• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Turns around rough spring

  Rotowire Mar 26, 2026

  Abbott allowed seven hits and one walk while striking out four over six scoreless innings, picking up a no-decision in Thursday's 3-0 loss to Boston. Abbott pitched in and out of trouble in three of his innings, but he matched zeros with Boston's Garrett Crochet on the scoreboard. The seven hits off the Reds' left-hander were all singles, four of which didn't leave the infield. It was an encouraging outing for Abbott, who had a shocking 11.72 ERA in spring training. He's become the team's No. 1 starter with Hunter Greene (elbow) unavailable and on the 60-day injured list.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Roughed up again

  Rotowire Mar 17, 2026

  Abbott allowed eight runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out three over two innings in Monday's spring start against the Diamondbacks. Abbott was roughed up again in his fifth Cactus League start and needed 76 pitches to get those six outs. He was pulled with none out in the third inning to ensure a fourth up-and-down, and then he was chased early in the fourth after giving up two hits and a walk. The left-hander is having a difficult spring with a 13.85 ERA and has allowed multiple runs in all five spring outings. Abbott will get one more start and hopes to figure out his mechanics before taking the ball Opening Day next week against the Red Sox.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Deals with traffic Wednesday

  Rotowire Mar 12, 2026

  Abbott allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five over 3.2 innings in Wednesday's spring start against Milwaukee. Abbott labored early and required 69 pitches to get those 11 outs in his fourth Cactus League start and first since being tabbed to start Opening Day, March 26, against the Red Sox. After allowing a walk and three hits (including a two-run home run) in a 25-pitch first inning, he got into immediate trouble in the second when the first two batters singled. The lefty squelched the threat with a pick-off and double-play grounder. Abbott then had less eventful third and four innings.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Lining up for Game 3

  Rotowire Sep 30, 2025

  Abbott will start Game 3 of the National League Wild Card Series against the Dodgers, if necessary, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports. Cincinnati is set to deploy Hunter Greene in Game 1 and Zack Littell in Game 2, setting up Abbott to pitch in Game 3 if the series goes beyond two matchups. The 26-year-old southpaw put together a solid finish to the 2025 regular season, turning in a 2.78 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with 19 strikeouts over 22.2 frames during his final four starts.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Tosses 4.2 scoreless frames

  Rotowire Sep 21, 2025

  Abbott did not factor into the decision in Sunday's game against the Cubs, allowing five hits and one walk while striking out two across 4.2 innings. Abbott and the Reds' bullpen kept the Cubs off the board in Sunday's series finale, and the 26-year-old southpaw would have been in line for the win had he recorded one more out in the fifth inning. Abbott has failed to complete five innings in four of his last six starts, and over that span he has posted a 4.94 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 33:8 K:BB across 31 innings. He's slated to make his final start of the regular season next weekend on the road against the Brewers.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Fans seven during loss

  Rotowire Sep 16, 2025

  Abbott (9-7) took the loss against the Cardinals on Tuesday, allowing three runs on eight hits over 4.2 innings. He struck out seven. The left-hander gave up an early sacrifice fly before surrendering a two-run homer to Thomas Saggese in the third inning, and he received no run support from the Reds' offense. Abbott needed 96 pitches to get through 4.2 frames, marking the third time in his last five outings he's failed to complete five innings -- a stretch marked by inconsistency despite flashes of dominance. The 26-year-old will take a 2.88 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 143:42 K:BB across 156.1 innings into his next scheduled start against the Cubs.

It was an encouraging rebound after the southpaw surrendered six earned runs a week ago, though he remains winless in eight starts since the All-Star break. He'll carry a 2.65 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 125:39 K:BB across 139 innings into a home matchup with the Mets next weekend.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Shelled in short outing

  Rotowire Aug 24, 2025

  Abbott (8-4) took the loss against the Diamondbacks on Saturday, giving up seven runs (six earned) on eight hits while striking out six over four innings. The left-hander was hit hard from the jump, surrendering four consecutive hits and three runs in the first inning. The outing didn't get better from there as Abbott served up a two-run homer to Lourdes Gurriel in the third and another two-run shot to Geraldo Perdomo an inning later. The rough outing came just six days after Abbott delivered one of his best starts of the season, when he tossed seven scoreless innings against Milwaukee. The 26-year-old still carries an impressive 2.62 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 118:35 K:BB in 134 innings and will look to get back on track in his next scheduled start against St. Louis.

