Moran spent the 2022 season in Cincinnati, slashing .211/.305/.376 in 128 plate appearances at the big-league level.

Reds' Colin Moran: Out against righty
Moran is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals.
The lefty-hitting Moran could end up filling the large side of a platoon at first base while Joey Votto (shoulder), Mike Moustakas (calf) and Matt Reynolds (hip) are on the shelf, but Moran will find himself out of the lineup versus a right-hander (Dakota Hudson) in the second game of the series. Donovan Solano will replace Moran at first base.

Reds' Colin Moran: On bench versus lefty
Moran is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
After being called up from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, Moran started at first base and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the Reds' 6-2 win. The lefty-hitting Moran will be on the bench Sunday against Nationals southpaw Patrick Corbin, but Moran could see the bulk of the opportunities versus right-handed pitching while Mike Moustakas (calf) and Matt Reynolds (hip) are on the injured list.

Reds' Colin Moran: Contract selected by Reds
Moran's contract was selected from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Moran has spent the last two and a half months in the minors but will rejoin the Reds after Mike Moustakas (calf) was placed on the 10-day injured list. Moran hit .210 with four home runs, 22 RBI and eight runs over 37 major-league games earlier in the year, and he should have a chance to carve out playing time, primarily versus right-handed pitchers, in Moustakas' absence.

Moran cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Reds' Colin Moran: Optioned to Triple-A
Moran (head) was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Monday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Moran hasn't played since colliding with the Cardinals' Dylan Carlson on Saturday, but he was cleared of a concussion. The fact that he was optioned rather than placed on the injured list seemingly indicates he's healthy. His role was set to be reduced even if he remained on the roster, as Mike Moustakas returned from the COVID-19 injured list Monday.

Reds' Colin Moran: Avoids concussion
Moran isn't dealing with a concussion after exiting Saturday's game against St. Louis with a head injury, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Moran left the game after colliding with Dylan Carlson. He didn't start Sunday's series finale, but he isn't an everyday starter, so it's unclear to what extent his absence is injury-related.

Reds' Colin Moran: Optioned to Triple-A
Moran was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Friday.
The 29-year-old had a hot stretch in early May in which he homered four times over four games, but he lost out on consistent playing time after Joey Votto was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list last week. Moran should see more consistent at-bats in the minors and should be one of the top candidates for a call-up if one of the Reds' corner infielders gets hurt.

Reds' Colin Moran: On bench Wednesday
Moran is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.
Even with right-hander Kyle Hendricks taking the hill for the Cubs, the lefty-hitting Moran will find himself on the bench for the penultimate game of the series. Moran should still play against right-handed pitching more often than not until Jonathan India (hamstring) returns from the injured list.

Reds' Colin Moran: Sits against southpaw
Moran is out of the lineup for Sunday's game in Toronto.
Toronto is bringing lefty Yusei Kikuchi to the hill for the series finale, so the lefty-hitting Moran will retreat to the bench as the Reds stock up on extra right-handed bats. Joey Votto's recent return from the COVID-19-related injured list blocks Moran's path to playing time at first base moving forward, but Moran could see steady work against right-handed pitching either while playing third base or serving as a designated hitter.

Reds' Colin Moran: Belts fourth homer
Moran went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, three RBI and three runs during Wednesday's 14-11 win against the Brewers.
The 29-year-old didn't hit a home run through his first 19 games of the season, but he now has four long balls and 12 RBI across across the past four contests. Moran had a .463 OPS for the season prior to this four-game stretch, and he's managed to improve his slash line to .215/.289/.431.

Reds' Colin Moran: Collects six RBI
Moran went 2-for-4 with two home runs and six RBI in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Pirates.
Moran gave the Reds the lead with a grand slam off of Heath Hembree in the sixth inning. He later added a two-run shot in the eighth to provide a couple of insurance runs. It was the 29-year-old's first two homers of the year and he improved his season slash line to .208/.274/.340 with 15 RBI.

Reds' Colin Moran: Filling in for Votto
Moran will start at first base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Brewers.
He'll pick up his second start in a row at first base following Joey Votto's placement on the COVID-19 injured list earlier this week. So long as Votto is out, the lefty-hitting Moran should be a mainstay in the lineup versus right-handed pitching, but the Reds could choose to go with another at first base when lefties are on the mound for the opposition.
