	Spencer Steer will have his wrist re-evaluated on Monday. Ari Koslow Fri, Aug 7th	Jared Young went 1-for-2 with a walk, one run scored, two RBI and two stolen bases in Thursday's 13-6 win over the Cleveland Guardians. Nicholas Rodriguez Thu, Aug 6th
	Spencer Steer will be re-evaluated in two weeks. Ari Koslow Mon, Jul 27th	Jared Young went 2-for-4 with a home run, one run scored and an RBI in Tuesday's 4-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers. Nicholas Rodriguez Wed, Jul 22nd
	The Reds are placing Spencer Steer on the injured list after suffering a hand/wrist injury on Sunday. Ari Koslow Mon, Jul 27th	Since coming off the injured list on May 26, Young has gone 12-for-46 with a .911 OPS while playing nearly every day at first base. He tied the game 4-4 with an RBI single in the fifth inning Thursday before the Mets held on for the win. Bruno Mulé Fri, Jun 12th
	Spencer Steer left Sunday's game early with an apparent hand injury. Ari Koslow Sun, Jul 26th	Young is batting .313 with a .945 OPS across 55 plate appearances this season and is expected to continue receiving steady starts against right-handed pitching. All three of his home runs have come over his last six games, a stretch that also includes three multi-hit efforts. Bruno Mulé Sat, Jun 6th
	Spencer Steer is back in the Reds lineup on Wednesday against the Mariners. Ari Koslow Wed, Jul 22nd	Jorge Polanco (Achilles) could return from the injured list as soon as this week, which would cut into Young's time at first base and DH against right-handed pitching. Since returning from the IL himself on May 26 following left knee surgery, Young has gone 4-for-16 with two home runs, five runs, and three walks across six appearances. Bruno Mulé Tue, Jun 2nd
