Reds Place Eugenio Suárez, TJ Friedl On Waivers

The Reds placed designated hitter Eugenio Suárez and outfielder TJ Friedl on waivers, with the 48-hour process resolving Thursday afternoon. Both players remain eligible to play for Cincinnati during this period and can be claimed by other teams, though the Reds hope a contender will take on their remaining salaries. Suárez, hitting .208 with 19 home runs this season, has $2.5 million remaining on his $15 million salary and will become a free agent after the season. Friedl has struggled significantly in 2026, batting .158 with three home runs across 253 plate appearances after spending time in Triple-A.
