The season began in inauspicious fashion for Cincinnati Reds prospects in the first place, as Jose Siri banged into the CF wall almost immediately as spring training began, wrecking his thumb and sending him to the shelf for months just one year after his breakout 2017 campaign. Then, Nick Senzel’s vertigo popped back up again, which derailed him for a few weeks before a finger injury ended his season prematurely at the end of June.
The hits just keep on coming, unfortunately. On Friday, the Reds announced that top pitching prospect Hunter Greene’s season is over, as a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching arm has barked something fierce.
