  09/14/2024 • By RotoWire

  Martini (thumb) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Saturday. Martini had originally been targeting Tuesday as the start date for his assignment, so it's possible the 34-year-old is ahead of schedule in his recovery.

• Reds' Nick Martini: Moved to 60-day IL

  07/13/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Reds transferred Martini (thumb) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Saturday. Martini underwent thumb surgery earlier in the week, and Reds manager David Bell said at the time that the 34-year-old would be out until at least September. His move to the 60-day IL confirms as much, as Martini isn't eligible to be activated until Sept. 6. The move also frees up a spot on Cincinnati's 40-man roster for right-hander Tony Santillan, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Louisville.
