The Reds acquired France and cash considerations from the Mariners on Monday in exchange for catcher Andruw Salcedo.

France had been designated for assignment by Seattle after managing a .662 OPS through 88 games. However, he's landed in about as good of a situation as possible, with hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park representing his new home park and regular at-bats seemingly available for the taking. France is under team control for 2025, but even if he finishes the 2024 campaign on a high note, he'll be a non-tender candidate this offseason.