Across 130 innings this season, Abbott has a 2.28 ERA and 1.08 WHIP, which ranks second and 14th best, respectively, among qualified starters in the majors. His next start is slated for next weekend on the road against the Diamondbacks, when he'll aim to collect his first win since July 9 against the Marlins.

The lefty kept things close through six innings, but he was left in for the seventh and got tagged for a couple additional runs to miss out on his ninth quality start of the season. It was Abbott's first loss since June 4, and over his last 10 outings he's produced a 3-1 record with a 2.48 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 40:16 K:BB across 61.2 innings.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Stingy in no-decision

  Rotowire Jul 27, 2025

The southpaw left the mound in line for his ninth win of the season, but Graham Ashcraft coughed up a 2-1 lead in the top of the seventh inning. Abbott instead came away with his third straight quality start and his eighth of the year, continuing a dominant stretch that has seen him give up two earned runs or fewer in seven of his last eight outings while posting a 1.99 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 36:9 K:BB over 49.2 innings. Abbott will look to stay locked in for his next start, which is scheduled to come at home next week against Atlanta.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Delivers quality start

  Rotowire Jul 20, 2025

  Abbott did not factor in the decision during Sunday's loss to the Mets. He allowed two runs on six hits and a walk over six innings while striking out five. Abbott coughed up a run in each of the third and fifth innings during his quality start Sunday. He threw 66 of 95 pitches for strikes and forced 11 whiffs, including five with his fastball.

Despite that hiccup, he's allowed two or fewer earned runs in six of his last seven outings, resulting in a 2.06 ERA during that span. Abbott owns an impressive 2.13 ERA with an 88:25 K:BB across 97.1 frames. He's lined up to face the Rays at home next weekend.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Fires shutout in Cleveland

  Rotowire Jun 11, 2025

  Abbott (6-1) picked up the win in Tuesday's 1-0 victory over the Guardians, scattering three hits and a walk over nine scoreless innings. He struck out five. Gabriel Arias got to third base in the second inning after a double and a stolen base, but that was as close as Cleveland got to producing any offense against Abbott. It was the first career shutout for the southpaw, who generated 31 called or swinging strikes among his season-high 110 pitches (77 total strikes), and it continued a dazzling stretch in which he's held the opposition without an earned run in five of eight outings since the beginning of May. Abbott sports a 1.32 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 44:12 K:BB over 47.2 innings during that span, and he'll look to keep rolling in his next start, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Twins.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Saddled with first loss

  Rotowire Jun 4, 2025

  Abbott (5-1) took the loss Wednesday, coughing up five runs on seven hits and a walk over six innings as the Reds were routed 9-1 by the Brewers. He struck out six. The southpaw was very sharp for the most part, generating 36 called or swinging strikes among his 100 pitches (72 total strikes), but a couple offerings caught too much of the plate and got turned into two-run homers by Jackson Chourio in the fifth inning and Daz Cameron in the sixth. It's the first time this season Abbott has served up multiple home runs in a start, and despite the setback he'll take a 2.18 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 59:19 K:BB through 53.2 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come on the road early next week in Cleveland.

  Rotowire May 30, 2025

Abbott generated 12 whiffs on 93 pitches and retired the final 15 batters he faced, completing seven innings for the first time this season. It was an especially impressive effort considering he just limited the vaunted Cubs lineup to one run Saturday. The southpaw improved to 5-0 on the year and has now yielded only eight earned runs across nine starts. He'll carry a 1.51 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 53:18 K:BB across 47.2 innings into a home matchup with the Brewers next week.

• Reds' Andrew Abbott: Walks four in no-decision

  Rotowire May 1, 2025

  Abbott didn't factor in the decision Thursday against the Cardinals after allowing a run on three hits and four walks over four innings. He struck out three. The lone tally against him came during the third inning as St. Louis scored on two singles, an error, a walk and a wild pitch. Abbott was unable to stick around long enough to qualify for the victory thanks to an extended rain delay. It's the second straight start in which the left-hander has walked at least four batters, which is a major jump compared to the three free passes he issued in his first two outings of the season. Abbott's overall numbers this year are still good with a 3.32 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 23:12 K:BB across 19 innings.

He started out nicely by retiring the side in the first, but he gave up a run on a bases-loaded walk in the second inning before yielding three more runs in the third, including a Jordan Beck solo homer.
