

Marte has been hot at the plate as of late and is on a seven-game hitting streak, going 13-for-30 (.433) with five doubles, two home runs and nine RBI over that span.
