- Age 25
- Bats: L
- Throws: R
Availability
Callihan was acquired from the Reds in early March in a deal that sent Kyle Nicolas to Cincinnati and spent the spring competing for a depth spot on Pittsburgh's Opening Day roster. He made his MLB debut with Cincinnati in 2025, appearing in four games and going 1-for-6 with an RBI.
Fantasy Impact
The Pirates optioned Callihan to Triple-A Indianapolis Saturday, though he could factor into Pittsburgh's roster as a utility option if needed during the season.
Left fielder/second baseman Tyler Callihan has been traded from the Cincinnati Reds to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for pitcher Kyle Nicolas.
Fantasy Impact
Callihan made his major league debut last season with Cincinnati and appeared in only four games before suffering a broken arm that ended his year. Prior to his call-up, Callihan was hitting .303 in 24 games with Triple-A Louisville. He was drafted in the third round of the 2019 MLB Draft and has spent six seasons in the minors, batting .262 with 37 home runs and 88 stolen bases. Callihan will likely open the year in Triple-A Indianapolis, but he could see some at bats in Pittsburgh at some point in 2026.
Reds manager Terry Francona said Tyler Callihan has been fully cleared from last year's injuries.
Fantasy Impact
Callihan orginally had forearm surgery to repair two broken bones last May. That was followed by left wrist surgery that ended his season early. He is now fully healthy in spring training with the Reds.
Reds infielder/outfielder Tyler Callihan is expected to miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgeries on his left forearm and left wrist.
Fantasy Impact
Callihan orginally had forearm surgery to repair two broken bones on May 6 followed by left wrist surgery that will likely end his season. He appeared in just four games for the Reds this season but hit .303 with four homers, six steals, and a .938 OPS in 24 games at Triple-A Louisville.
The Cincinnati Reds transferred Tyler Callihan from the 10-day IL to the 60-day IL on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Callihan underwent surgery on Tuesday to repair a fractured left forearm and will be shut down for 6–8 weeks. He’s expected to return sometime in the second half of the season. In a corresponding move, Connor Joe, acquired in a trade with the Padres, was added to the 40-man roster.
