JJ Bleday hits first homer of the season Sunday versus Tigers

Reds outfielder JJ Bleday hit his first homer of the season in an 8-3 loss to the Tigers on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

Promoted from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, Bleday started in left field and homered and walked before being lifted for the righty-swinging Dane Myers on Sunday. The 2019 fourth-overall pick had a nice season with the A's in 2024, hitting 20 homers with 74 runs, 60 RBI, and .761 OPS in 159 games, and would be a fine fit in the hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park if he could find that form in the 2026 campaign.
