2026 Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the Reds in November of 2024.
Non-tendered by Reds
The Reds non-tendered Banfield on Friday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Analysis
Banfield appeared in just seven games for the Reds in 2025, during which he went 1-for-10 with six strikeouts, and he also turned in a .558 OPS across 270 plate appearances at Triple-A Louisville. He'll enter the open market now that Cincinnati has opted not to offer him a contract, and the 26-year-old will likely have to settle for a minor-league deal in free agency.
