Hunter Greene Unlikely to Pitch This Season for the Reds

Terry Francona stated earlier this week that he does not expect Hunter Greene to return to the mound for the rest of the season. Following a meeting with Doctor Neil ElAttrache on Thursday, the outlook for Greene's return appears bleak. Although the situation may become clearer soon, it's advisable to remove Greene from the probable starters list, potentially for the entire season.

Greene's season debut was already delayed due to surgery in the spring, and he only started pitching around the end of June or beginning of July. Considering that the Reds are not in a playoff race and there have been rumors about the team receiving trade inquiries for Greene, it seems prudent not to rush his return. Ensuring Greene's health and clear medical reports should be a priority, especially if a potential trade in the off-season is on the table.
