Hunter Greene’s injury may force Reds into unthinkable Brady Singer decision

Hunter Greene's torn UCL will sideline him for most or all of 2027, leaving the Reds short a rotation arm. The team's decision not to trade Brady Singer at the deadline now appears prescient, as Singer could fill that gap if retained on a qualifying offer worth approximately $23 million. Singer struggled early in 2026 with a 6.18 ERA over his first 11 starts but has pitched significantly better since June 1 with a 3.45 ERA, making a one-year deal potentially reasonable value.
