Sat Sep 9 2023 | 10:32 | Jonathan India Begins Rehab Work, Set For Tuesday Return |
The Cincinnati Reds sent second baseman Jonathan India (foot) for a quick rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville on Friday. The 26-year-old has been missing since late July due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot, but he is likely to be activated prior to Tuesday's series opener against the Detroit Tigers if all goes well. Cincy will welcome back India with open arms since infielder Matt McLain (oblique) is also injured. India is slashing a formidable .267/.354/.453 with 20 home runs, 77 RBI, and 12 stolen bases in 585 trips to the dish. Spencer Steer has been holding down the fort at the keystone in the meantime. |

Wed Sep 6 2023 | 12:18 | Jonathan India Could Start Rehab Assignment On Friday |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) could start a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Friday, with a return from the 10-day injured list on Sept. 12 a possibility. India's foot is pain-free, but he's had a deliberate buildup to try and prevent a re-injury of plantar fasciitis in his left foot that would likely end his season prematurely. The Reds could really use India back, especially with rookie infielder Matt McLain (oblique) also currently on the injured list. Until India is able to return, the Reds will continue to roll with Spencer Steer at the keystone. India was having a fine season before his foot injury, hitting .251/.336/.409 with 14 home runs, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 394 at-bats. |

Sun Sep 3 2023 | 18:45 | Jonathan India Nearing Rehab Assignment |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) could begin a rehab assignment within the next week, according to manager David Bell. The 26-year-old has been on the injured list since July 30 due to plantar fasciitis. The good news is that India progressed to running on Monday. Bell mentioned that India is likely going to need at least three rehab games before returning to the big league roster. That being said, fantasy managers might have to wait a little longer before getting India back. Spencer Steer figures to get more playing time at second base until India is ready to return. |

Thu Aug 24 2023 | 12:23 | Jonathan India To Begin Running |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) took batting practice at Angel Stadium on Tuesday and then left to continue working out at the team's spring training complex in Arizona. He was scheduled to start running on an anti-gravity treadmill, which will enable him to not put pressure on his left foot while resuming a running program. India is scheduled for another MRI exam on Thursday. If the 26-year-old is able to avoid another setback with his plantar fasciitis, he should be able to return to the Reds starting lineup for the final month of the regular season in September. When he's ready, he should return to regular duties at the keystone after hitting .251/.336/.409 with 14 home runs, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 394 at-bats in 2023 before his injury. |

Fri Aug 11 2023 | 16:50 | Jonathan India Suffers Setback, Shut Down For Two Weeks |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) felt pain while running and is getting a second opinion on his injured left foot. As a result, he's been shut down from running for at least two weeks, according to manager David Bell. India will now have an early-to-mid-September return as his likely target. The 26-year-old was expected to return from the injured list earlier this week, but that obviously didn't happen, and now India won't return until next month. It's a tough break for fantasy managers expecting to get India back this week, as he's had a strong season with a .251/.336/.409 slash line and 14 home runs, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 394 at-bats. The Reds will likely continue to use rookie Matt McLain at the keystone until India is able to return. |

He's been out since the end of July with left-foot plantar fasciitis, but it's a minor ailment that shouldn't slow him down once he's back. |

Sat Aug 5 2023 | 12:40 | Jonathan India Expected To Be Activated Tuesday |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) has increased his baseball activities this week after some rest and is expected to be activated from the injured list when he's eligible to return on Tuesday. India was scratched from the lineup on July 29 with left heel pain and was placed on the IL with left-foot plantar fasciitis. The injury was considered minor, though, so India has a good chance to return and pick up where he left off for the Reds next week. The 26-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year should be rostered in all fantasy leagues in the midst of a bounce-back season for the surprising Reds in 2023. India will be returning to a .251/.336/.409 slash line with 14 home runs, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 394 at-bats. |

Fri Aug 4 2023 | 20:42 | Jonathan India Expected To Return Early Next Week |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) has resumed baseball activities this week and is expected to return from the injured list early next week, according to manager David Bell. India is dealing with mild plantar fasciitis in his left heel, and he's lining up to miss the minimum time on the 10-day injured list. Rookie Matt McLain has shifted over to second base and should continue playing there for the Reds until India returns next week. India is the Reds' starting second baseman when healthy, and he's having a nice bounce-back year in 2023 by hitting .251 (99-for-394) with 14 home runs, 20 doubles, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 103 games. There's no reason why he should be available on the waiver wire due to his injury. |

Thu Aug 3 2023 | 12:52 | Jonathan India Increases Baseball Activities |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (heel) took ground balls on the field on Wednesday as he increased his baseball activities following some rest after he was placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday due to plantar fasciitis in his left heel. The good news is it is believed to be a minor issue, and the Reds are hoping India will miss the minimum amount of time and rejoin the club on Aug. 8, when he's eligible to come off the IL. The 26-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year in 2021 has bounced back in 2023 after a down season in 2021. In his 103 games for the Reds so far this season, he's slashing .251/.336/.409 with 14 home runs, 20 doubles, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 453 trips to the plate and 103 games. India should be stashed in most fantasy leagues with his return likely coming next week. |

