Josh Staumont

Josh Staumont is returning to the Cincinnati reds on a minor league deal. The contract includes an invitation to MLB Spring Training.

Fantasy Impact

Staumont returns for his second season in the Reds' organization although a preseason injury kept him out of action entirely in 2025. The righthander last appeared in the big leagues in 2024 when he pitched 25 games for the Twins. He has pitched parts of six major league seasons and has a 3.97 ERA in 192.2 innings. He'll be given an opportunity to claim a bullpen spot for the Reds during Spring Training.

The Reds reassigned Josh Staumont to minor league camp on Saturday, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Staumont threw one scoreless inning this spring—two strikeouts, one walk—and after a 3.70 ERA over 24.1 innings with the Twins in 2024, he’ll open 2025 at Triple-A Louisville with a shot at Reds bullpen stints. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can keep him on the radar; he’s a call-up candidate.
