Orioles' Austin Slater: Homers Wednesday
Austin Slater went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Mets.Slater was responsible for the Baltimore Orioles' first hit off Sean Manaea, a two-run, opposite-field homer in the sixth inning that tied the game 2-2. It's Slater's second home run of the year and his first in 12 games with Baltimore.

Orioles' Austin Slater: Logs first steal with new team
Austin Slater recorded a stolen base as a pinch runner in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Red Sox.Slater has gone 6-for-15 with two doubles, one RBI and two runs scored over nine contests with the Baltimore Orioles, but his theft Sunday was his first with his new team. He's had limited chance to make an impact as a short-side platoon player, and it's unlikely he serves as anything more than a fourth or fifth outfielder. For the year, he has a .211/.331/.260 slash line with one home run, three steals, 13 RBI and 16 runs scored over 151 plate appearances between the Giants, Reds and Orioles.

Orioles' Austin Slater: Dealt to O's
The Baltimore Orioles acquired Austin Slater and infielder Livan Soto from the Reds on Tuesday in exchange for cash, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.Earlier this month, Slater was traded from the Giants to the Reds, and he now finds himself with a third organization in the aftermath of the trade deadline. The righty-hitting Slater is known for his ability to hit lefties, but he's batting just .175 in those matchups this season. He's unlikely to see significant playing time for Baltimore.

Reds' Austin Slater: Starts against lefty
Austin Slater started in left field and went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored in Friday's 8-5 loss to the Nationals.Slater made his third start since joining the Cincinnati Reds -- all against opposing lefties -- and delivered his first two runs in a Cincinnati uniform. He's 2-for-13 since being acquired from San Francisco. Once TJ Friedl (hamstring) returns from the injured list, the outfield picture will become crowded. The lefty-hitting Friedl typically starts against pitchers of either handedness, so Slater will compete with Stuart Fairchild and Rece Hinds for at-bats.

Reds' Austin Slater: Joining new team Tuesday
Austin Slater won't be available to make his Cincinnati Reds debut until Tuesday's game against the Rockies, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.The Reds swung a deal late Sunday to acquire Slater from the Giants, and he apparently wasn't able to catch a flight from San Francisco to Cincinnati in advance of the Reds' series opener Monday versus the Rockies. While the Reds wait for Slater to report to the club, the team called up Rece Hinds from Triple-A Louisville on Monday to provide an extra body in the outfield after Stuart Fairchild (spine) joined fellow outfielders TJ Friedl (hamstring) and Nick Martini (thumb) on the injured list. Jake Fraley (personal) is also on the family medical emergency list, so Slater could have an opportunity to see meaningful work right away once he joins the Reds, even though he had largely been deployed as a short-side platoon outfielder throughout his eight-season run with the Giants.

Reds' Austin Slater: Shipped to Cincinnati
The Cincinnati Reds acquired Austin Slater and cash considerations from the Giants on Sunday in exchange for left-handed pitcher Alex Young, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.Slater will head to Cincinnati after producing a disappointing .200/.330/.244 slash line with one home run, nine RBI, 12 runs scored and two stolen bases over 112 plate appearances in 43 games with the Giants this season. With Will Benson struggling to a .187/.275/.365 slash line while striking out 40.1 percent of his plate appearances on the season, Slater could be called on to replace him in Cincinnati's everyday outfield moving forward, or at least platoon with him. In addition to Benson's ongoing struggles, the Reds are woefully shorthanded in the outfield at the moment with Nick Martini (thumb) joining TJ Friedl (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Sunday and with Stuart Fairchild missing Sunday's loss to the Tigers with a back injury. Jake Fraley (personal) also remains on the family medical emergency list.
