Minor (shoulder) is expected to make a rehab start Tuesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Minor began a rehab assignment in mid-April, but it was paused after he experienced renewed shoulder soreness following a rehab appearance at Double-A Chattanooga. However, he threw a simulated game at High-A Dayton on Wednesday and has been cleared to return to minor-league games. It's not yet clear which affiliate he'll join next week, but he'll likely need to make at least two starts in the minors prior to rejoining the Reds.

Minor (shoulder) completed a simulated game Wednesday at High-A Dayton.

EDGE Analysis

The Reds are in the midst of a road trip, so Minor reported to one of the organization's local minor-league affiliates to take the next step forward in his recovery from the left shoulder injury that has kept him on the shelf all season. Assuming he reports no setbacks coming out of the simulated game, Minor could be cleared to restart his minor-league rehab assignment, which was previously paused in mid-April. Minor will likely need to make at least two starts in the minors before he's cleared to join the big-league rotation.

Minor (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Minor's rehab assignment was paused two weeks ago after he experienced renewed shoulder soreness following a rehab start at Double-A Chattanooga. However, he's now been cleared to resume throwing and is expected to throw off a mound again Saturday if Wednesday's bullpen session goes well. A better idea of the left-hander's status should come into focus based on how he feels following his pair of bullpen sessions.

Minor was pulled from his rehab assignment with Double-A Chattanooga due to renewed shoulder soreness following his start Wednesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was Minor's first rehab start after entering spring training with the shoulder issue, and he labored through the outing with six runs allowed over 1.2 innings. The veteran left-hander will likely be re-evaluated before the next steps in his rehab program are determined, but the setback will push back his potential season debut even further.

Minor (shoulder) reported shoulder soreness after his rehab outing with Double-A Chattanooga on Wednesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Minor struggled in the appearance, though that alone was not particularly alarming considering he did not appear in any spring training games. News of a setback is more concerning, and the end result could mean his return from the injured list is delayed. Minor's continued absence should increase the chances of Nick Lodolo remaining in the rotation.

Minor (shoulder) allowed six runs on five hits (including two homers) and a walk over 1.2 innings for Double-A Chattanooga, striking out one in the process. He also had some shoulder soreness after the start.

EDGE Analysis

Minor didn't appear in any spring training games, so while this result was disappointing, it also wasn't too surprising. It would be a shock if he returned next week.

EDGE Analysis

Minor threw 35 pitches in a simulated game Friday and will now continue his progress towards his first start of the 2022 season. Assuming he needs only one rehab outing, Minor could be activated as early as April 18 and remain on regular rest.

EDGE Analysis

Minor is on the 10-day injured list to begin the season, but manager David Bell is optimistic the southpaw will be able to return after a relatively minimal absence. It's encouraging Minor will face hitters once again Friday, and he'll presumably shift his focus toward building up his workload ahead of his return to game action.

Minor (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Minor is expected to rejoin the Reds in mid-to-late April, so his placement on the injured list to begin the 2022 campaign was expected. In his absence, Vladimir Gutierrez, Reiver Sanmartin, Hunter Greene and Nick Lodolo will round out Cincinnati's starting rotation behind Opening Day starter Tyler Mahle.
