Reds' Stuart Fairchild: Heads back to bench
Fairchild is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.
Fairchild will retreat to the bench for the series finale with the Phillies after he had started in each of the Reds' past three games while going 1-for-11 with a walk and a run scored. Though Jake Fraley (illness) remains out of the lineup Thursday, the Reds are seemingly optimistic that he'll be back in action at some point during the weekend series versus the Rangers.

Reds' Stuart Fairchild: Steals bag in win
Fairchild went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-0 win over the White Sox.
Fairchild stole his fifth base in five attempts in what has been a part-time role to start the season.

Reds' Stuart Fairchild: Logs fourth steal
Fairchild started in right field and went 0-for-3 with two walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 10-8 win over Milwaukee.
Fairchild was originally scheduled to start in center field and bat fifth, but he was moved to right field and leadoff following a pregame injury to Jonathan India (leg), the Reds' normal leadoff hitter. The injury to India is not believed to be significant, so the leadoff role may be short-lived. Fairchild is 6-for-19 with three walks and four steals over seven games. He'll continue to see enhanced opportunities while TJ Friedl (wrist) remains idle.

Reds' Stuart Fairchild: RBI, steal in comeback win
Fairchild went 2-for-2 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 9-6 win over the Mets.

He remained in the game at DH and later had a bunt single and scored on a sacrifice fly as part of the Reds' five-run eighth inning that erased New York's lead. The righty-swinging Fairchild, who is 5-for-13 with three steals through five games, will likely be part of Sunday's starting lineup against southpaw Sean Manaea.

Reds' Stuart Fairchild: Steals two bases
Fairchild went 1-for-3 with a run and two stolen bases in Monday's victory over the Phillies.
Fairchild drew the start Monday against the left-handed Cristopher Sanchez as he's the weak side of a platoon with Jake Fraley currently. The 28-year-old managed to steal 10 bases over 244 plate appearances in 2023, so he is a speed threat whenever he plays. However, playing time could be difficult to come by in the Reds lineup due to the emergence of Will Benson and Nick Martini in the early going.

Reds' Stuart Fairchild: Launches third spring homer
Fairchild went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's spring game against the Giants.
Fairchild continued a strong spring, belting a two-run homer in the fourth inning. It was the third long ball in 19 at-bats for Fairchild. He's not been known for power during his time in the majors; however, the outfielder's hit 10 round-trippers over 331 career MLB at-bats, which roughly translates to a respectable 15 over a season of 500 at-bats. It'll be a challenge for him to see that amount of playing time, as Fairchild is expected to be the Reds' fifth outfielder.

Reds' Stuart Fairchild: Battling for roster spot
Fairchild is one of four Reds players battling for a likely last roster spot for Opening Day, along with Jose Barrero, Josh Harrison and Tony Kemp, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.
As Rosecrans elaborates, the Reds have significant infield depth, so Fairchild isn't hurt by his OF-only status. Moreover, he has a slight advantage by virtue of hitting right-handed, as TJ Friedl, Jake Fraley and Will Benson are lefty hitters.
