Latest news
Steer recently underwent successful surgery on his right wrist, Mike Petraglia of CLNS Media reports.
Steer suffered a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his right wrist in late July, and despite his best efforts to rehab the injury, he ended up sitting out the rest of the season. He's now gone under the knife to address the issue and is expected to be fully recovered by the time spring training begins.

Steer will undergo right wrist surgery next Wednesday, Gordon Wittenmyer of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Steer has missed most of the second half with a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his right wrist. He tried rehabbing the injury and was ramping up baseball activities recently, but ultimately the 28-year-old was unable to avoid surgery. Steer is expected to be 100 percent recovered in time for the start of spring training.

The Reds transferred Steer (wrist) to the 60-day injured list Friday.
The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Oswaldo Cabrera, who was claimed off waivers. Steer has been ramping up his activities recently as he works his way back from a partial tear of the tendon sheath in his wrist. He will be eligible for activation Sept. 25, but there's a good chance Steer's season is over.

Steer (wrist) has been taking dry swings and is preparing to hit off a velocity machine next week, MLB.com reports.
Steer, who is unlikely to play again during the 2026 regular season, will ramp up to the velocity machine next week while the Reds finish the regular season on the road in Atlanta and Toronto. Following his work on the machine, Steer is ticketed for Arizona where he may get at-bats in the Arizona Fall League.

Steer (wrist) was cleared Friday to begin range-of-motion activity, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
Steer was examined in Arizona by a specialist, who cleared him to increase activity. "All is going really well," manager Terry Francona said. "He will begin more range of motion [exercises], start to get a bat in his hand." That's good news for Steer, but it doesn't guarantee he'll return before the end of the regular season. "The goal is we want him to have a normal offseason," Francona said. "We might be pushing it if we try to do it by the end of the season." The Reds are considering having Steer play in the Arizona Fall League, which is typically reserved for prospects.

Steer (wrist) is scheduled to be examined Sept. 11 to determine if he can begin swinging a bat, MLB.com reports.
To this point, Steer has been limited to strengthening exercises. It seems the hope would be that Steer could rejoin the club in the final days of the regular season, but there's also been talk of him being shut down. Given where the Reds sit in the standings, there's an argument to be made for the latter scenario.
