Scott Heineman

The Reds have released outfielder Scott Heineman from Triple-A Louisville. The 28-year-old is expected to continue his baseball career in Japan.

Fantasy Impact

From the looks of it, Heineman found a better role in Japan and requested his release from the Reds. The former fifth-round pick has 68 games of MLB experience with the Rangers and Reds from 2019-21. Through 17 games in Triple-A this year, he was slashing .279/.353/.410 with one homer, four RBI, five walks, 12 strikeouts, and four stolen bases.

Scott Heineman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday against Colorado.

Fantasy Impact

Heinemen took Kyle Freeland deep in the second inning. Heineman has been nothing more that a depth player for the Reds this season, batting just .111 in 18 at-bats.

Scott Heineman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's loss to Milwaukee.

Fantasy Impact

Heineman was called up in the wake of Nick Senzel and Mike Moustakas being placed on the injured list. He figures to fill a utility outfield role while those two are on the shelf.

Scott Heineman went 1-for-3 with a one-run double, a walk, and a stolen base in a loss to the Padres. He struck out twice on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Heineman is having a pretty terrible start to the season, batting just 4-of-25 this season. He's swiped two bases but he shouldn't be anywhere near your fantasy radar.

Scott Heineman went 2-for-2 with a pair of runs, a stolen base and three walks in Saturday's 9-4 win over the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

Heineman is slashing .213/.306/.373 with two homers, seven RBI and eight runs scored in 25 games. The stolen base was the first of his major-league career after he was caught stealing on his first two attempts.
