Zach Maxwell coverage
5 Reds players who definitely won't be back and 3 who could surprisingly return in 2027
The Cincinnati Reds face roster decisions heading into 2027, with five players unlikely to return. Pitcher Pierce Johnson's club option won't be exercised after posting negative fWAR and an ERA near 5.00, while Ivan Johnson will be released following the acquisitions of Juan Brito and Oswaldo Cabrera. Michael Toglia failed to capitalize on his call-up and suffered a season-ending shoulder injury, while pitchers Zach Maxwell and Connor Phillips both struggled with command issues and are unlikely to survive the offseason cuts. The team could surprisingly bring back starter Brady Singer on a short-term deal below $15 million annually, as they lose Hunter Greene and need rotation depth.

The Cincinnati Reds promoted Michael Toglia from Triple-A Louisville to the active roster after he hit 22 home runs in the minor leagues. With roster expansion to 28 players coming September 1, the Reds have several candidates for call-ups, including pitcher Zach Maxwell, who has struggled with command, and infielder Edwin Arroyo, who hit .244 in 44 games earlier this season. Other potential September additions include catcher Will Banfield, pitcher Chase Petty, and infielder Michael Chavis, who has posted a .249 average with 21 home runs in 92 Triple-A games.
