Fri Mar 24 202315:53Keston Hiura, Tyler Naquin Won't Make Brewers Roster
The Milwaukee Brewers informed out-of-options infielder Keston Hiura and non-roster outfielder Tyler Naquin on Friday that they will not make the team's Opening Day roster out of spring training. Hiura was scratched from Friday's Cactus League game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Milwaukee will now attempt to trade him before Opening Day next Thursday. The 26-year-old will likely go on waivers if no team wants to trade for him. He has decent power but doesn't make enough contact and strikes out far too often to be a lineup regular for most teams. Naquin, 31, could choose to opt out of his minor-league deal in order to latch on with another team in 2023. However, his poor performance at the plate this spring probably doesn't have many teams looking his way.

Tue Mar 7 202312:08Tyler Naquin Back In Cactus League Lineup
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Tyler Naquin (shoulder) is back in the Cactus League lineup on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox and right-handed starter Lance Lynn, starting in right field and batting fifth in the order. Naquin has missed a couple of games while dealing with minor shoulder discomfort, but he'll be back in the fold Tuesday. The 31-year-old has only played in three spring games to this point and has gone 2-for-8 with two doubles, one RBI and three strikeouts in nine plate appearances. He's hoping to win an Opening Day roster spot with Milwaukee after hitting a combined .229/.282/.423 with a .705 OPS, 11 home runs, 46 RBI, 47 runs scored and four stolen bases in 105 games with the Reds and Mets in 2022. If he makes the Brewers roster, he'll have limited playing time against right-handers.

He'll provide the Brewers with some additional outfield depth this season. As of now, Milwaukee's current outfield options on the team's 40-man roster include Garrett Mitchell, Blake Perkins, Christian Yelich, Tyrone Taylorand Jesse Winker.

Thu Jul 28 202222:26Tyler Naquin, Phillip Diehl Traded To The Mets
The New York Mets traded pitcher Jose Acuna and second baseman Hector Rodriguez to the Cincinnati Reds for outfielder Tyler Naquin and Phillip Diehlon Thursday. Naquin will join a crowded Mets outfield with Mark Canha, Starling Marteand Brandon Nimmo. The 31-year-old will provide the Mets with outfield depth, but he is not expected to see everyday at-bats like he was in Cincinnati. He is slashing .245/.305/.429 with six home runs, 31 RBI, 28 runs scored and three stolen bases over 55 games in 2022. Diehl will add bullpen depth and is expected to have a role in low-leverage situations. Naquin becomes mainly an option in deeper fantasy leagues, moving from the Reds to the Mets.

Thu Jun 30 202211:37Tyler Naquin Starting Rehab Assignment Thursday
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (quadriceps) is starting his minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Thursday. Naquin hasn't played in a major league game since May 31 due to a left quadriceps strain, so this could be a lengthy rehab assignment for the 31-year-old left-handed hitter. However, barring any setbacks on his rehab assignment, Naquin could return to the Reds outfield in early July before the All-Star break. Before his injury, Naquin was hitting a respectable .256/.315/.460 with five home runs, 22 RBI, 21 runs scored and three stolen bases in 150 plate appearances over 39 games, so he should at least return to a regular role against right-handed pitchers when he's activated.

Tue May 31 202220:53Tyler Naquin Suffers Left Quad Injury
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (quadriceps) was forced to leave the game on Tuesday against the Boston Red Sox in the fourth inning after suffering a left quadriceps strain. Aristides Aquino took over for Naquin in right field. Naquin went 0-for-2 in the contest before departing and is now slashing .255/.315/.460 in 150 plate appearances on the season with five home runs, 22 RBI, 22 runs scored and three stolen bases over 38 games. He's been especially hot of late, as he was hitting .294 (10-for-34) with three home runs, three RBI and a steal in 14 days before Tuesday's game. This could very well be an injury that sends him to the injured list, so fantasy managers need to be prepared to make some tweaks to their roster.

Wed May 4 202221:24Nick Senzel, Tyler Naquin Placed On The COVID-19 IL
Cincinnati Reds outfielders Nick Senzel and Tyler Naquin were placed on the COVID-19 injured list on Wednesday. Senzel and Naquin were initially in the starting lineup but were placed on the IL before Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. It's unclear if either player tested positive for the virus or if they will have to pass MLB protocols before being activated from the injured list. Albert Almora Jr. and Ronnie Dawson were called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move. TJ Friedl and Matt Reynolds replaced Senzel and Naquin in the lineup and should see an uptick in at-bats with both outfielders out.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin was placed on the 10-day injured list without an injury designation ahead of the team's game on Monday. The lack of an injury designation leads one to believe that Naquin could have tested positive for COVID-19, although that's just a guess. The team activated outfielder Nick Senzel from the injured list in a corresponding move. Naquin is hitting .273 with one homer, five RBI, four runs, and a steal through nine games.

Fri Apr 8 202216:45Tyler Naquin Hitting Second In Friday's Game
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin is batting second in Game 2 of the team's four-game series against the Atlanta Braves on Friday. He'll be going up against Braves right-handed pitcher Charlie Morton. Naquin was held out of the lineup for the team's season opener against the Atlanta Braves on Thursday as lefty Max Fried was on the mound. Aristides Aquino got the start for the team's season opener and served as the team's No. 2 hitter, but he's out of the lineup on Friday. Expect to see a platoon between the two sluggers at least throughout the early going of the year, with Naquin on the strong side of the platoon as he'll be primarily utilized against righties.

Over 127 games, he slashed .270/.333/.477 with 19 home runs, 70 RBI and 52 runs. He served as the team's primary center fielder when healthy this year. The team will now likely platoon TJ Friedl, Jose Barrero and Delino DeShields in center field the rest of the way.

Thu Sep 16 202111:37Tyler Naquin Out Of Lineup For Fourth Straight Game

Naquin is having a nice year offensively, slashing .270/.333/.477 with 19 HRs, 70 RBI, 52 runs, and five stolen bases over 127 games. Hopefully, he can get back on the field soon without taking a trip to the injured list. Shogo Akiyama will start in center for the second consecutive game. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere for outfield help, with Akiyama hitting just .200 with a .523 OPS over 87 games.

Sat Sep 11 202122:20Tyler Naquin Exits Saturday's Game
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (rib) left Saturday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals prematurely after colliding with teammate Jose Barrero in the sixth inning. He was replaced by Shogo Akiyama. According to Bobby Nightengale of the Enquirer, he experienced bruised ribs. There is no word on the severity or if he'll have to take a trip to the injured list. It's bad news for fantasy managers, as Naquin's been a pleasant surprise, slashing .272/.335/.480 with 19 HRs, 70 RBI, 52 runs, and five stolen bases across 126 games. If he does miss time, expect the trio of Aristides Aquino, Akiyama, and Delino DeShields to get more playing time.

The 29-year-old has recorded two hits and a walk in 12 plate appearances for the Reds this season. You're probably better off looking elsewhere for streaming help on Friday.
