I am guessing they’ll give Marte a handful of weeks in Dayton, more to assess his glove than anything.
I would move McLain to AAA, though.

The Reds do have an aversion of putting prospects in AAA.

EDLC with an inside the park HR tonight. It was a bullet over the center fielder's head and he made a Billy Hamilton-esque move to "steal" home.

The Reds have the potential to be scary in the next year to year and a half
Please don’t get hurt.
A triple is more democratic
The Reds Dominican Summer League team must have been wiped out by Covid. They haven't played a game since July 26th, as far as I can tell.
Justin Nicolino starts for Louisville today. After a horrible month of May (16.20 ERA in one start) and June (7.08 ERA in five starts), he bounced back with a respectable month of July (3.42 ERA in 4 starts).
Chase Petty will make his second start for Dayton. The first start was forgettable (6 ER in 3 IP).
Noelvi Marte was a unanimous selection for Player of the Month for July in the Northwest League. Check out these otherworldly numbers. Everett AquaSox (Mariners) infielder Noelvi Marte batted .384/.455/.709 and led the league in hits (33), runs (23), home runs (seven), RBIs (26), average (.384), total bases (61), on-base percentage (.455), slugging percentage (.709) and OPS (1.164). He was fourth in the league in doubles (seven) and recorded 10 multi-hit games. He was traded to the Cincinnati Reds in the Luis Castillo deal on July 30. Marte, 20, was signed by Seattle as an international free agent out of Cotui, Dominican Republic, on July 2, 2018.

Chase Petty's numbers for the night: 5 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 4 K.
Allan Cerda hit a bit of a wall in Chattanooga, but now is back doing what he does best - OPSing over .800.

Holy heck. De La Cruz just sent one over the moon.

De La Cruz with another hit and CES with a no-doubter HR to center field.

CES just hit a 3 run bomb to the right side of the CF grass for the Lookouts. 2nd hit for the night.

With last night's outburst, Encarnacion-Strand's career minor league numbers passed a bit of a milestone. His OPS went above 1.000.
His professional numbers: 111 games, 493 PAs, .322/ .387/ .613/ 1.000/ 30 HR/ 106 RBI/ 41 BB/ 128 K. That works out to a 25.9 K and an 8.3 BB rate.
According to Steamer, if you dropped him into a major league lineup right now, he's be 12% better than league average offensively the rest of the season.
