2025 Fantasy Outlook
Spiers split time between the minors and majors in 2024, making 18 starts and an additional 13 appearances as a reliever. The right-hander excelled at Triple-A Louisville, where he was used as a starter, posting a 2.51 ERA while lowering walk and home run rates. His results in the majors, however, were less glamorous either as a starter or reliever. As a starter, MLB hitters crushed 16 homers off him in just 51.2 innings. The numbers were slightly better coming out of the bullpen, but those appearances were primarily as an inning-eater in low-leverage situations. He's likely to begin 2025 in the rotation at Louisville, as he did last season, and provide starting depth for the Reds. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Reds in March of 2025.
Goes 3.2 scoreless in rehab start
Spiers (shoulder) struck out five and gave up one hit and four walks over 3.2 scoreless innings in his rehab start for Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
Analysis
Though Spiers kept Columbus off the board during his start, he spotted just 39 of his 72 pitches for strikes in the outing, which was the third of his rehab assignment. On the shelf since April 20 due to a right shoulder impingement, Spiers appears to be close to fully stretched out at this point, but the Reds don't seem to have an opening for him in the big-league rotation. Spiers could be activated from the 60-day injured list coming out of the All-Star break to serve as a long-relief option for the big club, or the Reds could option him to Triple-A if they want to keep him in a starting role.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Spiers fared well in his second go-round at Double-A Chattanooga in 2023 and was needed for MLB innings during the Reds' push for the postseason in September. In the minors, the right-hander's walk rate inched up, but Speirs' improved location within the strike zone resulted in a better strikeout percentage and significantly lowered home run rate. Desperate for pitching help in the majors, the Reds summoned Spiers from Double-A for four appearances (two starts) that went predictably awry. Spiers' name will be mentioned when talking about the team's starting depth, but he could spend the entire season in the minors.
