The Reds announced Tuesday that theyve selected the contract of right-hander from Triple-A Louisville. Cincinnati also recalled southpaw from Louisville. Left-hander and righty were optioned to Triple-A in their place. The Reds already had an open 40-man roster spot after releasing . Their 40-man roster is now at capacity. Benschoter, 27, Kenrich Williams Jersey was an undrafted free agent out of Michigan State back in 2021. Hes spent the past four seasons climbing Cincinnatis minor league ranks, reaching Triple-A late last season. That first run at the top minor league level didnt go well, but the 63, 215-pound righty has had a better showing in 2025. Benschoter has pitched 51 innings 17 relief appearances, four starts and logged a 4.06 ERA with a 21.6% strikeout rate, 6.4% walk rate and 51% ground-ball rate. Benschoter relies heavily on a four-seamer thats averaged 93.4 mph in 2025, combining that pitch with a sinker, slider, cutter and seldom-used curveball to round out his arsenal. He worked primarily out of the rotation in the lower minors but moved into more of a hybrid role in 2024. Hes progre sively moved more and more toward a multi-inning relief role in 2025. Even in his four starts this season, Benschoter has pitched a combined 12 1/3 innings. Hes most commonly been used in relief for two to four innings at a time. Top prospect lasted only one-third of an inning in yesterdays drubbing at the hands of the Red Sox, forcing the Cincinnati bullpen to cover the rest of the game. The Reds turned to and the now-optioned La Sorsa and Phillips for two-plus innings apiece. All three men threw at least 31 pitches. That understandably prompted some moves to freshen up the relief corps. If todays game gets out of hand one way or another, Benschoter would seemingly be an option for a long relief stint. He last pitched a week ago and should be able to cover several innings if need be. Eric Bledsoe Jersey
