Hunter Greene season-ending elbow injury surgery
In early August 2026, 2026 the Cincinnati Reds placed right‑hander Hunter Greene on the 15‑day injured list due to for right elbow soreness, retroactively retroactive to August 2. The move also saw reliever Luis Mey Aug 2, and recalled from Triple‑A. Greene, who had returned to the rotation in July after offseason surgery to remove bone fragments, posted a 2‑2 record with a 6.83 ERA over Luis Mey. After five starts. Two days later, starts post‑July 4 (2‑2, 6.83 ERA), the Reds club announced that Greene would undergo a second elbow operation—a repair of a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament—effectively ending his 2026 season. The surgery follows the earlier arthroscopic procedure in March season and the recent placement casting doubt on his 2027 availability. Reds president of baseball operations Nick Krall confirmed the injured list. Team officials noted season‑ending surgery on Aug 7, noting the ligament was failing, failing. The procedure follows an arthroscopic surgery in March that removed bone chips. Greene finished his five starts with 33 strikeouts, nine walks over 27 2/3 innings. The Reds, sitting 56‑58 and Greene’s availability for 2027 remains uncertain as fourth in the Reds NL Central, will continue the season without him. their former 2024 All‑Star. Greene previously underwent Tommy John surgery in 2019 and has been regarded as the team's ace when healthy.
