Since his absence, the bullpen’s ERA ballooned to 5.59, the second-worst in baseball. With nine different pitchers splitting saves and Pagán still leading the team with six despite not pitching, the Reds’ late-inning woes are glaring. The team’s offseason bullpen investments — including Pagán’s $20M deal and signings like Brock Burke and Pierce Johnson — are now sidelined by injuries. But there’s hope: Pagán threw his first live BP session since getting hurt, and if his next session goes well, a rehab assignment could be imminent. For Cincinnati, this is a make-or-break moment as they fight to stay alive in the playoff race while waiting for their closer to return.
