The move comes as the trio works their way back from a lingering injury that sidelined them to start the season. The Reds optioned outfielder Jacob Hurtubise and infielder Neolvi Marte to Triple-A Louisville.

In his recent column for The Athletic, Rosenthal spotlighted St. Louis Cardinals manager Oli Marmol as a name to watch, not necessarily because of poor performance, but due to shifting power dynamics behind the scenes.