Sun Jul 30 2023 | 15:02 | Jonathan India Forced To 10-Day Injured List On Sunday |
The Cincinnati Reds have sent second baseman Jonathan India (foot) to the 10-day injured list due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Outfielder Stuart Fairchild was recalled from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding transaction. It seems the 26-year-old India's MRI from Saturday didn't reveal the most encouraging results, so he'll retreat to the IL to mend his balky foot. It comes at a key juncture for the Reds, who may have been dangling India around in trade talks recently with rumors swirling around his name in that respect since the spring. Matt McLain now figures to operate as Cincy's primary second baseman, pivoting Elly De La Cruz to shortstop while other Reds shuffle around the diamond for however much time India needs to miss. India brings a .251/.336/.409 triple-slash line with 14 home runs, 52 RBI, 12 stolen bases, and 68 runs scored in 394 at-bats to the shelf. |

Sun Jul 30 2023 | 10:30 | Jonathan India Heads For MRI On Saturday |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (heel) went through an MRI after being out of Saturday's lineup against the Los Angeles Dodgers with a lingering heel issue.

India has enjoyed a wonderful rebound campaign overall, but has struggled a bit lately while going 3-for-18 in his last five games. The former first-round pick should be considered day-to-day, and it wouldn't be surprising to see India out of Sunday's lineup for the series finale in LA. Stay tuned. |

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (heel) was scratched from Saturday's lineup against the Dodgers due to left heel pain. He has started at second base in eight of the last 10 games.

India's next chance to return to the lineup will be Sunday for the series finale against the Dodgers. Matt McLain will handle second duties for the Reds while India is sidelined. |

Mon Jul 24 2023 | 10:04 | Reds Willing To Trade Jonathan India |
Cincinnati Reds infielder Jonathan India could be on the trade block as the trade deadline quickly approaches. The 26-year-old appears to be the odd man out as the Reds continue to call up their young infield prospects. That being said, the Reds appear to be ready to move India in order to open up a full-time role for one of their younger players. This season, India is hitting .251/.338/.411 with 14 home runs and 51 RBI in 98 games. He should draw plenty of interest from around the league. |

Wed Jul 19 2023 | 15:40 | Jonathan India Getting Rare Breather Wednesday |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India is getting a rare night off on Wednesday night against the San Francisco Giants and right-hander Ross Stripling. India's 424 plate appearances on the season are the seventh-most in all of baseball while he's having a slightly below-average season at the dish. The 26-year-old is hitting .250 with a .748 OPS and 98 wRC+ across 93 appearances this season but fantasy managers should be satisfied with his 14 home runs and 12 stolen bases from the second-base position. However, India has struggled in June and July, while Matt McLain will take over at second base Wednesday night in Cincinnati. |

Mon Jul 10 2023 | 14:42 | Jonathan India Heads Into All-Star Break Cold |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India did hit two home runs on the Fourth of July last week, but he's heading into this week's All-Star break with a .200 average (7-for-35) with three long balls, eight RBI, five runs scored and nine strikeouts in nine games so far in the month of July. Despite the recent cold streak, the 26-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year had a pretty solid first half of the season for the first-place Reds. In 91 games played (404 plate appearances), he hit .250 (87-for-348) with 13 home runs, 17 doubles, 49 RBI, a career-high-tying 12 stolen bases and 65 runs scored. With some intriguing young players with high ceilings now surrounding him in the lineup, India has become interesting in fantasy again after a disappointing sophomore year in 2022. |

Sun Jun 25 2023 | 12:27 | Jonathan India Starting On Bench Against Braves |
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India will start on the bench on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves. India deserves a day of rest after starting the last 49 games for the Reds. He's also cooled off offensively, going 6-for-39 (.154) with three home runs, six RBI and 11 strikeouts in the last 10 games. Overall, though, the 26-year-old second baseman is having a fine season by hitting .261 (77-for-295) with 10 home runs, 17 doubles, 40 RBI, a career-high-tying 12 stolen bases and 58 runs scored in 342 trips to the plate and a league-high 77 games played.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a stolen base in the team's 5-4 extra-inning loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday. Perhaps the 26-year-old is feeling the rumblings surrounding both top prospect Elly De La Cruz's seemingly imminent call-up coinciding with trade murmurs involving India's name. India is immersed in a prolific fantasy season, though, hitting .278 with 47 runs scored, six taters, 26 RBI and nine swipes. The former NL Rookie of the Year trails only Marcus Semien and Mookie Betts in total ranking at second base in 5x5 category mixed leagues. India's spent more time in the No. 3 spot of the Reds lineup lately, which should only amplify his RBI opportunity going forward. |
